President Donald Trump is suing the publisher and owner of the Wall Street Journal and seeking damages of $10 billion for defamation.
Last week, the paper published an article describing a letter Trump sent to disgraced, self-styled financier Jeffrey Epstein for his 50th birthday in 2003. That letter reportedly included a lewd drawing. The president says — without evidence — that he didn't write the letter. The Journal's publisher says they will defend against the lawsuit.
In a post on Truth Social, the president wrote the lawsuit was filed "not only on behalf of your favorite President, ME, but also in order to continue standing up for ALL Americans who will no longer tolerate the abusive wrongdoings of the Fake News Media."
We discuss the president's legal action — and the threat of it — against the media.
Republicans are nullifying bipartisan budget deals and planning a mid-decade redistricting to try to hold the House after the midterms. Trump is methodically working to crush dissent in the media, chill major Dem donors, and shut down the party's online fundraising portal, ActBlue. One political party is breaking all the norms, while the other is trying to stick to them. Sen. Murphy tells Tim that democracies die when the rules change and the opposition refuses to adapt. Meanwhile, Trump's detention regime is not only making prison-builders filthy rich, it will also likely draw in ICE candidates eager to abuse their power. Plus, Epstein is a bad story for the administration no matter how you slice it, and Tim shares his thoughts about Hunter.
On this episode of "The Federalist Radio Hour," Beth Akers, a senior fellow at the American Enterprise Institute, joins Federalist Senior Elections Correspondent Matt Kittle to discuss the U.S. Supreme Court's decision weighing in on the Trump administration's plans to gut the Department of Education. Akers and Kittle also analyze what it would take to fully dismantle or at least check the taxpayer-funded education arm of the federal bureaucracy.
