they write purposely negative and horrible and false articles, we can
sue them and win lots of money. We’re gonna open up those libel laws. So

they’re not protected, because I’m not like other people, but I’m not
taking money, I’m not taking their money. We’re gonna open up those
libel laws, folks, and we’re gonna have people sue you like you never
got sued before.”
