The kind of bagel that ruins lesser bagels for you.
Summary
Ivy Meeropol, director of the documentary 'Ask E. Jean' about E. Jean Carroll, responds to reports that the Justice Department has opened a criminal investigation into whether Carroll committed perjury regarding financial support for her lawsuits against Donald Trump. Meeropol calls the reports "unbelievable, yet not surprising," suggesting the investigation appears to be politically motivated retaliation against Carroll for successfully suing Trump for defamation and battery stemming from an alleged incident in the mid-1990s.
