Democratic White House contender Gabbard sues Hillary Clinton for 'Russian asset' comment
Democratic presidential contender Tulsi Gabbard sued Hillary Clinton for defamation on Wednesday, seeking at least $50 million in damages for harming her reputation by suggesting last year that one of the party's White House contenders was a "Russian asset."
SNIP
"That's ridiculous," Clinton spokesman Nick Merrill said of the lawsuit.
Clinton, the Democratic presidential nominee in 2016, had said on a podcast in October that Russians were grooming one of the Democratic presidential candidates for a third-party bid, but did not name the candidate.
"She's the favorite of the Russians, they have a bunch of sites and bots and other ways of supporting her so far, and that's assuming Jill Stein will give it up, which she might not, because she's also a Russian asset," Clinton said.
Stein was the Green Party candidate in the 2016 presidential election.
After the podcast comments, Merrill confirmed to Politico that Clinton was referring to Gabbard.
The Gabbard lawsuit said Clinton had refused to apologize or retract the comments, which it described as "devastating to a United States politician's reputation," and made them knowing they were false.
SNIP
As a public figure, Gabbard must show that the defendant acted with actual malice to recover damages. In addition, U.S. courts have said "rhetorical hyperbole" associated with politics is constitutionally protected speech.

After Clinton's comments in October, Gabbard said the former first lady, U.S. senator and secretary of state was the "embodiment of corruption and personification of the rot that has sickened the Democratic Party for so long."

HEY TULSI, HILLARY KNEW WHO WAS THE REAL ROT IN THE DEMOCRATIC PARTY.
YOU & YOUR PAL JILL STEIN!

(18,252 posts)There were others as well who defended Gabbard and thought it was outrageous to suggest that she was a foreign asset.
They need to take responsibility and apologize. Anyone so easily fooled doesn't have the requisite judgement to be "explaining" things to readers.

(11,599 posts)Thank you for posting this. I never trusted her plus she's a bigot against the LGBTQ community.

(15,325 posts)She started the bs with the DNC, defending Nina Turner in 2016 FL Dem convention. Turner wanted a speaking spot & was denied due to her not being a headliner & speaker time spots were full. Nina got her usual insulted self, Tulsi defended her & started the shit show against Wasserman-Schulz. Same time Assange & Wikileaks, Intercept & Greenwald threw their media fit.
Tulsi was at the head of that staged bullshit.

We're not the Repukes, we need to vet our candidates. Gabbard is a traitor and she compromised our Party.
