"I'll keep fighting for the truth, for my family and for every person who could end up harmed by this technology in the future. It's my hope we can get justice and fix this for everyone. If there's ever been an issue we need unity on, this is it. AI can work for us or against us. It can be a catalyst to our greatest heights or our lowest of lows. Our future destination as a species will be defined by what lines we draw now. The choices we make will echo across generations." -Robby Starbuck

In the last several years, Starbuck has taken to exposing the woke practices of many of this country's huge companies. And as he does, most have agreed to abandon or at least adjust their policies, to be less DEI or LGBT, and more mainstream American family-oriented in values and procedure.

Maybe that's why Google's AI chatbots went after him, making up derogatory stories to tear down his character and reputation.

To hear all the details and facts concerning this shocking act of defamation by Google's AI "Gemma," Click Here to watch Robby's report.

The chilling fact is it could happen to any one of us.

Starbuck has taken Google to court, and while the company tried its best to have the lawsuit thrown out, the judge refused every one of their arguments, so this case WILL move forward.

Robby Starbuck posted the details of that win on his X account, which is reprinted with permission below:

Massive update-July 2026: Today, we won a MAJOR victory in court against @Google and a major victory for humanity. Before I explain what happened, I want to give all the glory to God for His perfect timing and wisdom. It's not our timing, but it's always perfect. Jesus has been my Rock.

I sued Google last year for horrific defamation where their AI chatbots accused me of evil crimes ranging from serial rape to shooting a man. It was entirely invented by their AI with ZERO basis in fact. It told lies about me for YEARS. It invented fake court records, fake victims and fake links to major media. It was and is a nightmare.

Instead of taking accountability and making it right, 8 months ago, Google asked the court to throw out my defamation case. 4 months ago we had the hearing for it. And today, the judge rejected EVERY SINGLE ONE of their arguments and DENIED their motion IN FULL. A historic decision. Google got nothing they wanted. We get to move forward.

Their lies continued LONG after my attorneys demanded that they stop the defamation. We're still piecing together how damaging it was. In the time since we filed, many more pieces have come together. More 3rd party witnesses have come forward to explain how they received lies about me. Total strangers who seem incensed to learn they were lied to. More lies have become clear. Yet huge questions remain for us about who knew what, and how deep this went at Google. (Screengrab image: via Robby Starbuck Show)

Now we get discovery. Was it directed to lie about me due to political bias, as their AI alleged? Was it a rogue programmer? A negligently released product? An executive demanding this? Poisoned training? A political bias operation? We don't know the answers to those questions yet but in discovery we get to find those answers and depose the people relevant to our case.

Sunlight is the best disinfectant, and it's about to get bright in here. Discovery means we get to find out what Google knew, who knew it and why they allowed their AI products to continue spreading these horrific lies.

This case is bigger than me and it's bigger than my political beliefs. No person should EVER have their life destroyed with heinous lies by an AI company and then be told there's no accountability, even after begging for the lies to stop for years. It should NEVER happen in the first place.

Today it's defamation but in the future AI will advance to an intelligence beyond the total intelligence of humankind. It will be able to take on robotic bodies and self-replicate. Some will be war machines capable of carnage that we can't fathom. It can already make video and audio indistinguishable from reality. If we don't draw a line in the sand that AI cannot harm humans in this manner, then we're headed for a world of trouble. (Screengrab image: via Robby Starbuck Show)

I'll keep fighting for the truth, for my family and for every person who could end up harmed by this technology in the future. It's my hope we can get justice and fix this for everyone. If there's ever been an issue we need unity on, this is it. AI can work for us or against us. It can be a catalyst to our greatest heights or our lowest of lows. Our future destination as a species will be defined by what lines we draw now. The choices we make will echo across generations.

Google is one of the most powerful companies on earth. It may even be THE most powerful. But today, on July 24th 2026, they failed to shut the courthouse doors on us. In short, David landed a shot on Goliath today. Why? Not because David is so great but because God is and the human pursuit of justice IS righteous.

Today is a historic victory and now we'll prepare to win the rest of this fight, not just for me, but for all of us. Subscribe for free to Breaking Christian News here
