A mom spoke out at a school board meeting about @BeniciaUSD injecting gender ideology into the curriculum.
Leftist activists were fuming and set to work tracking down her employer and destroying her life. @Compass, her employer, caved to the mob and fired her.
An anti-SLAPP (Strategic Litigation/Lawsuit Against Public Participation) law allows for a quick dismissal (and attorneys fees) for lawsuits designed to silence people. An example is filing a defamation claim when it is clear that the speaker is discussing an issue of public concern. A recent example is when Rep. Katie Hill tried to sue the journalists who published her throuple pictures under California’s privacy / revenge porn laws. The journalists files and anti-SLAPP motion, and granting the motion meant it was dismissed AND she had to pay attorneys fees.
Katie Hill sued my journalist clients for exposing the truth. We warned her lawyer Carrie Goldberg about CA Anti-SLAPP law in writing. And yet they persisted into six figures in attorney fee losses. She dodged service of the judgment, now BK. Nothing is ever her fault. Typical. https://t.co/fuxkyNz6Uy
