      Trump’s motive could not be any more transparent. He filed the suit to threaten and intimidate the BBC. The BBC responded by calling his bluff.

      Now, the BBC has the right of due process, including “discovery”. And Trump must comply with the discovery order.

      Trump’s presidential immunity does not come into play in this case, because Trump filed the suit. He volunteered (by filing the suit) to be subject to the jurisdiction of this court.

      Trump claimed $10 Billion in damages.

      The *very least* the BBC lawyers should do when getting sued, would be to *verify the claimed damages*.

      Nothing about this is “politically motivated” on behalf of the BBC. This is entirely politically motivated by Trump and he’s hitting himself in his own dementias-fueled confusion.

      This is what Trump gets for not listening to experts.

      His lawyers knew this was going to happen. But they know they couldn’t tell him.

      He’s begging the judge to pause the lawsuit he filed so he can change it a little bit to protect himself from the process of the lawsuit that HE FILED. What a wimp.

      The BBC is blowing up in trumps face, you say?

      I definitely read that acronym the wrong way…

      “The BBC’s motive could not be more transparent—to wrongly exploit this litigation for its own political benefit, as well as the benefit of President Trump’s other political opponents,” the deposition read. “The moment those records reach the BBC, the injury is complete and irreversible.” His lawyers also accused the BBC of having “clearly political motivations.”

      Oops, yet another case of the Accusation is a confession. Fascists are fucking stupid and I am so grateful for that.

      “BBC blowing up in Trump’s face” is just the sort of headline I want him and MAGA to see.

      As expected. He never wants to deal with the discovery part of all of his bs taxpayer funded lawsuits

      This seems predictable and something his legal team should have warned him about.

      I know the answer will be unsatisfying, but how is it possible that we cannot charge a president with actual crimes, but he has an unlimited ability to sue other people while in office?

      First thing I thought when I heard Trump was suing Capital One for closing his 300 bank accounts. Capital One stated they closed them for investigations in money laundering. I cheered when I heard that. Discovery is going to be FANTASTIC.

      Sounds like broke lingo to me, potus. Put up or shut up, pussy ass orange bitch.

      Apparently the British legal system is not beholden to MAGA. The BBC is 103 years old, this isn’t their first rodeo

      He truly is a fucking idiot. The BBC has the means to easily fight a lawsuit like this. The fact he ignored discovery and thought they would fold because of the big number is dumb as hell. He should not be allowed to rewrite the lawsuit he started.

      Thank you most countries in the world for helping to fight the Epstein people. It just sucks that one of the governments they’ve compromised, is the entire Right wing party of the fricking USA!

      I thought fascism was bad, but apparently you can get worse, do it with Epstein people.

      …& they wonder why their tourism is down. Nobody wants to visit whatever the hell “_America_” has turned into. This shit is not normal.
