Candace Owens hit with $20m suit for calling pundit a strip ‘madame’
The suit comes from former congressional candidate Kimberly Klacik
www.independent.co.uk
"Conservative pundit Candace Owens is facing a $20m defamation lawsuit which claims she smeared a fellow right-wing commentator with false allegations of drug use, fraud and working as a strip club “madame”. Kimberly Klacik, a former Republican congressional candidate and regular on conservative news programmes, accused Ms Owens of sharing an insulting string of allegations in an Instagram video seen by thousands that she claims amounted to “character assassination,” part of a long-running feud between the two.
“Baseless character assassination has no place in political dialogue,” Ms Klacik’s attorney, Jacob S Frankel, told Law & Crime 'The defendant chose to use her huge social media platform to attack a respected Baltimore political figure" -- “These caustic and made-up defamatory allegations are without factual support,” the lawsuit, filed in July, reads."
Baseless character assassination has no place in political dialogue?? Did a lawyer for a former GOP congressional candidate just say that with a straight face?? Anyhoo; this seems to be more of cat-fight than anything else.... battle for clout between 2 of the "good blacks" in the conservative media sphere...at least that is what they always keep referring to political media personalities like Candace and Kimberly as being; you know..one of the "good ones".
Apparently, according to Candace, Kim Klacik use to be a stripper and she recruited other strippers to work at her husband's strip club..Candace also claimed Klacik laundered campaign money and spent it on drugs. Now its odd that Klacik ran for a congressional seat last year and none of this stuff came out...It seems the Dems sat on all of the evidence and instead forced Candace to go public with it and create in-fighting after the election.....quite a brilliant yet diabolical plan.
