It was a reception fit for a king. When Donald J. Trump, the 45th President of the United States took the stage at the Ford Wyoming Center in Casper for his Save America rally, he couldn’t have asked for a better response from the crowd.

alec baldwin him accusing him of falsely claiming the marine sister, royce mccollum, was a january 6th rider, which he says is absolutely not true. the lawsuit stems from a post that baldwin shared on instagram earlier this month. that is after he gave $5,000 to the widow of riley to help with their newborn daughter, but after baldwin discovered that mccallum s sister was pictured at the washington monument on january the 6th, baldwin rode to her, when i sent the money for your late brother out of real respect for his service to this country, i did not know you were a january 6th rider. royce mccollum then responded, protesting is perfectly legal in the country and i have already had my sit down with the fbi, thanks, have a nice day. baldwin then went on to repost the photo and call royce an insurrectionist, to his 2.4 million instagram followers, which prompted a wave of hateful comments.
posted a comment about the irony of sincerely wanting to honor your brother and the fact that you re an insurrectionist. the family is suing him for $25 million for defamation. we reached out to baldwin s attorney. royce mccollum joins me now with her attorney. good to have you with us. welcome back to the program, royce. this is odd in many ways. so let me put up the direct message that you shared with us, that you shared with alec baldwin. so you posted this picture of yourself at the protest. he says when i sent you this money for your late brother, it was out of respect for his service to our country. i didn t know you were a january 6th rioter. you said it s legal to protest. he said i don t think so. your brother fought for this country. your activities destroyed government property and he goes on. what was your reaction to this?
we reached out to baldwin for comment. shockingly, aren t surprised we have not heard back. here with moore s royce mccollum and her attorney is wi. thank you both. you were there january 6th. you went to the rally, and you did not go into the capital, correct? correct. i went to protest january 6th, i was at the capital, but i never went inside. i sat with a police officer most of the night and never had an issue. came home and had an old coworker reported me to the fbi, so they came about a week later and had a sit down with me. why was not guilty of anything, they never followed up, there was no charges, i was just there protesting. sean: okay, so he went to a rally. that is basically it. is this, dennis, from a legal perspective, is this liable, is this slander? she is not a public figure.
