Ivanka, the daughter of US President Donald Trump and son-in-law Jared Kushner, who are both senior White House aides, threatened to sue a group of anti-Trump Republicans for posting ads on a billboard in Times Square, the heart of New York City, linking them to 225,000 deaths. Because of the Corona virus in the country.
And the attorney Mark Kasowitz, who represents Ivanka and Kushner, addressed this threat in a letter to Project Lincoln, describing the ads as "false, malicious and defamatory." He added that it constitutes "outrageous and shameful defamation."
"If these billboards are not removed immediately, we will sue you for that, which will undoubtedly cost you huge damages and punitive damages," Kasowitz said in his message, which Project Lincoln posted on Twitter.
But Project Lincoln responded in a statement with separate posts: "Crazy! ... billboards will remain in place." (Reuters)
