Trump sued the Wall Street Journal over its reporting on a letter he labelled as "FAKE" and claimed its story is "false, malicious, and defamatory."

The lawsuit accuses the newspaper and its parent company of libel after it published an article about a lewd letter bearing Trump’s name among the birthday notes collected as a gift for Jeffrey Epstein’s 50th birthday.

President Donald Trump has filed a lawsuit against The Wall Street Journal and media mogul Rupert Murdoch, a day after the newspaper published a story reporting on his ties to wealthy financier Jeffrey Epstein.
