Earlier this year, the lawsuit-happy con man and convicted felon the Malignant Loser sued the venerable British Broadcasting Corporation, falsely claiming that in a broadcast the network edited his infamous speech to his violent mob on January 6, 2021, to suggest that he called for violence ("if you don't fight like hell, you're not going to have a country anymore"). Yesterday a Federal judge in Florida ruled that, because the lying MF claimed the BBC broadcast injured his reputation, his financial and business records must be provided to the BBC in the discovery process. From Politico:
"U.S. Magistrate Judge Enjoliqué Lett concluded that Trump’s sweeping complaint put injury to his businesses at the forefront and made their vitality a fair subject for the BBC to demand information about.
'All of President Trump’s brand, properties and businesses are impugned or said to have been impugned. Reputational, economic damages, all of that is now at issue in this case,' Lett said at the conclusion of a three-hour hearing.
Her decision opened the door for the BBC to explore the finances of more than 400 companies owned by a Trump family trust, but Trump can appeal the ruling to U.S. District Court Judge Roy Altman, a Trump appointee." (our emphasis)
You can bet that the moronic MF will do everything he can to avoid releasing any of his financial and business records, just about as fiercely as he's blocked the release of the remaining Trump-Epstein files to shield his perverse relationship with the pedophile.
As in many of his frivolous lawsuits intended to intimidate, misdirect and gaslight, the MF has shot himself in the foot with his false claims. This legal boomerang, if it gets past an MF-appointed judge, is a classic: handing financial information on himself to one of the world's greatest media companies.
