Brought on to talk about former Attorney General Pam Bondi\u2019s appearance before members of the House Oversight Committee on Friday, where the fired former Trump official was described as \u201ccombative\u201d and unwilling to talk about the president, the New Mexico Democrat also weighed in on reports that Trump\u2019s DOJ is looking at investigating Trump sexual abuse victim E. Jean Carroll.<\/p>\n

\u201cWhat are your thoughts on this?\u201d Witt prompted her guest.<\/p>\n

\u201cI mean, come on, Donald Trump, we all know that you are an adjudicated rapist, and now you’re going after survivors that have held you accountable\u201d Stansbury responded.<\/p>\n

\u201cAll of this is an attempt to try to silence people and to try to intimidate them by using the United States Justice Department as a weapon against the American people,\u201d she continued before recalling, \u201cAnd that is exactly what Richard Nixon went down for. So we can see what’s happening here.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cYeah,\u201d the MS NOW host replied before quickly adding, \u201cI just want to be careful because President Trump was not accused of rape, per se \u2014 he was accused of sexual abuse; so going by the proper terminology there.\u201d<\/p>\n

According to a report from the Washington Post, Judge Lewis Kaplan, who oversaw the trial, wrote, \u201cThe finding that Ms. Carroll failed to prove that she was \u2018raped\u2019 within the meaning of the New York Penal Law does not mean that she failed to prove that Mr. Trump \u2018raped\u2019 her as many people commonly understand the word \u2018rape.\u2019 Indeed, as the evidence at trial recounted below makes clear, the jury found that Mr. Trump in fact did exactly that.\u201d<\/p>\n
