Summary

Donald Trump has amended his lawsuit against CBS, doubling the damages sought to $20 billion.

He also added Texas Congressman Ronny Jackson, his former White House doctor, as a co-plaintiff to keep the suit before a Trump-appointed judge in Texas.

He claims CBS deceptively edited Kamala Harris’ “60 Minutes” interview to make her appear more coherent, allegedly influencing the 2024 election and harming his Truth Social platform.

Filed in Texas, the suit alleges violations of the Lanham Act and Texas consumer protection laws.

CBS argues that the Lanham Act and Texas statute only govern commercial speech, not political or editorial speech, and has moved to dismiss the lawsuit.

    You know….

    It’s weird how mind-blowingly obnoxious far lefters are about gEnOciDe.

    Especially when we all spent months and months telling them this shit was going to happen. And all we heard in response was “gEnOciDe!” And now- it’s SO much worse than before, that you need to take your complaints and get in line behind:

    • Systemic Government Mandated Racism

    • The Official Erasure of any acknowledgement that trans people exist.

    • A Nazi running our financial department.

    • And the EXACT SAME FUCKING GENOCIDE THAT WAS HAPPENING BEFORE, but now- with a sparkling exodus to wash it down with.

    Seriously… If you thought no one was paying attention back when you all were saying your ”bUt mUh bOtH siDeS tHiNG!”

    if you thought you weren’t being heard then….

    Rest assured that a LOT less people are listening to it now. And it’s not that anyone is in denial of it. Or minimizing it. No. It that now, everyone is too busy trying to figure out how to protect their children, their partners, and their parents from the consequent of

    mUh gEnoCiDe!:” Campaign 2024.

    People are leaving America in droves to get away from the pain that we were told would be brought to us.

    We all fucking tried to stop this from happening. We all told you what would happen. We pleaded to be taken seriously. And you called us genocide supporters and fascists. And now, all you can do is point your finger at someone that has absolutely NOTHING to do with this and whine about shit that doesn’t even matter any more?

    Seriously… WTF? You people really will go to no end that exists within time or space to avoid the consequences of what you did.

    Palestine is either going to be a glass crater, or all Palestinians will be banished from their homeland.

    Tell me… honestly-

    Did you see all this happening when you told everyone how “bOtH siDeS aRe tHe sAmE”?

        This you?

        That’s what I say to all the braindeads who voted for the worst presidential candidate in history Ms. Holocaust Harris.

        Sure looks to me like you’re trying to blame the people that actually voted.

        Go sit down.

            I mean, you just hypocritically accused me of something you did yourself. What context is there to miss?

              I’m mocking the people who believe their own self-serving version of it because they can’t see past their own bluemagabrainrot. You’ll catch up one day buddy! Have a great day

                Your comment history is hilarious when read in context with your response.

                Self-serving indeed.

                  “I hope they all enjoy the beds they made. I sincerely hope the cacaphony of all the suffering they cause doesn’t keep them all awake at night.”

                  “Does anyone else remember the right losing anything with dignity?”

                  Quotes from bluemaga guy who is now losing his dignity trying to morally high ground people with stronger morals.

                  What was that bit about self-serving?
