      The sixth amendment has been leaky for a while with exceptions, especially for cases like this. But many forget there is a baseline expectation here.

    2. Same women who couldn’t do basic math while being interviewed about being the Secretary of Education.

      “Let’s further victimize the victims!”, the MAGA “Christian”, pedophile supporter, cult!

    4. Why exactly do they think it’ll harm their defense? Surely they’d have to give a reason rather than just saying that.

    5. This is, right now, only for per-trial, the discovery phase, and not necessarily for the entirety of the lawsuit and would face further challenges if they attempted to remain anonymous when and if they actually went to trial. It keeps the McMahons from using public humiliation or the threat of public humiliation to short circuit the lawsuit at its early stages, and allows the parties to get through discovery and into a more level playing field in settlement negotiations before a trial

    6. Linda McMahon having any involvement or opinion on sexual abuse victims is abhorrent.

      The same Linda McMahon who’s married to serial sexual abuser and sexual predator Vince McMahon, who’s also suspected of sex trafficking.

      Yes, that’s right, Linda McMahon, who is fine with her husband being a known sexual predator, and who knows absolutely nothing about education, or the department thereof.

      That Linda McMahon, who despite that total lack of knowledge, experience or qualification was appointed to her position because she’s friends with Donald Trump, also a serial sexual abuser and sexual predator (proven in civil court), and who is also suspected, with substantial evidence pending that he is currently covering up, to also be a pedophile and child sex trafficker who was best friends with convicted pedophile and child sex trafficker Jeffrey Epstein for more than a decade.

      Yes… that Linda McMahon.

      The amount of people who are sexual predators who are white Christian nationalists is insane

    8. These Trump appointees were chosen to forster his policies and weaken the agencies

      Trying to force abuse victims to publicly identify themselves just to intimidate them into dropping the lawsuit is a special kind of evil tbh. and this person is literally in charge of our education system right now.

    10. Is this before or after they forced a secretary to attend an orgy then shat on her face?

      Boy Republicans sure do love non consensual sex and weird fetishes!

      Sick puppies. Every single one of them.

    11. The podcast Behind the Bastards, which covers some of the worst people in history, did a 6 part series on Vince McMahon (obviously Linda was a big part of the later episodes).

      For reference, Epstein got 4 episodes. Take from that what you will about how much the McMahons are horrible people.

      We have to accept this president intentionally surrounds himself with flawed people like this. They all seem to have connections to sexual abusers, fraudsters, thieves, or worse. It’s like he resented the mostly honorable people from his first term, so decided to pick degenerates and sadists like him this time.

    13. Why do we as a society keep allowing humans like this to exist in our society? Like genuinely.

      sounds like the Epstein regime has found a co-partner in sexually abusing young individuals. Reminder: DJT had this WWF on the front lawn of the WH. Apparently he likes to be around sexual abusers?

      Par for the course for Republicans. Republicans openly support child molestation, pedophilia, pedophiles, child rape, as well as regular rape and sexual assault. Its pretty much the universal thing that all Republicans support
