Trump Chief Of Staff Mark Meadows’ Publisher Sues Him For Making False Claims About the 2020 Election In His Book

Mark Meadows is being sued by the publisher of his book, who has accused the former White House chief of staff of violating an agreement with All Seasons Press by making false statements regarding Donald Trump’s claims about the 2020 election.

The company filed the lawsuit after ABC News reported that Meadows received immunity to testify before a grand jury in the investigation into Trump’s false election fraud claims.

“Meadows, the former White House Chief of Staff under Donald J. Trump, promised and represented that ‘all statements contained in the work are true and based on reasonable research for accuracy,’ and that he ‘has not made any misrepresentations to the Publisher about the work,'” the publishing company wrote in the suit.

“Meadows breached those warranties causing ASP to suffer significant monetary and reputational damage when the media widely reported… that he wanted President Trump against claiming that election fraud corrupted the electoral votes cast in the 2020 Presidential Election and that neither he nor former President Trump actually believed such claims.”

The company has alleged that Meadows explicitly lied in his book, The Chief’s Chief, of which the first sentence of one chapter is, “I knew he didn’t lose.”

“Meadows’ reported statements to the Special Prosecutor and/or his staff and his reported grand jury testimony squarely contradict the statements in his book, one central theme which is that President Trump was the true winner of the 2020 Presidential Election and that the election was ‘stolen’ and ‘rigged’ with the help from ‘allies in the liberal media,’ who ignored’ actual evidence of fraud,'” the company continued in the filing.

All Seasons Press is seeking the $350,000 it paid Meadows as an advance for the book, $600,000 in out-of-pocket damages and at least $1 million each for reputational damage.

Meadow’s former top aide, Cassidy Hutchinson, wrote in her new book that he frequently burned papers in his White House office.

The ex-Meadows aide previously testified to the House committee that she had seen her boss burning documents in his office upwards of a dozen times, and wrote in her memoir that she “would sometimes find [Meadows] leaning over the fire, feeding papers into it, watching to make sure they burned.”
