Rudy Giuliani Sued by Dominion Voting Systems Over False Election Claims
Dominion Voting Systems filed a defamation lawsuit on Monday against Rudolph W. Giuliani, the lawyer for Donald J. Trump and former mayor of New York City who played a key role in the former president’s monthslong effort to subvert the 2020 election.
The 107-page lawsuit, filed in the Federal District Court in Washington, accuses Mr. Giuliani of carrying out “a viral disinformation campaign about Dominion” made up of “demonstrably false” allegations, in part to enrich himself through legal fees and his podcast.
The suit seeks damages of more than $1.3 billion and is based on more than 50 statements Mr. Giuliani made at legislative hearings, on Twitter, on his podcast and in the conservative news media, where he spun a fictitious narrative of a plot by one of the biggest voting machine manufacturers in the country to flip votes to President Biden.
=========
I think they have a very solid case. Giuliani made lots of claims, such the company was founded in Venezuela to fix elections for Hugo Chávez, and he can't backup those claims with evidence. Meanwhile, the public and customers lost confidence in Dominion hardware and software resulting in loss of good will and monetary damages.
Everyone Trump touches is ultimately hurt.
