Breaking: E. Jean Carroll moved to the collect $5,779,783 from the bond Trump deposited in the court's registry, since that verdict reached the "end of the line" at SCOTUS. Trump's lawyers are still trying to delay, per the filing.
The Court should enforce the plain language of the existing Stipulation and Order and
direct immediate disbursement of funds held in the CRIS. Defendant Trump obtained a stay of
execution pending appeal only by explicitly agreeing that the funds placed in the Court’s account
would be disbursed upon the conditions set out in the Stipulation and Order. Those conditions
were satisfied when the Supreme Court denied his petition for certiorari. Nothing in the Stipulation
and Order, the Federal Rules, or the Supreme Court’s Rules permits him to disregard the parties’
agreement subsequently so ordered by Your Honor based on the fact that he is considering seeking
reconsideration of the denial of certiorari.2 Accordingly, the Court should direct the Clerk to
disburse to Carroll the value of the judgment including post-judgment interest, which amounts to
$5,779,783.00 in total as of the date of this filing.

Clarence Thomas says the 14th Amendment should be read narrowly because it was written for formerly enslaved people. By that logic, the 2nd Amendment was written for muskets, not AR-15s. Funny how that kind of originalism only shows up when it's convenient.
