No surprise that Pocahonkey and Buttgig would spread malicious lies. Two very despicable people.

By some accounts, he already does....
You can’t flim flam the Zim Zam!
Clint SHOULD make that film.
I think his case is strong. They both threw Zimmerman under the bus as a racist.
I love it. I hope he cleans their clocks
Judicial Watch seems to only accomplish things now that Tom Fitton is in charge...
Not a fan of GZ, but SUE THEIR ASSES OFF!!
Don’t think Larry Klayman is with Judicial Watch anymore.
Hey GZ....If your lawyer is Larry Klayman, you will LOSE....Klayman is HAPLESS!
POCAHONKEY!!!! LOL!
This is how ya do it, people.
Quit waiting for the Deep Staters to take a switch to their own kind.
Find smart trial lawyers and sue these arseholes personally.
Why should a thug like Cardinal Comey live out his days as a multimillionaire?
I firmly believe that libel lawsuits must be revived as the sovereign remedy for leftist propaganda. In 1964 the Warren Court (Justice Brennan writing for a 9-0 majority with enthusiastic concurrences) made the novel assertion thatIt accuses Ms. Warren and Mr. Buttigieg of actual malice, a prerequisite to win a libel case if one is a public figure.". . . libel can claim no talismanic immunity from constitutional limitations. It must be measured by standards that satisfy the First Amendment”As Antonin Scalia pointed out, that was novel because before 1964 the First Amendment was never understood to touch laws against libel (or, for that matter, pornography). Why?The reason the Bill of Rights was added to the Constitution by amendment was that the Antifederalists demanded it; the Federalists’ viewpoint was that since rights were matters of common law, our rights were nowhere comprehensively enumerated, and it was a fool’s errand to attempt to compose such. The sentiment is codified in the Ninth Amendment, "The enumeration in the Constitution, of certain rights, shall not be construed to deny or disparage others retained by the people.”
So the fact that right to sue for libel was not explicit in the Bill of Rights does not signify that libel law is modified in any way. The issue is whether “the freedom . . . of the press” is “abridged” by libel law. And Scalia’s answer is an emphatic no. He explains that “freedom of the press” would have meant one thing - but “the freedom of the press” means something different. “The” freedom of the press is freedom as it already existed, with existing limitations for libel (and pornography restrictions).
Scalia explained that the need of the Federalists was for a bill of rights which would not be controversial. They weren’t out to modify the rights of the people, but to assure that those rights were not modified. Scalia explained that the rights enumerated in the first eight amendments were only those rights which had historically been abused by tyrants.
“Both defendants, Buttigieg and Warren, are alleged in the complaint to have acted with actual malice, as it is widely known that Zimmerman was acquitted of murder based on self-defense,” the announcement said.
Certainly the “actual malice” should be easily met in this case, but the requirement for meeting that test is illegitimate, since the New York Times Co. v. Sullivan decision which requires it is not good “original intent” law. Beyond that, how is George Zimmerman a “public figure?” Did he ever run for office? All he did was defend his life, and get savaged in the press for exercising his right. George Zimmerman is an actual human person, not a stereotype.
This won’t get to trial.
And if it gets far enough along for discovery to be a concern for the plaintiffs, they’ll settle.
Popcorn get your popcorn...
The two dollars is a ruse. Once they get your info, she and the DNC will bug you for more and more and more!!
Good for George Z. About time someone swung back HARD against the constant flow of vitriol that comes out of “Warren’s mouth.
She couldn’t pass a lie detector test on the Maury Show.
