Loser Georgia Republican sues Fox News and primary opponent for racketeering, claiming they conspired to deny him airtime

Failed third-place Georgia 2nd district Republican primary candidate Wayne Johnson on Thursday filed a racketeering lawsuit against leading hopeful Jeremy Hunt, Hunt’s campaign, Fox News, and Fox & Friends host Brian Kilmeade, alleging they violated “the integrity of Georgia’s elections, acting in clear defiance of Federal election laws and campaign finance laws” when Hunt appeared 15 times as opposed to Johnson’s single hit on on the right wing propaganda network in the lead-up to the May 24th primary, WRBL reports. The suit comes just days before the Tuesday runoff in which Hunt faces 2nd place candidate Chris West (who hasn’t appeared on Fox News at all in 2022).

“This action seeks to recover damages from Defendants for racketeering activities engaged in by Defendant Hunt, Defendant Fox News, and Defendant Kilmeade, defrauding the rule of law in Georgia, undermining the integrity of Georgia’s elections, acting in clear defiance of Federal election laws and campaign finance laws, and bypassing and ‘hoodwinking’ the voters in the Second Congressional District of Georgia, all to enrich Defendant Hunt,” reads Johnson’s complaint filed in the Muscogee County, Georgia Superior Court. Johnson also alleges that Hunt lied to voters about his qualifications – like “Holy shit! A politician told some untruths to voters to get elected!” – as if subjective interpretations of campaign statements and Fox News propagating them are supposed to constitute “the basis of mail fraud and wire fraud under the law.”

Maybe the best part of this is Hunt’s response, in which he blasts Johnson – and Chris West, the guy Hunt is actually still running against, for not also blasting Johnson. “This lawsuit will be dismissed as quickly as Wayne Johnson was dismissed by voters of the 2nd District. It’s telling that Chris West refuses to denounce dirty tricks like these often played by the radical left against true conservative candidates,” said a statement from Hunt’s campaign. West is not party to the suit.
