Americas2 sources1 country🔦 Under-reported50m ago
Donald Trump has been ordered by a judge to sit for a deposition by December 11 in his defamation lawsuit against the BBC, facing potential sanctions and the possible dismissal of the case if he fails to comply. The legal action involves a $14.2 billion lawsuit filed by Trump against the British broadcaster.
The litigation stems from allegations that the BBC defamed Trump by splicing together two segments of a speech he delivered to supporters prior to the January 6, 2021, storming of the US Capitol.
