BREAKING: I hope that she does it. Hillary Clinton is thinking about Suing Trump for $100 billion for Defamation as well as racism over White House targeted video at the Obamas. Raise your hand if you want Trump impeached immediately ✋
significant buzz, particularly in social media circles and anti-Trump groups. However, a closer examination reveals this claim appears to be largely unsubstantiated rumor rather than confirmed news.

This specific phrasing, including the $100 billion figure, defamation and racism allegations tied to a “White House targeted video at the Obamas,” originates primarily from viral posts on platforms like Facebook, X (formerly Twitter), Instagram, and Threads. Examples include shares in groups such as “Blue Wave 2026” and “The Blue Resistance,” as well as individual accounts amplifying it as “BREAKING EXCLUSIVE” or similar sensational labels. These posts often express hope or excitement about the idea (“I hope this is real!!!”) and tie it to broader calls for political action, like impeachment.
No major mainstream news outlets—such as The New York Times, CNN, BBC, ABC News, or others—have reported any confirmation that Hillary Clinton is actively considering or preparing such a lawsuit. Legal filings, court records, or statements from Clinton’s representatives do not appear to support this in recent coverage.
Context of the “Racist Video” Involving the Obamas
The reference to a “White House targeted video at the Obamas” likely stems from a real and controversial incident in early February 2026. President Donald Trump posted (and later deleted) a video on Truth Social that included a racist animated clip depicting former President Barack Obama and Michelle Obama as apes. The clip drew widespread condemnation, including from some Republicans, for its overt racism.
Trump defended the post by claiming he “didn’t see” the problematic portion before sharing it and refused to apologize.
The backlash was swift, with critics labeling it “raw, rank racism” and pointing to it as evidence of ongoing racial insensitivity.
Coverage appeared in outlets like ABC News, The New York Times, BBC, and CNN, highlighting the video’s deletion after hours online and the public outcry.
This event has fueled online speculation, including theories that it could prompt legal action from figures like Clinton (who has long clashed with Trump) or even the Obamas themselves.

Related Legal History Between Clinton and Trump
Clinton and Trump have a contentious legal past, but it runs in the opposite direction:
In 2022, Trump filed a racketeering lawsuit against Clinton, the Democratic National Committee, and others, accusing them of conspiring to spread false Russia collusion claims during the 2016 election. That case was dismissed as “frivolous,” with Trump and his attorney (Alina Habba) sanctioned nearly $1 million.
Appeals in 2025 upheld the dismissal and penalties.
No public reports indicate Clinton has filed or is planning a counter-suit of this magnitude.
A $100 billion defamation claim would be extraordinarily large—far exceeding typical awards (e.g., recent high-profile defamation cases like Giuliani’s $148 million loss)—and would face significant hurdles, including proving actual malice, especially given political speech protections.
Why This Might Be Spreading
Claims like this often gain traction in polarized online spaces as wishful thinking or misinformation. The combination of the recent Obama video controversy, ongoing Trump-Clinton animosity, and the appeal of a massive “payback” lawsuit makes it ripe for viral sharing. Similar patterns have appeared with unverified “breaking” stories in political echo chambers.
In summary, while the Obama video incident is factual and inflammatory, there is no credible evidence that Hillary Clinton is pursuing a $100 billion defamation and racism lawsuit against Trump over it or related matters. The headline reflects online sentiment and speculation more than verified developments. If any official announcement emerges, it would likely dominate major news cycles immediately. For now, treat this as unconfirmed social media rumor. ✋ (Raising hand for critical thinking, not impeachment calls!)
