DONALD Trump has been sued for defamation by members of the Central Park 5 – the group wrongfully accused and convicted of assault in 1989.
The lawsuit, filed in New York, accuses the former president of making numerous false and misleading public statements about the five men, including the nationally televised presidential debate on September 10.

Trump’s statement came in response to Vice President Kamala Harris’ comments about his lengthy history with the men of the Central Park 5 – Antron McCray, Kevin Richardson, Raymond Santana, Korey Wise, and Yusef Salaam.
The Republican presidential nominee again asserted that the five men had previously pleaded guilty and the group “killed a person ultimately.”
The lawsuit argues that Trump’s continued “pattern of extreme and outrageous conduct” against the five men has inflicted emotional distress.
“Defendant Trump has previously made numerous public statements demonstrating that he is familiar with the Central Park assaults, the criminal case, the trials, the exoneration and the settlement with the City, and that he therefore knew that the statements he made on September 10, 2024, were false and misleading,” the suit reads.
“Like his statement at the September 10 debate, many of Defendant Trump’s past statements are themselves false, defamatory and part of a continuing pattern of extreme and outrageous conduct directed at Plaintiffs.”

A HOLLYWOOD actress was barely recognizable when she was spotted on camera at a baseball game.

The 39-year-old was seen with her husband, SNL star Colin Jost, in a private suite for the MLB game at Citi Field.
Johansson was seen on the FS1 broadcast rocking glasses and a hat that said “THE MET”, in reference to The Metropolitan Museum of Art.
The hat poked fun at the fact she doesn’t have an allegiance with the Mets and that the New York native is a Yankees fan.
The Staten Island native Jost, however, wore a Mets hat.
Fans reacted to Johnsson’s appearance, with some not recognizing her, due to her not wearing makeup or lipstick, and others in hysterics over her headwear choice.
“Is that her?” one asked.
“Scarlett Johansson at the #LADvsNYM game with Colin Jost wearing a hat that says ‘The Met’ on it actually deserves an Emmy,” another commented.
“Scarlett Johansson wearing a met museum hat is absolutely genius and hilarious i love her,” a third wrote.
“Iconic,” a fourth added about her hat.
Johannson grew up idolizing Yankees legend Derek Jeter and said that she “used to keep his rookie card in my wallet.”
In 2021, she spoke to Parade and opened up about her and Jost’s New York baseball rivalry.
“It’s a sore subject,” Johannson told the publication.
“He just told me that he’d rather see the [Boston] Red Sox win than the Yankees win.
“Like, what?! I said I was just going to ignore that.”

Unfortunately for Jost, the Mets lost 10-2 to the Dodgers, who took a 3-1 series lead following the game.
The Dodgers lost Game 5 but traveled to Los Angeles and won Game 6 to advance to the World Series.
Fortunately for Johannson, the Yankees beat the Guardians in Game 5 on Saturday night and will be in the World Series.
There will be no Subway Series for the Hollywood couple.
The two MLB teams have played each other just once on the big stage, as the Yankees beat the Mets in 5 games in 2000.
It was the Yankees’ third title win in a row.
The Dodgers and the Yankees will face each other in the World Series for the first time since 1981, as the latter team is 8-3 against LA in WS meetings.

A TIKTOKER made $125 in four minutes with a “junk” side hustle – he’s on track to make over $1,00,000 because of avoiding a big mistake.
The self-starter says all you need is a pickup truck and a particular attitude for this job.
Hunter is known as DumpireJunkRemoval on TikTok | TikTok/DumpireJunkRemovalHe removed all of this rubbish in about four minutes and got paid for it | TikTok/DumpireJunkRemovalHunter says all you need is a pickup truck | TikTok/DumpireJunkRemoval
He picks up and removes junk for clients and earns thousands of dollars from it – in fact, he’s set to make six figures by the end of the year.
In this particular TikTok, Hunter pulled up outside a client’s garage at 2:46 pm.
By 2:50 pm, he had removed about a dozen bags of garbage from the garage to his trailer.
Once back in his truck, Hunter said most of the garbage was quite lightweight so it should only cost $5 to dump at a landfill.
In other TikToks, Hunter explains there are a bunch of different places you can dump your junk like transfer stations, scrap yards etc but he chooses landfills because they’re cheaper.
Although Hunter has a trailer, he assured his 68,800 followers that they aren’t essential for this job.
TIPS FOR SUCCESS
Ultimately, what baffles Hunter the most is why people think side hustles like his are so complicated.
He explained: “If you work hard, if you’re willing to do the work, and you’re willing to show up and you’re a nice person, that’s all it takes for you to do good business.”
Hunter even pointed out the exact mistake people make as they’re self-starting.
It all comes down to a lack of guidance.
He explained: “So they go in with no information, they blow a bunch of money on equipment when they could have saved so much money and be able to start your own junk removal company without putting 10,000 overhead.
“They don’t know how to quote and they can’t get jobs.
Hunter believes: “It’s all about having guidance and somebody in your corner.”
He claims you “don’t need any experience”, but guidance is essential.
And he is willing to offer that guidance in his masterclasses to help beginners maximize their earnings.
Hunter advertises his side hustle on Facebook and so far he has earned gleaming reviews.
One person said: “Hunter came out and took away years of broken and useless items. What a blessing.
“Nicest guy you ever met and did a great job. Prices are the best around. HIGHLY RECOMMEND calling Hunter.”
While a second said: Hunter and Hailey are two of the nicest and hardest working young adults I think I’ve ever met!
“They are just starting their business and they have such a great work ethic and plan.
“I’ve used several movers in the past who I’d never use again (price changed when they finished job, didn’t move all the furniture they’d agreed to even though they had seen the furniture to be moved when they gave initial quote).
“Even though landfill disposal had literally doubled in price since Hunter quoted me the cost of job, he did not change his quote.
“He is eager to please and he will certainly succeed with his motivation and passion to grow his business.”
And a third said: “Would definitely recommend Dumpire Junk Removal!
“Hunter and his team provided quick and amazing service at my residence. Great communication and very professional.”
Tax implications with side hustles
According to the IRS, “you must file a tax return if you have net earnings from self-employment of $400 or more from gig work, even if it’s a side job, part-time or temporary”.
What is gig work?
Drive a car for booked rides or deliveries
Rent out property or part of it
Run errands or complete tasks
Sell goods online
Rent equipment
Provide creative or professional services
Provide other temporary, on-demand or freelance work
