Well, being batshit crazy and evil in rightwing world is very $$$$$$$$.



"In a suit filed on Wednesday in Delaware against Owens and her businesses, the Macrons say Owens has engaged in ongoing defamatory attacks against them in order to elevate her media platform, gain more audience and make money.

Owens said in early 2024 that she would “stake [her] entire professional reputation on the fact that Brigitte Macron is in fact a man”. Since then, she has doubled down on these claims and added more, including in an eight-part podcast series called Becoming Brigitte, the lawsuit alleges."



French president and wife sue rightwing US commentator Candace Owens for defamation

Owens has claimed that France’s first lady, Brigitte Macron, is a man, and that French president is controlled by CIA

"The Macrons sought retractions from Owens, the suit says, for the “demonstrably false” claims she has made about them but she instead “mocked them and used them as additional fodder for her frenzied fan base”.

“These outlandish, defamatory, and far-fetched fictions included that Mrs Macron was born a man, stole another person’s identity, and transitioned to become Brigitte; Mrs Macron and President Macron are blood relatives committing incest; President Macron was chosen to be the President of France as part of the CIA-operated MKUltra program or a similar mind-control program; and Mrs Macron and President Macron are committing forgery, fraud, and abuses of power to conceal these secrets."
 
Pretty much standard behaviour for people trying to make money out of the maga cult. Invent ridiculous stories about some high profile person or event they consider 'liberal' and splash the stories all over their personal media. If they can make the stories about sex or gender they make more money as the cult really love that sort of stuff. Then cry all over the place about free speech etc when they are finally held accountable for the deliberate lies they posted to enrich themselves off the maga gullible. These lying arseholes are truly the lowest of the low. The only positive is that they are grifting off the maga cult rather than innocent people.
 
Klandace owens has always been one of the most vindictive bitches ive ever seen.
 

Good god that is hilarious.

The falsehoods have taken a toll on the Macrons, who are now subjected to “a campaign of global humiliation, turning their lives into fodder for profit-driven lies” and “relentless bullying on a worldwide scale”

Lifestyles of the rich and famous. Couldn't happen to a nicer guy.
 
Candace Owens is nothing more than a flagrant and unimaginative copycat.

She's taken the GOPers' canard that Michelle Obama is a man and substituted Macron for Obama.

Ms. Owens can always use the Tucker Carlson defense.

You Literally Can't Believe The Facts Tucker Carlson Tells You. So Say Fox's Lawyers

Fox News viewers don't expect facts from Tucker Carlson, according to network lawyers who defended their star in a slander lawsuit filed by a woman who said she had an affair with President Trump.
www.npr.org

Of course, for this bullshit defense to work you need your case decided by a Trump appointed judge.
 
Right wingers lying?
 
Not sure if they can win but I hope they do.
 
This is how outrageous you have to be to get attention in their world.
 
The Macrons would have been much better off ignoring Owens or mocking her.
