@jolly said in Devin Nunes sues MSNBC:
I think it's high time to revisit libel and slander laws.
Schiff, Radler, Brennan and others appeared on Maddow's show as well as others touting the RUSSIA! story.
"We have evidence!"
Which they never produced.
Perhaps they should be "cancelled" for promoting unverified stories?

I think they should pay money.
Again, the world would be a better place, if both ends of the spectrum had to provide a little proof for baseless accusations.

Righteousness destroys. That's pretty much the purpose of that emotion. To allow otherwise nominally decent people to act atrociously, without any of the shame, regret, or conscience that normally goes along with it.
Is a single TDS sufferer looking back on their histrionics with any shame or regret whatsoever? Of course not. Righteousness erases everything. I mean, none of their friends regret it. Why should they?

Unless, of course, the objective is not adjudication but, y'know, the publicity arising therefrom.
I thought something similar, but I doubt that it'll get much traction outside the RWEC where it's not needed.
OTOH, lawfare can be a useful tactic, assuming you have the resources to pursue it. I don't doubt that MSNBC has the resources to defend. I wonder if Nunes has the resources to prosecute.
