Dominion Voting Systems has filed a defamation lawsuit against Rudy Giuliani for $1.3 billion, about what they sued Sidney Powell for. As described in the New York Times,
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 don’t think this is the only consequence coming from Rudy’s seditious behavior, but it’s nice to see a big civil lawsuit. Those lead to discovery, cross-examination, and lots of other fun stuff in court, and this one seems unlikely to merit any kind of quick dismissal.
