President Donald Trump has secured another victory in his ongoing battle against “fake news” and “the Russia collusion hoax.”
On Tuesday, a Florida appeals court unanimously decided not to dismiss Trump’s defamation lawsuit against the Pulitzer Prize Board, signaling a major blow to the defenders of the now-debunked narrative that Trump colluded with Russia during the 2016 election.
The suit challenges the legitimacy of the 2018 Pulitzer Prizes awarded to fake news, The New York Times and The Washington Post, for their coverage of the debunked Trump-Russia collusion hoax.
The roots of this narrative trace back to July 2020, when the Senate Judiciary Committee released damning documents that debunked the New York Times’s story of the Trump team’s alleged “repeated contacts with senior Russian intelligence officials.”
These declassified documents exposed the reporting as not only dishonest but also as an early attempt to fuel the baseless Russiagate narrative.
Further revelations in May 2022 confirmed that it was Hillary Clinton’s campaign that orchestrated the Trump-Russia collusion hoax, as admitted under oath by her former campaign manager Robbie Mook during the Sussman trial.
