Welcome back. President Trump's legal battle with legacy media outlets continues. The president refiling his defamation lawsuit against the Wall Street Journal. 
This comes after federal judge in April threw out an earlier version of the lawsuit over legal deficiencies. 
Trump is filing this lawsuit in his personal capacity. He's seeking at least $10 billion in damages over the papers reporting on his ties to Jeffrey Epstein. 
The president says the journal falsely reported on a birthday card to Epstein as bearing Trump's signature. 
Trump saying the reporting caused him to suffer overwhelming financial and reputational harm. 
The newspaper says it has full confidence in the accuracy of its reporting and will vigorously fight the lawsuit. 
The president has filed defamation and other lawsuits against other media organizations including the New York Times and the BBC.
