Politicized media stunt. Truth is an absolute defense to this lawsuit and what the guy said was clearly 100% true. She's hoping to stretch her 15 minutes and force a blood money settlement.
14:59, tick tock tick tock....
it is about time people start suing this lawless administration. it should be done far more.
Yawn.. first, you CAN'T SUE an administration.. you have to sue individuals that head up specific agencies in the Federal; Govt, and you CAN'T SUE the POTUS. Secondly, she was the one that let the cat out of the bag and it appears that social climbing and now expected compensation tops the requirements list. She has nothing on the NSA.
Sorry, ma'am. It's okay if it is politics. Besides, it wasmostly the right wing that was saying all of the bad stuff about you.
-just saying

So much for conservatives wanting tort reform. By the way, you sue individuals, not the government as a whole, jackwagon.
"@Sniffit
The first time I saw a list like that, Nevada was in the top 10 of states taking more in, mostly because of the military sites."
Hmmm, maybe it flipped due to defense spending cuts. I think NM has a lot of installations too and they also have a lot of Native American reserves that receive aid as well.
I think whew should sue Fox News for using her affair in a worthless attempt to embarrass the president.

They have reportedly shut down the facitly at Broom Lake, better known as Area 51, and moved those operations elsewhere.
Tapper's prose-style is equivalent to gibberish; word-salad that doesn't gel into meaning. I got a headache.
So, who's funding this? Heritage? Glenn Beck? Pajamas Media?
So, the woman who had an affair with, then stalked to the point of destroying a -how many star- general's career and marriage is now suing the current administration because she had an affair, stalked, and destroyed the same said general? Wow, what happened to personal responsibility? Please, can I be on the jury?
Jill and Scott Kelley are both looking for financial gain with there ridiculous and frivolous lawsuit .
Unfortunately , they will probably be paid off in a settlement . I hope not , why should some elitist prom queen socialite and her scamming doctor husband receive a dime from the American Tax payer .
Nov 14, 2012 – All told, Jill or Scott Kelley have been the subject of at least nine lawsuits since they moved to Florida.
Jill and Scott Kelley hosted lavish parties that concealed multimillion-dollar financial troubles.
Let her go for it.
Didn't she like blow the whistle on herself? This would be akin to someone rear-ending a car stopped at a red light, and then suing the other driver for not getting out of your way.
