Current Events > Trump suing WSJ/Murdoch over Epstein letter story

(+) Yeah! (+)

Per his propaganda "truth" site

Let him try. I hope they aren't cowards like other companies, though.

if they buckle under the pressure i won't be happy about it.

I'm sure they anticipated this considering the guy sues everyone for everything

Stable door, horse, etc.

Let them fight, etc.

Lol piss off Rupert Murdoch. Brilliant idea.

Murdoch seems like the kind of guy who would totally team up with Musk to kill off the Republican party and replace it with his own personal brand of bullshit.

God, Murdoch is 94?

Evil lives long

Neither god nor the devil is especially keen on having him for company.

honestly i'm just surprised he didn't have the headquarters stormed.

Probably too much of a risk.

I kinda feel like if Murdoch and him did get dragged out into a full legal fight it would be embarrassing for the president to find himself in that situation

but think about discovery. that could be wild.

trump controls the highest court in the land. they'll just rule that any civil litigation a republican president levies against someone is a win for them by default for them.

i can promise you that he brought up the idea. maybe one of his advisors decided going full dictator wasn't the correct decision yet and distracted him with jingling keys?

Victory goes to the highest bidder.

You guys remember when John Oliver tried to bribe Clarence Thomas on his show to never work again?

He didn't do that as a joke necessarily. He did it to show he can openly try to bribe a supreme court justice and face no punishment whatsoever. That should be concerning.

JD Vance "Oh come on does anyone really think this sounds like Trump?"

Me.

Fuck yes?

Never underestimate Murdoch.

That evil old bastard has made governments and buried them.

So much for freedom of the press

Freedom of the press as long as they suck up to Trump.

TACO. We all know who has whose balls in a vice and it ain't Trump on the good end of that vice.

He probably thinks because he beat Musk he can take on Murdock, stronger leaders than Donny have tried and failed so miserably they were begging for "Daddy Murdoch" to put their political career out of its misery by the time he was done.

Gonna be fun watching Trump try to take on, arguably, the single most influential and evil man of the post-world war world. My guess is one day this will just disappear and when Trump is asked about it he'll say it doesn't sound like something he'd say.

I agree. Musk only has the title of richest man on earth, but he isnt necessarily part of the real ruling elite. Think he was trying to be with all the shit hes done lately.

Don't underestimate Rupert Murdoch. He could easily bring Trump to kneel with a bit of pressure.

It's like he's on his own private island.

Except all the girls are old with blonde hair lying into mics this time.

He could take his cues from his friend Bibi. Tell the journalists they have one hour to evacuate, can't take anything with them, and then bomb the building to cinders with all their work and equipment and infrastructure in it.

What possible risk can he face? He's going to kill some 300,000 kids globally because he cut USAID. He's going to kill who knows how many veterans and LGBT kids because he's cutting service to crisis hotlines for both of them. He killed 900,000 Americans during Covid (because, per his own admin, anything over the first 100,000 was preventable). He killed cops on Jan 6 and almost killed his VP and the Congress. He's killed at least one person in his ICE raids that we know of, plus how many we don't know about in the El Salvador gulag or the Florida concentration camp.

Zero consequences.

What risk would he have sending his jackboots through his "lugenpresse" to toss and torch it, let alone shell it?

I know it sounds kind of doomer at this point, but it sure feels like there are no brakes on the train anymore, and I've been struggling to find hope as I watch 60,000 tons of food for kids get burned instead of feeding them, among other atrocities.

we were screwed the moment biden and his presidency decided not to treat trump and his jan 6th seditionists as enemies of the state.

I mean, traditionally, yeah, but that version also works.

On bluesky it was pointed out that he should not be able to sue when we cannot sue him.
