I loved the background/intro Rachel did on E. Jean also. I didn't know any of that stuff about her.

Lawrence was great tonight, too. Watching those 2 shows back to back was like watching a 2 hour E. Jean Carroll special. Between the 2, I came away with a much greater understanding of just how important and historic that case is!

And does set a precedent, especially for TFG. Not to mention the amount of courage it took for Ms. Carroll to put herself through that. Here's hoping that this is the first of a series of major courtroom defeats for him. We've all put up with his offensive bullying BS for far too long.
