(TheConservativeTimes.org) – Refusing to let liberals get away with their lies, Laura Loomer has filed a $150 million defamation lawsuit against Bill Maher and HBO.
See her full statement down below.
The lawsuit stems from Maher’s baseless and malicious claims that the staunch Trump supporter and conservative activist was involved in an affair with GOP presidential nominee President Donald Trump.
Specifically, Loomer’s lawsuit was filed in Sumter County, Florida, and accuses Maher and HBO of broadcasting false and defamatory statements about her on his show “Real Time With Bill Maher.”
The liberal comedian suggested that 31-year-old Loomer might be in an “arranged relationship” with Trump to influence the upcoming election.
To help her case, Loomer hired attorney Larry Klayman, who is a former federal prosecutor known for his legal battles against the Clinton administration.
“Ms. Loomer has been a strong advocate for President Donald Trump in her profession as a conservative activist and investigative journalist over the past decade,” Klayman said.
The lawsuit seeks $150 million in damages plus punitive damages, highlighting the severe impact of these baseless allegations on Loomer’s reputation and career.
The lawsuit argues that Maher’s comments were unfounded and intended to damage Loomer’s reputation and credibility.
It also accuses HBO of complicity in the defamation as Maher’s employer. Loomer’s legal team contends that Maher acted with reckless disregard for the truth, demonstrating actual malice in his statements.
The conservative activist firmly denied Maher’s allegations, calling them “beyond the pale and a complete and blatant lie.”
Loomer has been seen close to the Trump campaign, including attending a September 11 memorial with the former president and being backstage during a presidential debate.
