Summary
Donald Trump has launched a series of legal actions against major news outlets, including the New York Times, CBS News, and the Washington Post, demanding billions in damages for alleged defamatory coverage.
A letter from Trump’s attorney accuses the Times of engaging in “industrial-scale libel” and targets articles scrutinizing Trump’s business and political conduct.
Legal complaints have also been filed over CBS’s alleged pro-Kamala Harris edits and Washington Post articles purportedly aiding her campaign.
Legal experts warn that such litigation could have a “chilling effect” on journalism, especially for smaller outlets.
There is a razor sharp golden sword that will be wielded against the government called the First Amendment. Fuck off orange pumpkin!
When the idiots have captured essentially every branch of the government there’s no one left who will bother enforcing the constitution against themselves.
