And this is how we should handle people making false claims in the media. Give some evidence or pay until you do.

Did they ever make the MyPillow crackhead pay up for his “prove me wrong“ stunt?
Yeah, he’s just selling pillow cases now.
Update from a few weeks ago:
heard an "Antifa conference call"
lmao
I mean if he's just some regular schmo, his available cash reserved are, if not immediately, going to be underwater rather quickly. Real implementation of this fine, and immediate liens against his assets and property, are the only things that are going to get this jerk to 1) admit he doesn't have the evidence he's claimed or 2) produce the evidence. Anything but immediate action will see this drag out with to no financial benefit to the aggrieved, of which he is sorely due.
Get his ass
I could see demanding to know who invited you to the "antifa call", but also what were the details of the call.
If there was a call (doubtful) and they can get the organizing details, they can subpoena the platform and determine who else was on the call.
I remember this asshole. An antifa conf call where people spoke openly about their plans to rig the election. Ha fucking right. They can say anything with credulity because their side wants confirmation without proof. If I was completely without morals and ethics, I'd be one of those rightwing shills getting bankrolled by Russia saying the craziest shit I could come up with, too. Instead, I have a real job.
