    Think I watch too much porn … I read that differently at first (also: even funnier)

    Trump specifically alleged in the lawsuit that he filed that the BBC caused him to lose a bunch of money. He should expect the BBC to be able to obtain documents that would tend to prove or disprove how much money he lost.

    His lawyers should have definitely seen this one coming. And they shouldn’t wait until the day before the deadline to file their opposition. The one-day “emergency” is completely of their own creation.

    • Sounds like they were hoping for an out of court settlement that would make Trump a quick billion and they were in “any day now” mode, not expecting someone to fight back. The whole Strait of Hormuz thing went exactly the same.

        Anyone who thought the BBC, which is funded by TV taxes paid by regular Britons, was going to be allowed to pay that dipshit’s bribe, should apply for the new attorney general spot.

          Attenborough: So when it was said this particular sociopathic predator brought out the worst in people, it was not simply limited to his sycophants. Random denizens on the interwebs frequently fell victim to it too, as we can see in this case

    Trump has discovered discovery for the first time. He usually doesn’t get that far in court.

        I was making a joke but I didn’t know Canada had a similar network. In the US we had PBS which was a non-commercial free to air channel funded partially by public funds.

    I’ve seen this kind of content before. Usually when there’s a question of whether someone can handle BBC, they do.
