On November 9, CRTV host Steve Deace, a personal friend of Judge Roy Moore, posted on social media that Judge Moore’s wife informed him that the former Alabama Supreme Court justice used the word “defamation” in their official response to a Washington Post hit piece, a leftist organization who endorsed Moore’s Democrat political opponent, purposefully — that Moore was intending to sue the DC-based newspaper.

Judge Moore's wife, Kayla, informed me today they used the word "defamation" in their statement for a reason — they intend to pursue legal action against the Washington Post.

On Sunday evening, the Associated Press (AP) reported that a lawsuit against the Washington Post, an anti-Conservative publication, would be forthcoming:

GOP Senate nominee Roy Moore of Alabama is calling a newspaper report carrying allegations he had sexual contact with a 14-year-old girl four decades ago “fake news” and says a suit will be filed in response.

The former judge condemned the Washington Post story during a campaign speech in Huntsville, Alabama. Earlier, another fellow Republican, Sen. Pat Toomey of Pennsylvania, urged Moore to drop out of the race, saying Moore’s explanations had been inadequate

In a Huntsville gym, Moore assured supporters that the Post story was “a desperate attempt to stop my political campaign” and that the allegations that he was “involved with a minor child are completely unfalse and untrue and for which they will be sued.”

The Washington Post hatchet job, conveniently produced a month before the Alabama Senate election on December 12, wants us to believe that Christian constitutionalist Judge Roy Moore, 70, a former member of the Alabama Supreme Court who stood up to vicious leftist attacks for his fight for real marriage and the Ten Commandments, sexually assaulted a 14-year-old girl when he was 32, in 1979, and that somehow — after 40 years in public service — (judges are elected in Alabama where Moore served on the Alabama Supreme Court) this “news” never before surfaced.

Several leading entrenched GOP establishment figures rushed to the microphones on Thursday to call for Ten Commandments Judge Roy Moore to step down from his Alabama U.S. Senate campaign after the left-wing fake news Washington Post — which endorsed Moore’s Democrat Primary — concocted a last-minute hit piece intended to take out the principled Christian constitutional conservative.

“These allegations are completely false and are a desperate political attack by the National Democrat Party and the Washington Post on this campaign,” Moore said in a statement obtained by Breitbart News.

Separately, Roy Moore’s campaign said in a statement, “This garbage is the very definition of fake news and intentional defamation.”

Surrender Caucus Leader [score]Mitch McConnell  [/score](who unprecedentedly spent $30 million to defeat Moore in the Republican primary — Moore was running against McConnell’s hand-picked puppy dog, Luther Strange) and his merry band of establishment RINO stooges, pounced on the news, immediately calling for Moore to exit the race so that a Democrat can be elected.

Of course, there is no way to disprove something someone has been accused of 38 years ago, something the GOP establishment is relishing in. Shamefully, pro-Obamacare, pro-amnesty RINO John McCain, whose voting record is 67% liberal, called for Moore to step aside for the Democrat, even if the allegations are untrue. Fellow establishment squishes like Mitt Romney, who is reportedly going full-on carpetbagger with a run for the Utah Senate seat being vacated by the retiring [score]Orin Hatch,[/score] also piled on.

BREAKING: Sen. McCain: "The allegations against Roy Moore are deeply disturbing and disqualifying. He should immediately step aside and allow the people of Alabama to elect a candidate they can be proud of."

Innocent until proven guilty is for criminal convictions, not elections. I believe Leigh Corfman. Her account is too serious to ignore. Moore is unfit for office and should step aside.

Establishment RINO John McCain’s statement and many others in the establishment of both political parties extremely quick rush to judgment led many to believe that the Washington Post hatchet job was orchestrated to end Judge Roy Moore’s political career.
