Attorneys for Hunter Biden on Wednesday filed suit against a former Trump White House aide over his alleged role in publishing emails and embarrassing images online.
The lawsuit describes in detail how Ziegler and 10 additional unnamed defendants allegedly obtained data belonging to Hunter Biden and disseminated "tens of thousands of emails, thousands of photos, and dozens of videos and recordings" on the internet.
"While Defendant Ziegler is entitled to his extremist and counterfactual opinions, he has no right to engage in illegal activities to advance his right-wing agenda," wrote attorneys for Hunter Biden. "Yet that is precisely what Defendant Ziegler and his so-called 'nonprofit research group' ... have done."
Ziegler's bold investigative efforts and controversial online commentary about the Bidens -- whom he has referred to as "a pack of feral dogs" -- have made him a star in conservative news outlets. He "regularly bragabout their illegal activities in interviews with members of the media, on social media, and on right-wing podcasts," according to the suit.
Ziegler's online antics have opened real-world opportunities for him to pursue allegations of corruption against the Bidens. He has claimed that he regularly consults with Republican congressional investigators as part of their investigation into the president. Also, an Arkansas attorney who represents the mother of one of Hunter Biden's children enlisted Ziegler as an expert witness in their protracted paternity dispute. That suit was settled earlier this year.
