3/24 is the new Q date. It is truly amazing how gullible these people are.
in the end, EMAW will always win.
Maybe he was just more careful with how he worded things, but any reason they couldn’t sue Trump as well?

"The amount being asked for is, quite obviously, intended to frighten people of faint heart. It is another act of intimidation by the hate-filled left wing to wipe out and censor the exercise of free speech, as well as the ability of lawyers to defend their clients vigorously," he said. "As such, we will investigate a countersuit against them for violating these constitutional rights."
Rudy needs to file a lawsuit (or counterclaim, I guess) against Dominion and then claim litigation privilege as an absolute defense to defamation.
Claiming work product for false statements made at a press conference would certainly allow that

I only know Texas law in this realm, and I don't know what law applies in the Dominion suit, but it's a plausible defense.

I'm sure there are wrinkles in TX but can you give me some insight how his defense of "work product" could morph into a counterclaim? And are you saying he can do press conferences falsely claiming the Dominion machines intentionally manipulated Presidential votes and not be potentially liable for this obvious lie that he knew was an obvious lie?

Statements made during (or in contemplation of) litigation are immune from defamation liability (I assume this is true in most places). Rudy could argue that his statements were made in contemplation of litigation, especially if he asserts a claim against Dominion. He just needs a plaintiff with standing...
