Trump to file $15 billion defamation and libel lawsuit against New York Times

US President Donald Trump said on Monday he would file a $15-billion lawsuit for defamation and libel against The New York Times, days after the newspaper released articles on his ties to disgraced financier Jeffrey Epstein, SİA informs via Reuters.

The statement comes after Trump threatened, last week, to sue the New York Times for its reporting related to a sexually suggestive note and drawing given to Epstein.

"Today, I have the Great Honor of bringing a $15 Billion Defamation and Libel Lawsuit against The New York Times," Trump said in a post on his social media platform Truth Social.

Trump accused the paper of lying about him, his family and businesses, as well as Republican-led movements and ideologies such as the America First Movement, and Make America Great Again, or MAGA.

The suit would be filed in Florida, he added, but gave no further details.
