Trump legal team claims the BBC is ‘abusing the deposition process’ as broadcaster fights a $10 billion lawsuit
Donald Trump has accused the BBC of trying to harass his family after the broadcaster sought to subpoena members of his family to challenge his $10 billion defamation lawsuit.
The president is suing the BBC for defamation over a Panorama episode that spliced together two parts of a speech he gave ahead of the Capitol riots in 2021.
Lawyers have requested a U.S. court order Trump’s son Donald Trump Jr, his daughter Ivanka Trump and her husband Jared Kushner to give documents and testimony in relation to the case.
BBC gonna kick some trumps ass big time. Wait and see…
You mean the same way you and your lackies harassed Hunter Biden all these years?
How young are trump’s “children” again? Just thinking that it’s kinda suspicious that they call them children when talking about trump’s full grown adult sons and daughter while when talking about the genocide in Gaza they never refer to literal babies or pre-teens and other obvious children as children
It’s just like how the media were calling the victims of Epstein “young women”. No, the victims were children.
Subpoenas in response to litigation YOU started aren’t harassment.
Also, even if you ignore this is Trump and just focus on him being a political figure, here’s my response https://youtu.be/S0Vyr1TylTE
That is some classic DARVO shit right there.
I don’t think it’s possible to harass via subpoena, “judge they are harassing me via your order” isn’t exactly the best thing you want to be saying to a judge.
I am enjoying that he’s gone up against one of the oldest, biggest news outlets, an organisation that has some exceptionally good lawyers, and knows EXACTLY what the boundaries are. And he’s only now apparently beginning to realise that they won’t just fold in fear like everyone else.
The BBC has been sued on far more solid ground by far worse cunts than that sack of shit.
And since he isn’t President of their country, they don’t have to pay up immediately just to appease him.
I think you mean “far less solid ground” - i.e. they’re on very solid ground here.
No, I meant solid ground. As in, Trump’s ground is currently made entirely from loose gravel.
Aah, I thought you meant the BBC’s solid ground, not the plaintiff. Got it.
Trump: Kicks the BBC
BBC: Fights Back
Trump: STOP STOP ITS NOT FAIR YOU’RE NOT ALLOWED TO FIGHT BACK.
Pretty much the MO of any rapist or bully. Or both.
Oh I know, I grew up with this exact personality.
Allow the abuse, defending yourself means your the monster.
As in you were the victim, or the perpetrator? Sorry if the former.
as in I was on the receiving end.
The sad things is that has worked for it* in the past, so of course it* will keep on using that strategy.
* I use the pronoun it because I believe in using the correct pronouns for everyone and refuse to address that piece of shit as a human being
The bully-victim whines again.
“Only I get to punch, if you hit back you’re a bully!” said a sniffling Trump.
Trump employed those children as high government officials.
And he wants to keep it in the family.
The fucking whining never stops with this guy.
It was a part of his campaign promises
May they never know peace again
Lmao. They should play something to annoy that dickhead, similar to how they obliged a Tory who demanded that they play God Save the Queen at the end of broadcast day… but instead with Sex Pistols.
Brilliant! It’s just a pity the credits ended before getting to the “No future” part, given that this was meant to celebrate the UK’s departure from the EU.
I am ok with that, even if it was true. I grant billionaire kinda no rights or legal recourse. They can go wah wah wah am they want, but you could say anything that follows “I was wronged by the following ______” and I would laugh and cheer for everything in the blank. Including getting fucking merc"d. I actively cheer for tyrant death and suffering. Every problem you have is a victory for real people. There is no “low” we can sink to that will ever make me feel like you are getting any problem you don’t deserve more of. You could be forced to watch your kids penetrated by flaming devil dicks while you bleed out while the world watches your diaper fill and you try to hold your intestines in and I will just watch and laugh.
I can never have any favorable feeling to you, and literally no situation is bad enough for what you deserve. You deserve torture, agony, anguish, and for all of that to happen forever. You actually deserve a literal biblical hell. Not infinitely, maybe. We can pull you out every few millennia and see if you’ve changed your tune maybe. But you definitely deserve more than a lifetime amount of it.
“You” being trump in particular, but really any billionaire capitalist.
