Is Whoopi a Liability? TPUSA Just Threatened “The View” With a Very Serious “Cease and Desist” Notice

The left has been using one very nasty, but successful tool against the right… They’ve been lying through their teeth and creating these intense “smear campaigns.” We saw it with Kavanaugh, and the Covington Boys, and They do it to President Trump all the time. But they also do it on a smaller scale as well. They go after Christians a lot and conservative groups, usually accusing them of racism, or some other “dastardly word of the day,” and beat it into the ground so much, that the right gets scared and cowers. They issue stupid, blubbering sappy statements and explanations and apologies that only fuel the left more. That’s what usually happens… But not this time. This time, the right is actually fighting back HARD, and I have a feeling Whoopi Goldberg is wishing she had never started this particular fight.

It all started when the cat ladies on “The View” once again got the story all wrong… They assumed the people dressed up as “Nazis” outside of the TPUSA event were actual conservatives, not the left-wing protesters who had left moments earlier, just before the “Nazis” suddenly showed up.

🙄

This is a typical Lincoln Project move, right? Anyway, the cat ladies, made some very salacious and defamatory remarks, and the legal team over at TPUSA wasn’t having it, and things have gotten very serious.

Here’s what happened:

Yesterday, @TheView & Whoopi Goldberg smeared and lied about TPUSA regarding an incident where supposed “nazis” showed up outside of the Student Action Summit.

While they were forced by their legal department to correct two of these misrepresentations live on air, Whoopi continued to insist that TPUSA somehow welcomed “nazis” into our event “metaphorically.”

After a group of Antifa and left wing protesters showed up, predictably, to protest our event, they eventually dispersed, then minutes later these “nazis” appeared. Who are these people? We have no idea, and apparently ABC and other news media aren’t curious enough to find out.

TPUSA students confronted and argued with these individuals. Our security attempted to remove the “nazis” but were unable to intervene because they were standing on the public sidewalk. TPUSA students ultimately left the scene, at which point these individuals dispersed.

Honestly, at this point, you have to wonder if Whoopi Goldberg is a liability for The View. She just came off of that suspension for insulting Jewish folks regarding the Holocaust.

Here is the statement that TPUSA issued to all the press:

And now, TPUSA has issued a cease and desist letter to “The View.” The New York Post reported that Turning Point USA issued a scathing cease-and-desist letter to ABC News on Tuesday, calling for the Disney-owned company to “retract the defamatory statements” made earlier this week on “The View” or face legal action.

“The false statements of fact intentionally made during The View’s July 25th segment were unquestionably harmful to TPUSA’s reputation and brought the organization and its student affiliates into disrepute with the public, potential donors, and current and future business partners, posing a significant financial loss to the organization,” the letter said.

Fox News Digital has obtained the letter, addressed to ABC News New York bureau chief Joshua Hoyos and ABC assistant chief counsel Ian Rosenberg, which accuses “The View” of making “false, derogatory, and defamatory statements” about its recent Student Action Summit.

Here’s what the letter said:

“The View hosts intentionally and falsely associated TPUSA with neo-Nazi protestors outside the event placing TPUSA in denigrating and false light and negatively impacting its public perception. Such action will not be tolerated,” the letter said.

“Specifically, The View hosts insidiously and cavalierly stated that TPUSA ‘let [neo-Nazis] in’ to its SAS event, metaphorically ‘embrase[d] them’ [sic] and that neo-Nazis were ‘in the mix of people.’ The assertion that TPUSA is complicit or affiliated in any way with the neo-Nazi protesters outside the event is outlandish, false, defamatory, and disgraceful,” the letter continued. “Even after Ms. Haines reluctantly read the TPUSA statement that it condemns the group of neo-Nazis and that the group had nothing to do with TPUSA, its event, or its student attendees, Ms. Goldberg continues the false tirade against TPUSA, asserting that somehow the organization and its attendees were ‘complicit’ and/or associated with the outside protest.”

Peterson then added, “To be abundantly clear, TPUSA aggressively and completely condemns the ideologies of neo-Nazism and has zero connection to the protestors outside the event. Since these individuals were located on public property, TPUSA security attempted to, but was not permitted to remove them.”

The letter also explained that TPUSA is “a tax-exempt public charity under Internal Revenue Code Section 501(c)(3)” that is not affiliated with the GOP.

“In cases where the communication is of such a nature that the court can presume as a matter of law that the communication will tend to degrade or disgrace the party defamed, special damages are presumed,” the letter said. “Therefore, TPUSA demands that ABC immediately cease and desist from further unlawfully defaming TPUSA, retract the defamatory statements identified above, and issue a public statement apologizing for and correcting the above defamatory and false statements.”

The letter gave ABC News a deadline of July 27 for the retraction and apology.

The letter also went on to say that if ABC does not comply, TPUSA is ready to take all legal action they have at their disposal.

I love this. I love to see people actually getting in there and really fighting back hard against the left’s lies. This is how we win, and how we show these liars that their little “smear games” are not going to work anymore.

Hit them right in their pocketbook. It’s literally the only thing they care about.
