Tulsi Gabbard sues Hillary Clinton for $50M
NBC ^ | Jan 22 2020 | Erik Ortiz

Democratic presidential candidate Rep. Tulsi Gabbard filed a defamation lawsuit Wednesday against Hillary Clinton seeking $50 million in damages, claiming the former Democratic presidential nominee "carelessly and recklessly impugned" her reputation when she suggested in October that one of the 2020 Democratic candidates is "the favorite of the Russians."

The lawsuit, filed in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York, says it aims to hold Clinton and other "political elites" accountable for "distorting the truth in the middle of a critical Presidential election." It also says Gabbard suffered an economic loss to be proven at trial.

Wow! Hillary will have a bad day.

It’ll be far worse if the case goes to discovery.

Clintoon will settle out of court...one way or the other, if you all get my drift.

They dare NOT let this get to discovery.

Settle it with a push up contest ladies. Tulsi can do A pushup for every shot of vodka Hillary bolts down. It will go hours.

Hillabitch will settle this with a horse head in Tulsi’s bed.

She may be an addlepated drunk but is still dangerous when crossed.

Two things:

1. Geaux Ms. Tulsi!

2. Start “the pool” at a nickel a square!

Higher standard for a public figure, she would have to prove actual malice. Frankly, I don’t think it would be that hard to prove...

Ms. Gabbard can't be that stupid.

Unless there's information missing, no one was mentioned by name

Thank god Tulsi Gabbard will never be President.

BTW Tulsi, They said Trump was favored by Russians too...And now he's the President.
