Donald Trump is attempting to sue CBS News to the tune of $10 billion on allegations that there was “deceptive doctoring” of Kamala Harris’ “60 Minutes” interview. His outcry continues after the network’s “Face the Nation” used a longer version of an answer Harris gave during her “60 Minutes” discussion.

The former president filed the lawsuit obtained by TheWrap on Thursday, after days of outcry about the news organization doctoring his political opponent’s interview. It states that the “60 Minutes” interview was a form of “news distortion” used to “tip the scales in the favor of the Democratic Party.”

“CBS’ partisan and unlawful acts of election and voter interference through malicious, deceptive, and substantial news distortion calculated to confuse, deceive, and mislead the public.”
