Donald Trump announced at his Texas rally Saturday that he is going to
“sue” within two weeks to snatch away Pulitzer Prizes from The Washington
Post and The New York Times for coverage of the Kremlin’s interference in
America’s 2016 presidential election.
“Within the next two weeks, we’re suing the Pulitzer organization to have
those prizes taken back,” Trump crowed at a rally in Robstown, where he
stumped for MAGA candidates.
He said Pulitzer Prizes should be going to Fox News’ Sean Hannity, Tucker
Carlson and Jeanine Pirro.
Trump first threatened to sue over the awards in June. But in July the
Pulitzer board rejected his repeated demands to revoke the 2018 national
reporting awards given to the two newspapers, noting that reviews found no
reason to rescind the prizes.
“No passages or headlines, contentions or assertions in any of the winning
submissions were discredited by facts that emerged subsequent to the
conferral of the prizes,” the board said in a statement. “The 2018
Pulitzer Prizes in National Reporting stand.”
The awards were given for “deeply sourced, relentlessly reported coverage
in the public interest that dramatically furthered the nation’s
understanding of Russian interference in the 2016 presidential election
and its connections to the Trump campaign, the President-elect’s
transition team and his eventual administration,” according to the
Pulitzer board.
Now Trump has given himself a deadline to sue. Trump claimed at the rally
that the stories “libel” him.
“By allowing these people that got Russia, Russia, Russia wrong, they’re
actually libeling me because they’re saying they got it right,” Trump
said.
They didn’t get “Russia, Russia, Russia wrong.”
An investigation by the U.S. intelligence community found the Kremlin was
extensively involved in social media manipulation in a bid to get Trump
elected in 2016, and to defeat Hillary Clinton.

The probe by special counsel Robert Mueller found that the Russian
government worked to help Trump win the 2016 election, and that the Trump
campaign believed it would benefit from information stolen and
disseminated by Moscow. His investigation uncovered multiple links between
Kremlin operatives and members of the Trump campaign.
A bipartisan Senate report also found several ties from Trump allies and
his campaign to Russian operatives. In just one example, the report
concluded that Trump campaign chair Paul Manafort’s “high-level access and
willingness to share information with individuals closely affiliated with
the Russian intelligence services … represented a grave
counterintelligence threat.”
The Pulitzer board did not immediately comment about Trump’s latest threat
to sue.
