President Donald Trump announced on Monday that he was filing a $15 billion lawsuit against The New York Times, accusing the newspaper of defaming him.
President Trump accuses the newspaper and its reporters of defaming him in a book and three articles he said were "false, malicious, defamatory, and disparaging."
The statement comes after Trump threatened last week to sue the New York Times for its reporting related to a sexually suggestive note and drawing given to Epstein.
