Michael Wolff Launches Bombshell Lawsuit Against Melania Trump over Epstein

The best-selling author Michael Wolff is suing Melania Trump in an unprecedented court case—after she threatened to sue him for $1 billion. The author, who is co-host of The Daily Beast’s hit podcast, Inside Trump’s Head, is accusing the First Lady of launching an assault on his free speech and trying to stifle “legitimate inquiry” into Jeffrey Epstein.

The case is the first time Melania Trump has been sued as First Lady and appears to be the first time a president’s wife has been the subject of court action. Wolff is asking the court for permission to question Melania and Donald Trump under oath about their dealings with Epstein. Wolff’s attorneys filed the case in a New York State court late Tuesday after the First Lady’s legal team sent him a letter threatening a lawsuit for “over $1 billion in damages.”

Melania accused Wolff of making “false, defamatory, and lewd statements” in a letter from her attorney Alejandro Brito, saying he had made “extremely salacious” allegations that have reached tens of millions of people worldwide. The letter from Brito demanded that he retract statements including that Epstein had claimed Melania first slept with Trump on the late pedophile’s private jet—or face being sued for at least $1 billion. Wolff is using so-called anti-SLAPP laws for the case. The laws ban powerful people from using legal actions to shut down journalism, which are known as Strategic Lawsuits Against Public Participation.

1. Melanoma's "coin" was initiated at over $12. Now it under ten cents. She's not feeling rich enough. . . . . nt

3. HE ACCUSES WOLF OF DEFAMING HER?

She posed nude in magazines multiple times (which conservative outlets refuse to mention, the same ones who criticized Obama's wife for wearing a sleeveless gown) and her photo as Vampirella has been seen around the world where she is barely wearing any clothes at all.

7. That once put me in Facebook Jail for a week

I saw a post on Facebook criticizing Mrs. Obama and the sleeveless dress, so I responded with a link to the NY Post article "Melania Trump like you've never seen her before" (it has some of her nude photos). It ended up with my response being hidden and me in face book jail for a week for violating community standards. What a bunch of snowflakes.

4. TSF wants the Epstein thing to sink....

And Mellie just put it back on the front page news.

Kudos to Michael Wolff!

9. That's what I was thinking.

I suspect that rather than having a case with Epstein at the center of it, and the visuals of both trumps pleading the 5th about having sex on Epstein's jet..... they are going to drop this like a hot potato.
But, Wolff better watch himself. Seriously!

5. I feel sorry for Melania,

sorry she is even in 'merica, or earth.

8. I'm guessing Trump will claim executive privilege

And Roberts' court will uphold it.

11. All you need to know about this entire fked-up family is that however awful you think they are,

the whole truth about them is likely a thousand times worse.
