Breaking — Dominion exec Eric Coomer sues Giuliani, Sidney Powell, Michelle Malkin, and Gateway Pundit…

An election systems worker driven into hiding by death threats has filed a defamation lawsuit against President Donald Trump’s campaign, two of its lawyers and some conservative media figures and outlets.

Eric Coomer, security director at the Colorado-based Dominion Voting Systems, said he wants his life back after being named in false charges as a key actor in “rigging” the election for Joe Biden.

His lawsuit, filed Tuesday in district court in Denver County, Colorado, names the Trump campaign, lawyers Rudy Giuliani and Sidney Powell, conservative columnist Michelle Malkin, the website Gateway Pundit, Colorado conservative activist Joseph Oltmann, and conservative media Newsmax and One America News.

“I have been thrust into the public spotlight by people with political and financial agendas but, at heart, I am a private person,” Coomer said in a statement. “While I intend to do everything I can to recapture my prior lifestyle, I have few illusions in this regard,” he said. “And so, today, I put my trust in the legal process, which has already exposed the truth of the 2020 presidential election.”

Dominion and another voting technology company, Smartmatic, have begun to fight back. After legal threats were made, Fox News Channel and Newsmax in recent days have aired retractions of some claims made on their networks. There was no immediate comment from those named in the lawsuit.

His lawyers said Coomer has become “the face of the false claims.” Coomer’s name first got public exposure in a podcast by Oltmann, who claimed to have heard a strategy call of Antifa activists. When the prospect of a Trump victory was brought up, Oltmann said a man identified as “Eric from Dominion” supposedly said “don’t worry about the election, Trump is not going to win. I made … sure of that,”

ACCORDING TO POLITICO:

https://www.politico.com/news/2020/12/22/dominion-worker-lawsuit-trump-campaign-450212

Fox News Channel is not being sued and Coomer actually uses Fox’s Tucker Carlson to buttress his case. The lawsuit notes a scheduled Powell appearance on Carlson’s show did not happen after she could not provide evidence for her charges.

Coomer told The Associated Press earlier this month that right-wing websites posted his photo, home address and details about his family. Death threats began almost immediately.

He said his father, an Army veteran, received a letter asking, “How does it feel to have a traitor for a son.”

He’s got a lot of nerve. Everyone heard that tape with Eric Coomer saying he would ‘stop that MF;ker’ from winning’, meaning Donald Trump. So, I don’t feel any sympathy for Coomer. He will likely have to live under the wire for a long time, due to the damage he has done and inspired others to do, legal or illegal.

The tape will need verification. Innuendo won’t be enough in the courtroom, if you are a republican.

From the EPOCH TIMES:

Coomer said he doesn’t have any ties with Antifa or other left-wing groups, adding that he was never involved in such a phone call.

“I have a personal political opinion. I may share that with friends and family, but I have never participated, or belonged to, any political groups, political action groups, social justice groups. I do not donate to political campaigns. I don’t donate to any PACs or anything like that,” he said, according to NPR.
