“Russia Hoax”: Trump Says NYT, Washington Post Will Have To Return Pulitzers

The Florida state appellate court on Wednesday rejected the Pulitzer Prize Board’s attempt to pause the ‘Russiagate’ lawsuit until the MAGA leader’s current term in office concludes.

US President Donald Trump on Wednesday declared victory against the “Russia Hoax” after a Florida court sided with him in a defamation lawsuit against the Pulitzer Prize Board relating to awards given to The New York Times and the Washington Post for their coverage of Russian interference in the 2016 Presidential election.

This came as a Florida state appellate court rejected the Pulitzer Prize Board’s attempt to pause the ‘Russia-gate’ lawsuit until the Republican leader’s current term in office concludes. The ruling came as the board failed to show any “constitutional conflicts” requiring a delay, according to Law & Crime.

What Trump Said

Hailing the ruling, Trump took to his Truth Social platform and said it was a “major win” in his effort to challenge “illegal and defamatory”  Pulitzer Prizes given to leading US publications for their “malicious stories on the Russia, Russia, Russia Hoax.”
