France's President Emmanuel Macron and his wife Brigitte Macron have filed a defamation lawsuit against conservative blogger and conspiracy theorist Candace Owens. The primary reason for the lawsuit is Owens' dissemination of baseless and absurd claims regarding the Macrons' personal lives, which, according to our sources, have been outlined in a 218-page lawsuit filed in Delaware state court, USA.
Owens' Claims and Their Implications
Candace Owens, who has millions of followers on social media, released an eight-part podcast on her YouTube channel (with 4.5 million subscribers) titled "Becoming Brigitte," one episode of which asks, "Is France's First Lady a man?" This conspiracy theory, regarding France's First Lady Jean-Michel Trone, baselessly claims that "Brigitte Macron changed her gender."
Legal Response from the Macron Family
President Macron and his wife repeatedly asked Owens to stop spreading these claims, but after her refusal, they decided to take legal action. Macron’s lawyers emphasized that in this case, "there is no other way but to go to court," as the defamation is clearly evident.
New Accusations Against Owens
In the lawsuit against Owens, filed by the Macron family, two additional important accusations were made: firstly, Owens claimed that Emmanuel and Brigitte Macron are relatives, and secondly, she stated that Macron was chosen as France's president as part of a CIA-run mind control program.
Defamation and Legal Defense
"If there was ever a clear case of defamation, it is this one," said attorney Tom Clare, representing the Macron family. In this case, defending the Macrons is crucial, as restoring trust in their personal lives and their roles as national leaders requires such steps.
Additional Details
Owens' accusations may not only affect the personal lives of the Macrons but also influence the public's perception of state affairs and politics. This lawsuit has attracted significant attention and sparked public discussions, leading to new legal disputes and theories.
