All too often, it seems that Trump gets away with the lies that he says, but not this time.

0:04.8

A federal judge has just ruled that a defamation lawsuit brought against Trump can continue.

0:11.5

That and a defamation lawsuit brought by Dominion against pro-Trump News Network NewsMack is headed
