The reporting

A neutral summary of the key facts most outlets agree on, drawn from reporting across the political spectrum.

The Supreme Court on Monday denied President Donald Trump’s petition for rehearing in E. Jean Carroll’s 2023 civil case, leaving intact a $5 million jury verdict against him. The justices had already refused in June to review Trump’s appeal, and the new unsigned order gave no explanation. The jury found Trump liable for sexually abusing Carroll at a New York department store in the mid-1990s and defaming her in 2022. Carroll’s representatives said she has received the money.
