What they're saying: NYT spokesperson Danielle Rhoades said in an emailed statement that the Times planned to "vigorously defend" the lawsuit, which she said was "an attempt to silence independent news organizations." She said the Times' coverage of Trump's taxes "helped inform citizens through meticulous reporting on a subject of overriding public interest."

Mary Trump told responded to the suit by telling the Daily Beast that her uncle was a "loser" who was acting out of "desperation." "The walls are closing in and he is throwing anything against the wall that will stick," she said. "As is always the case with Donald, he’ll try and change the subject."

When I read he added "the 45th President of the United States," as if it added weight to his complaint, I had a chuckle.

Self promoting stuff on your website is supposed to make you sound pretty good.

As Somerset noted, the Super Lawyers thing is a joke. The publishing company sells a ton of ad space to lawyers trying to polish their reputations. More $$ = more "recognition."

I was wondering about that, does that make the claim semi-official perhaps? Could a party argue to dismiss the claims cause they were not made in his personal private capacity?

It's the lawyer kissing his ample ass.

And it's possible her free legal services may still cost the OSG in the end. He may come out with even less than what he started with.

Litigating NDA violations can be like litigating patent infringement. Sometimes you win the infringement/violation case and get awarded damages. But sometimes you don't win, and in the process of losing you may also end up getting your patent or NDA invalidated. When that happens, you not only lose your first case, you also lose any other benefits you were getting from your patent or NDA. The OSG's NDAs were already starting to weaken from previous losses, and this case may well weaken them even more.

tfg was on a tear yesterday. Apparently, not only did he win, but also two Republican Senators in GA, one in AZ, and one in MI won as well.

I spent virtually no time with Senators Mike Lee of Utah, or Lindsey Graham of South Carolina, talking about the 2020 Presidential Election Scam or, as it is viewed by many, the “Crime of the Century.” Lindsey and Mike should be ashamed of themselves for not putting up the fight necessary to win. Look at the facts that are coming out in Arizona, Georgia, Michigan, Pennsylvania, Wisconsin, and other States. If this were Schumer and the Democrats, with the evidence we have of Election Fraud (especially newly revealed evidence), they would have never voted to approve Biden as President, and had they not, all of the mistakes that were made over the last month, which are destroying our Country, would not have happened. Mike Lee, Lindsey Graham, and all of the other Republicans who were unwilling to fight for the Presidency of the United States, which would have included at least an additional four Republican Senators, two in Georgia, one in Michigan, one in Arizona, are letting the Democrats get away with the greatest Election Hoax in history—a total con job!

We are losing our Country! The Democrats are vicious and fight like hell, and the Republicans do nothing about it. RINOs fight harder against Republicans than they do against Democrats. They want to be so politically correct, even if that means losing our Country, which is happening now. The evidence on determinative and wide-ranging Election Fraud is staggering. Your Republican Presidential candidate won in a landslide, but has so little backing from Republican “leadership.” They should be ashamed of themselves. Why don’t they have hearings? Or even if just Republicans had open public sessions, we would all hear the irrefutable facts. Remember, the Fake News Media does not report the truth!

Why is the Fake News Media continuing on their path of saying, “baseless and disproven lies,” concerning the Presidential Election of 2020, no matter how much evidence they see? These phrases are coordinated propaganda by Lamestream. It is an automatic phrase they use about the 2020 Election Scam when in fact it was just the opposite. The proof is massive and staggering. The Presidential Election of 2020 was Rigged! When the information becomes public, people will see that it wasn’t even close.

Contradicts himself only sentences later, has the evidence been seen, or is it still coming?

So, the Az fraudit has to be redone to fix the Senate. Another 6 months aughta keep the FUD going till deep into the election cycle.

When the truth is finally revealed about Obama, he'll be thrown in prison.

Was just thinking earlier how much I miss having a Kenyan as President.
