Behind the paywall:
The BBC has“issued a wave of subpoenas“ to dozens of members of Trump’s inner circle „as part of its defense in his $10-billion defamation lawsuit.“ [Larson counted](https://e.newsletters.cnn.com/click?Ec2FpbHNoYWJvb21AZ21haWwuY29t/CeyJtaWQiOiIxNzgxMDE2NzIwNjczY2ZjMzA0YWJhZTYwIiwiY3QiOiJjbm4tZmNhZjY0YTdkN2M4ZjNmZWUxZDZhOWYwYjgyYjhhNDQtMSIsInJkIjoiZ21haWwuY29tIn0/VaHR0cHM6Ly93d3cuYmxvb21iZXJnLmNvbS9uZXdzL2FydGljbGVzLzIwMjYtMDYtMDUvdHJ1bXAtaW5uZXItY2lyY2xlLXN1YnBvZW5hZWQtYnktYmJjLWluLTEwLWJpbGxpb24tbGliZWwtc3VpdA/SWkhfQ05OX2lfTmV3c19OREJBTjA2MDkyMDI2YzIxMzcwNzM/LY24x/gaigonA/JMDYwOTIwMjZDMjEzNzA3Mw/s7l6691b43d) 47 subpoenas to „members of Trump’s family and Cabinet, as well as the Department of Justice and other federal agencies,“ specifically to probe „the president’s intent and state-of-mind“ before his infamous January 6, 2021, speech at the Ellipse. This is what happens in discovery: the plaintiff gets scrutinized, too.
this is the way
Discovery, please!
I never thought Trump would allow this to get to discovery. I wonder how many members of his inner circle will be willing to lie in court for him.
I am not a lawyer but my guess is they ignore it, and claim executive privilege.
The only way to stop the evil is through their in the wallets.
Finally an organization ready to call Trump’s bluff on these lawsuits.
Drag them all into sworn statements, including Trump.
The cowardly American institutions that have folded to Trump have just strengthened his resolve to butress his lies with legal threats.
Ahahah beautiful get them where it hurts their cash, they dont have morals or morality hope the legal bills are huge. (Implying Trump and his cabinet)
God bless the common law
Go get ‚em Beeb.
Exactly what CBS should’ve done, the cowards
Get an independent panel of doctors to assess his state of mind. We all know the consensus will be hilarious.
The BBC of all people?… guess we finally owe an apology to England for the thing with the Tea back in 1773.
On our 250th anniversary, the Brits have issued a spanking
Go get ‘em BBC
It’d be a shame if the BBC setup a GoFundMe for litigation costs.
So….Trump will drop it then bc he is all talk.
Fucking Discovery is awesome.
British libel laws are far more brutal than US ones.
BBC will have *receipts upon receipts*. It’s like challenging Lebron James to a game of Horse.
So we’re bombing BBC 4 next week?
What an amusing number of subpoenas issued: 47. The BBC apparently has some of the world’s greatest trolls on their legal team.
I bet those alphas saw BBC and started drooling.
Trump fucked by BBC.
discovery is a bitch!
As an American, I bend the knee to the English on this one…
We need the help! From our bruv’s across the Atlantic.
Trump is in a battle of wits and he is clearly unarmed.
Don’t give and inch and make him pay.
GO BBC!!!
This is the shit Trump wastes his time on when he’s not obsessed with trans people and underage girls.
Question for a lawyer or solicitor (I think that’s what you red coats call them).
If Trump caves now that there is push back and drops the suit to avoid discover, can BBC countersue for frivolous charges (I’m sure there is a more legal term) to force the subpoenaed individuals to suit for interviews?
