First Lady Melania Trump threatened to sue Hunter Biden for defamation after he claimed she met President Donald Trump through Jeffrey Epstein in an interview in early August during an interview with Channel 5’s Andrew Callaghan.
The first lady demanded $1 billion.
Mrs. Trump made the same threat against James Carville and The Daily Beast over the same claims.
Both apologized and retracted the comments.
Hunter Biden? “F*ck that.”
Mrs. Trump and Alejandro Brito, the attorney who serves as her litigation counsel, sent a letter to Hunter on August 6. From Fox News:
Brito demanded that Biden “immediately retract the false, defamatory, disparaging and inflammatory statements made about Mrs. Trump,” which were contained in the “Channel 5″ video published to YouTube in early August.”Failure to comply will leave Mrs. Trump with no choice but to pursue any and all legal rights and remedies available to her to recover the overwhelming financial and reputational harm that you have caused her to suffer,” Brito wrote.Biden had also claimed in the earlier interview that “Jeffrey Epstein introduced Melania, and that’s how Melania and the first lady and the President met.””These false, disparaging, defamatory and inflammatory statements are extremely salacious and have been widely disseminated throughout various digital mediums,” Brito wrote. “Indeed, the video has since been re-published by various media outlets, journalists, and political commentators with millions of social media followers that have disseminated the false and defamatory statements therein to tens of millions of people worldwide.”Brito added: “Consequently, you have caused Mrs. Trump to suffer overwhelming financial and reputational harm.”Brito demanded, on behalf of the first lady, that Biden “immediately issue a full and fair retraction of the video and any and all other false, defamatory, disparaging, misleading and inflammatory statements about Mrs. Trump in as conspicuous a manner as they were originally published.”He also demanded, on behalf of the first lady, that Biden “immediately issue an apology for the false, defamatory, disparaging, misleading and inflammatory statements about Mrs. Trump.”
Hunter based his comments on Trump’s biographer, Michael Wolff. But as The New York Post pointed out, you cannot trust what Wolff says about Trump.
But Hunter also dragged a 2019 New York Times article to back up his claims, which says:
But while Mr. Trump has dismissed the relationship, Mr. Epstein, since the election, has played it up, claiming to people that he was the one who introduced Mr. Trump to his third wife, Melania Trump, though neither of the Trumps has ever mentioned Mr. Epstein playing a role in their meeting. Mrs. Trump has said that her future husband simply asked for her phone number at a party at the Kit Kat Club during Fashion Week in 1998.
OK, so your other source is Epstein himself, Hunter?
Callaghan sat down with Hunter again, allowing him to respond.
“F*ck that. That’s not gonna happen.”
Hunter doesn’t stop. The dude doesn’t know when to shut up. He continued:
The fact of the matter is that, you know, I don’t think that these threats of a lawsuit are are add up to anything other than a design distraction, because it’s not about who introduced whom to who. I don’t know how that’s in any way rises to the level of defamation to begin with.But the fact of the matter is that this is about hundreds, if not over 1000 minors, children who were raped by Jeffrey Epstein. And I don’t believe in guilt by association alone, but the connections have become there that are so glaringly obvious that I think they’re trying to use other things to distract.I also think they’re bullies, and they think that a billion dollars is going to scare me, which is the fact of the matter is, is that if they’d like to go, I have to this to say to them, if they want to sit down for a deposition and clarify the nature of the relationship between Jeffrey Epstein, if the President and the First Lady want to do that, and all of the known associates around them at the time of whatever time that they met, I’m more than happy to provide them the platform to be able to do it.
Better calm down, Hunter, and shed the cocky attitude. Daddy isn’t in charge anymore, and you’ve even admitted you’re in financial trouble.
