French President Emmanuel Macron has filed a lawsuit against far-right podcaster Candace Owens [View all]

French President Emmanuel Macron has filed a lawsuit against far-right podcaster Candace Owens over her repeated claims that his wife is a man.

The lawsuit, which was filed Wednesday morning in the Superior Court of the State of Delaware, calls Owens’ claims “devastating lies” and adds that the podcast host “disregarded all credible evidence disproving her claim in favor of platforming known conspiracy theorists and proven defamers.”
