The Constitution Party has filed an amicus brief in support of Don Blankenship’s defamation lawsuit. Don was the 2020 Constitution Party candidate for President and previously a Republican candidate for U. S. Senate from West Virginia.
Mr. Blankenship has expended significant resources to clear his name and at the center of the argument is a longstanding interpretation of a previous Supreme Court Case, New York Times v, Sullivan.
