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.

    Dude I’m watching my country fall apart, and nobody’s doing a god damn thing about it. Of course I’m going to be “aggressive” about it. The question is why is no one else? It’s like you don’t even care!

      I mean, I don’t, 'murica isn’t the center of the universe or the first country to be taken over by a dictator.

        I don’t mean you specifically; I’m talking about Americans in general. Of course you don’t care, cause it’s not your problem. What excuse do US citizens have? Literally all my peers have a similar attitude as you, and they fucking live here.
