French President Emmanuel Macron and his wife, Brigitte Macron, have filed a defamation lawsuit against American conservative commentator Candace Owens over claims that the French First Lady was born as a man.
The first couple of France filed a 218-page lawsuit in the U.S. state of Delaware on Wednesday against Mrs Owens and her businesses, alleging that she has financially gained from making “demonstrably false” claims about Brigitte Macron being secretly transgender.
Owens has previously stated that she would stake her “entire professional reputation on the fact that Brigitte Macron is in fact a man,” while claiming that Macron was, in fact, her brother

FTA:
"The FT noted, however, that the first couple of France may face an uphill battle, given the high legal bar set for defamation in the United States for public figures, which requires proof that there was “actual malice” on behalf of the person who made the claim. This means that they will need to prove that Owens knew that the information was false or had a reckless disregard for the truth."

For what it is worth I think Brigitte Macron is a beautiful and very chic woman. I disagree with her from A to Z but she is perfection and an inspiration to look at.

I lost ALL respect for Owens when she started spouting antisemitic rhetoric based on easily proven falsehoods. If she can't keep her damn mouth shut, perhaps a lawsuit will shut her up!

Some time in my past I have seen it reported that Mrs. Macron was a he who became a she. Something to do with a brother or sister. I think she was a boy and took on the personna of her sister.

Wouldn't they treat this like a mis-pronouning offense? Whatever.
I'm more inclined to believe the rumor that Mooch was male at birth, anyway.

Owens is toast. Not because of what she said but the venue. French turbo lib files in Delaware Hades even foreigners know where to judge shop. Owens, even though black and a woman has the ultimate scarlet letter, C 9for conservative). No self righteous self, anointed Clinton, Obambi, Diaper Joe Inferior Court Black Robed Activist could resist sticking it to her.

IMO Owen's "entire professional reputation" would easily fit into a thimble.

Owens obsessed over this issue to draw viewers to her podcast, having nothing else, and having no evidence. I doubt the Macrons would risk this type of publicity, if any of the speculations were true, as truth is a defense against liable.

The Macrons will have an uphill battle on their hands, as they already lost one defamation suit about Mr/Ms/Mrs Macron. But, I suspect all that kickback, Ukrainian cash can keep them going for a while.

I can agree that the Macrons are creepy and even that he was younger than 15 as alleged.
But where did the three kids come from in her prior marriage? Many people in France realize that their country has gone down the tube and would love to see these two creeps gone.

I am no particular fan of Candice since she went off the rails over Israel. I think she often exercises rather poor judgment. However, unless Candice lives in Delaware, I doubt that is the proper court system in which to file. Second, I believe Candice could demand a DNA test. Third, seems like I read somewhere that the original reporting/accusations for this stuff came from some European investigative journalists and Candice was repeating/reporting their findings.

Do those who assume to know that Candice has no evidence actually know that? How? If she had nothing. why would she allege this? When it comes to the creepy Macrons, nothing wojuulld surprise me.

I began following Candace when she was a red pulled Democrat. She then became a Kanye fan girl and then went over the edge with a Jew behind every bad thing imaginable. Her fallout with Shapiro was ''a tell''. She goe's on (smugly) about how right she is on everything. Me thinks not!

In Candace's defense, I don't think stories about Brigitte Macron being a tranny are new. They've been around for at least a couple of years. I'll say one thing -- based on recent video footage of the Macrons having an argument at the top of an airline runway stair, Mme. Macron has a dangerous right cross!
