Trump Sues New York Times for $15 Billion!

Former President Donald Trump has launched a $15 billion defamation lawsuit against The New York Times, claiming the paper knowingly spread false and damaging stories about him. This case is one of the largest defamation claims ever filed against a major U.S. news outlet, and it’s sparking huge debate about media, politics, and free speech.

In this video, we break down what Trump is accusing The Times of doing, how defamation law works for public figures, and why legal experts say this case will be a massive uphill battle. Trump’s legal team argues the newspaper acted with “actual malice,” a high legal bar that requires proof the journalists either knew their reporting was false or ignored the truth. Meanwhile, The New York Times insists it stands by its journalism and will fight the lawsuit in court.

Beyond the courtroom, this case is also about the bigger political picture. Trump has long framed himself as battling what he calls “fake news media,” and this lawsuit gives him another high-profile opportunity to do just that. Whether or not he wins legally, the political narrative could be just as important.
