Donald Trump is suing CNN!

According to multiple media reports, the 76-year-old filed a 29-page suit against CNN in federal court in Fort Lauderdale, Florida on Monday. In it, Trump claims the cable news network defamed him with their national TV coverage. Oh, and he is seeking punitive damages of $475 million. (!!!)
Seriously?!
According to the lawsuit, the news network has “a long track record” of criticizing Trump (yeah, no s**t), but that all ramped up in the last year because the channel is supposedly fearful he will run for President again in 2024. At the center of the lawsuit’s claims are several instances in which CNN appears to liken Trump with past German dictator Adolf Hitler.
According to the Associated Press, the lawsuit lists out several instances where they say that occurred, including a January 2022 special report on Trump by on-air host Fareed Zakaria that included footage of Hitler. The lawsuit alleges the news network has overly focused on Trump “with a series of ever-more scandalous, false, and defamatory labels of ‘racist,’ ‘Russian lackey,’ ‘insurrectionist,’ and ultimately ‘Hitler.'”

The Congressional January 6 Committee announced earlier today that it would vote on whether to subpoena the former president in its ongoing investigation into the assault.

Arizona Senate candidate Blake Masters said on "The Faulkner Focus" that Big Tech censorship played a crucial role in the 2020 presidential election. Masters said "if everyone followed the law" then Donald Trump would "be in the Oval Office," pointing to how the FBI pressured social media and tech companies, including Facebook, to censor "true information" related to Hunter Biden's corrupt dealings. "In the weeks before the election, millions of people didn't get to read about it, and then the media said, 'oh, well, that's okay, that's just Russian disinformation.' No, it was true,"said Masters.
Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene has become a top surrogate for former President Donald Trump this election cycle, raising speculation the Georgia Republican could be on the short list to be his running mate in 2024. Greene, who was first elected to Congress in 2020, rose to national attention by embracing issues and causes shunned by some Republicans for fear of controversy. The strategy has made Greene a pariah among Democrats, who voted last year to strip her of committee assignments in the House, but popular among the Make America Great Again contingent of Republicans.

Former President Donald Trump on Monday sued CNN, seeking $475 million in damages, saying the network had defamed him in an effort to short-circuit any future political campaign.
Donald Trump fired off his latest defamation lawsuit against a news outlet Monday, this time seeking $475 million in punitive damages from CNN over what his lawyers say was an effort to “defame the Plaintiff in the minds of its viewers and readers for the purpose of defeating him politically.”
as recently as 2020 over an opinion piece titled “Soliciting dirt on your opponents from a foreign government is a crime.” The disposition of multiple such cases, including filed against the New York Times and New York Post in recent years, could not be immediately determined.First Amendment scholars who have spoken to TheWrap said that defamation suits like these are not likely to succeed.The lawsuit takes special issue with alleged comparisons to Hitler, saying it demonstrates “actual malice,” a key component of any defamation action:“Most notably, and, the subject of this complaint, is CNN’s persistent association of the Plaintiff to Adolf Hitler and Nazism. When labels like ‘racist,’ ‘Russian lackey,’ and ‘insurrectionist’ did not have the desired effect to undermine the Plaintiff’s candidacy when running for President or the Plaintiff’s accomplishments as President, CNN upped the stakes to conjure associations between the Plaintiff and arguably the most heinous figure in modern history.”More to come …Loree Seitz contributed to this report.
Every time we hear anything new about Ron DeSantis we’re reminded of the alternate universe that should have been, where his name was a footnote in political comedy history. But instead of being known only for that horribly embarrassing campaign ad where he just kept worshipping Donald Trump, the man actually got elected governor of Florida. Sigh… We live in the worst timeline…
