The mother of the photogenic little boy known around the internet as"Success Kid" is threatening to sue a congressman who has a history of making racist and insensitive remarks for using her son's photo without permission.
An attorney for Laney Griner sent a cease and desist letter to Rep. Steve King on Monday demanding that the Iowa Republican stop using a meme featuring her son Sam in a fundraising ad on Facebook. It alleges that using the photo for fundraising without consent violates the Griners' copyright and infringes on Sam's privacy, image and personality rights.
— Laney Griner January 23, 2020 The words"FUND OUR MEMES!!!" are written on the photo in bold letters and encourages people to go to a fundraising page to"make sure the memes keep flowing and the Lefties stay triggered."King has received bipartisan condemnation for racist remarks and was removed from all of his committee assignments in January 2019, after an interview where he appeared to lament that the term"white supremacist" is considered offensive.
