President Donald Trump pledged to “continue the fight” in his appeal of a New York jury’s unanimous ruling that he defamed and sexually assaulted writer E. Jean Carroll and owes her $5 million in damages, despite the Supreme Court’s decision not to hear the case.

Trump previously asked the Supreme Court to overturn the case, but the Court announced Monday that it would not take up his appeal.

“Surprisingly, the Supreme Court declined to ‘review’ a Fake Case brought against me by a woman I never met (Decades old celebrity photo line, standing with her husband, does not count!),” the president wrote on Truth Social Monday morning. “I will continue the fight against this Weaponization and Lawfare Case against me, including the ridiculous claim of Defamation, with all of my power and strength.

Trump claimed that the case “is really against the United States of America, and all it stands for, and should never be allowed to happen to another President, or Candidate to be!”

“New York State created a Law, for an instant speck of time, going back many decades, in order to wrongfully ‘nab’ me. It was tailormade, and this Injustice cannot be allowed to stand!,” he concluded.

The Carroll news was just one part of a slate of losses the Supreme Court handed to the president on Monday.

The Court additionally struck down a challenge to a Mississippi law allowing mail-in ballots to be counted up to five days after Election Day, as long as they were postmarked by the time polls closed, and blocked him from firing Lisa Cook from the Federal Reserve Board of Governors, ruling that the administration had denied Cook due process while the legal battle ensued.

The court, however, allowed Trump to proceed with his firing of Federal Trade Commission Commissioner Rebecca Slaughter.
