DOJ dismissing suit against author of Melania Trump tell-all book
Justice Department officials requested the dismissal of its lawsuit against Stephanie Winston Wolkoff for her memoir called “Melania and Me: The Rise and Fall of my Friendship with the First Lady,” which had accused the author of violating a White House nondisclosure agreement.
Attorneys for the Justice Department did not give a reason for seeking the dismissal. It is one of the first lawsuits not being pursued by the Biden DOJ following the departure of the Trump administration.
...A DOJ spokesperson responded to the dismissal in a comment to Politico, saying, “the Department evaluated the case and concluded that dismissal without prejudice was in the best interests of the United States based on the facts and the law.”

Rudy Giuliani Sued by Dominion Voting Systems Over False Election Claims
Source: NY Times
Dominion Voting Systems filed a defamation lawsuit on Monday against Rudolph W. Giuliani, the lawyer for Donald J. Trump and former mayor of New York City who played a key role in the former president’s monthslong effort to subvert the 2020 election.
The 107-page lawsuit, filed in the Federal District Court in Washington, accuses Mr. Giuliani of carrying out “a viral disinformation campaign about Dominion” made up of “demonstrably false” allegations, in part to enrich himself through legal fees and his podcast.
The suit seeks damages of more than $1.3 billion and is based on more than 50 statements Mr. Giuliani made at legislative hearings, on Twitter, on his podcast and in the conservative news media, where he spun a fictitious narrative of a plot by one of the biggest voting machine manufacturers in the country to flip votes to President Biden.
Mr. Giuliani, one of Mr. Trump’s closest advisers and confidants, has faced continuing fallout for his highly visible efforts to reverse the election outcome. This month, the chairman of the New York State Senate’s judiciary committee formally requested that the state court system strip Mr. Giuliani of his law license.
