Yeah, and this sucks to say, but this is a case of different circles. When you’re that rich, you tell people hey, why is this guy…, and then your legal team sends a cease and desist letter.
It isn’t suing him, it’s telling(telling) him to stop it please, legally.
She’s so rich that it’s very scary, but it’s basically like a neighbor knocking on your door, with the very important caveat that if her steel toed stuffed animal boot decides to kick your door in, you have no legal recourse, since you can’t mount a proportionally paid legal defense.
In more free countries that are more supportive of every citizen, this wouldn’t be a big deal. In the United States, since money has been legally transmogrified to free speech, it’s more of an issue.
Caveat: if you ain’t rich, then you ain’t people. (literary callback to a phrase that Biden said during his last campaign)
Oh, and “speech” = $$$ btw (Citizens United).
Translation: facts be damned, rich people gonna do whatever they want, and the laws will even codify that, despite how that means the literal and precise opposite of what America was first founded upon.

Someone wrote about this recently but i can’t find it. May have been a NYT article.
“When only the ultra wealthy can afford to speak freely
what does free speech mean?”
I wpuld assume that goes back to greece or earlier. Bummer how we haven’t found an interim solution.
It means that only “people” get to speak freely.
