Summary

Donald Trump has amended his lawsuit against CBS, doubling the damages sought to $20 billion.

He also added Texas Congressman Ronny Jackson, his former White House doctor, as a co-plaintiff to keep the suit before a Trump-appointed judge in Texas.

He claims CBS deceptively edited Kamala Harris’ “60 Minutes” interview to make her appear more coherent, allegedly influencing the 2024 election and harming his Truth Social platform.

Filed in Texas, the suit alleges violations of the Lanham Act and Texas consumer protection laws.

CBS argues that the Lanham Act and Texas statute only govern commercial speech, not political or editorial speech, and has moved to dismiss the lawsuit.

    You fucking idiots.

    The instant you bought into it, you signed up for this. He’s going to keep fucking with you. The day after you pay, he’s going to be fucking with you again. The FCC’s going to pull your license. He’s going to sue you again for something you allegedly did in 2014. It’ll never stop, until you actually stand up for yourself.

    And now you’re out $15 million, for nothing. You got nothing at all for it.
