I'm Ben Mycelis from the Midas Touch Network. This is one of the most bizarre things I have reported on. Donald Trump has filed the most frivolous lawsuit yet. This lawsuit that he filed is against the Pulitzer Prize board for defamation because Donald Trump alleges that the Pulitzer Prize board defamed him by providing the Pulitzer Prize award to the New York Times and the Washington Post in 2018 for their coverage of Donald Trump's links to Russia and those in Trump's inner circles links to Russia. When I first heard about this, I said, this can't possibly be real because short of the lawsuit involving space aliens coming down and causing injury, which of course is an absurd proposition, but you could imagine the courts from time to time getting just completely deranged and wacky lawsuits. This is kind of right up there with it. I mean, Donald Trump has just completely lost his mind at this stage. I mean, I could try to break down this lawsuit for you. I'll try to, but this is what Donald Trump actually alleges in this complaint. I'll just quote from it. He goes while elements at both the New York Times and the Washington Post were almost certainly complicit in the Russia collusion hoax is ultimately immaterial whether the authors of the awarded articles understood at the time they were propagating political disinformation, manufactured by paid sources in an attempt to mislead the public and tarnish President Trump's reputation and the political prospects. The lawsuit goes on to say what matters instead is the defendant's conduct. They're referring to the board of the Pulitzer Prize. What matters instead is the defendant's conduct, particularly when many of the key assertions and premises of the Russia collusion hoax that permeated the awarded articles had been revealed by the Mueller report and congressional investigations as false after the 2018 Pulitzer Prize in national reporting had been awarded. I truly hope the lawyers who filed this lose their license. I truly hope this is the biggest waste of time, the biggest abuse of our legal system, the most deranged. I would say it's laughable. It's comical, but Donald Trump is propagating disinformation here, doing it intentionally, utilizing our court system to do that. He's going to lose the case. He's going to eventually get sanctioned for this. I have a great degree of confidence for that. But let's talk about how

the news of this lawsuit spread. And generally, this is a tactic that's always been utilized by Trump. And the tactic is he files a completely ridiculous, absurd, and sanctionable lawsuit. He essentially loses all of his cases. And not only does he lose his cases, his lawyers usually get sanctioned. He's usually found in contempt. I mean, just recently, we learned that he was held in contempt. The Trump organization was in the New York criminal trial. He was held in contempt in the New York attorney generals, civil investigation of the Trump organization's fraud. They were held in civil contempt there. They were just sanctioned by a judge in the Southern District of Florida, the first set of sanctions against Trump's lawyer, Alina Haba for filing a completely frivolous lawsuit back in March of 2022. And by the way, that March of 2022 federal case in the Southern District of Florida, that was a Rico and racketeering lawsuit alleging these conspiracies between like 40 or so individuals named as defendants, including Hillary Clinton and other people. And they didn't even get like the people's titles, right? Or even where they lived, yet alone, a basic, accurate factual recitation, yet alone, actually assert any claims as all. I mean, literally, when the judge sanctioned Trump recently or sanctioned Trump's lawyer recently in that case in the Southern District of Florida, the judge basically said, this was not a, you didn't file a case. You just literally put Trump's ranting and ravings on pieces of paper and submitted it to the court, like every single statement, not just one, every single statement here was false. And it wasn't just false because you're a horrible lawyer, like you were intentionally providing all of this false and completely deranged information to the court with the intent to deceive is essentially what the Southern District of Florida wrote. So he's getting sanctioned. He's losing all of his cases, to mention the 2020 cases where he lost literally every election case that he filed. They were just based on complete and utter conspiracies. But the tactic is you file the lawsuit, then you give it to Fox so that Fox can give you the headline that you want. And that's what happened here. So he files the lawsuit and the Fox headline is Trump files defamation suit against members
