“The ‘Times’ has engaged in a decades-long method of lying about your Favorite President (ME!), my family, business, the America First Movement, MAGA, and our Nation as a whole,” Trump said.

US President Donald Trump said he will file a 15 billion dollar defamation and libel lawsuit against The New York Times, accusing the newspaper of running what he called a decades-long “method of lying” against him, his family and the America First movement.
Trump described the lawsuit as the largest illegal campaign contribution ever, alleging that the Times had effectively become a “mouthpiece” for the Democratic Party. He also criticised the newspaper’s front-page endorsement of Vice President Kamala Harris. “The ‘Times’ has engaged in a decades-long method of lying about your Favourite President (ME!), my family, business, the America First Movement, MAGA, and our Nation as a whole,” Trump said.
Trump’s move follows his threat last week to sue the Times after it reported on a sexually suggestive note and drawing given to financier Jeffrey Epstein for his 50th birthday in 2003. The note appeared to carry Trump’s signature, though the president and his aides deny involvement.
