How did Trump allegedly use the Secret Service to block subpoenas in the BBC lawsuit?
Donald Trump has been caught in the act ordering the Secret Service to cover up his dark past as Donald Trump has filed these frivolous lawsuits, in my opinion, in his personal capacity against organizations like the BBC, which Donald Trump claims defamed him when you have entities like bbc fighting back and sending subpoenas to get information about donald trump's dark past to people like don jr because some of donald trump's allegations and his so-called 10 billion dollar lawsuits relate to third-party witnesses like don jr Donald Trump is ordering, apparently, according to filings, the Secret Service to literally shield and block Don Jr. from getting served. Do you also recall that when Michael Wolff sued Melania over Donald Trump's dark past, one of the main issues that Melania raised was,
to a Trump-appointed judge in the Southern District of New York was that she couldn't be served. And because she couldn't be served, that case had to be dismissed. Ultimately, Viscosell, the name of the federal judge who Trump appointed in the Southern District of New York, in the Melania case, ruled that the judge just didn't have jurisdiction and said, go on, Melania, I don't have jurisdiction over this Michael Wolff case. But if you want to sue Michael Wolff for defamation, then I may be able to hear this case. But over and over again, this Trump regime, they act to Donald Trump files a $10 billion lawsuit. Melania says that she's gonna sue Michael Wolff for a billion dollars. Then Wolff sues her.
Don Jr. calls out all of these people on his social media platform. But then what do these cowards do? They run and they use the faculties of the federal government to try to block subpoenas because they don't want to turn over documents. They don't want to sit for depositions. They don't want to have to answer under oath. And in this BBC case, I'm going to go through these filings with you. Guess what the Trump regime did again? They had the Department of Justice try to intervene in federal court to file a notice of interest to try to block subpoenas to Don Jr., to Ivanka, to various federal agencies, to other people who don't even work in the federal government. And the Department of Justice is saying, we think that the BBC does not have a right to defend itself in a $10 billion lawsuit that Donald Trump filed against the BBC.
A few months back, Donald Trump sued the BBC in his personal capacity, not as the president of the United States. Like the weak, pathetic thing he is, he sued for $10 billion. He loved that headline.
Why is the BBC seeking discovery about Trump's finances and January 6th edits?
And the BBC's playing hardball. They're not playing by Wall Street Journal or New York Times rules where they just file a motion to dismiss and wait to propound discovery. The BBC says, okay, we're going to send out a ton of of subpoenas and we want all of the financial documents, Donald, from your trust. Because we wanna see if you claim you've been injured $10 billion, show us the money, show us your financials. We know that since you've been in office, you've been profiting to the tune of billions of dollars. Show us your losses if you're claiming a $10 billion loss. So if you're gonna bring a $10 billion lawsuit, then do it. Man up, person up, step up, do it. But what did Donald Trump do? No, you can't do the trust.
I don't want to give you those records. I'm not going to give you my tax information. I'm just going to go and do social media posts on Truth Social where I whine and complain and attack you. But I don't want to deal with it in court because that's how pathetic. these people are, that's how pathetic they are. And the BBC then said, okay, well, one of the things you're accusing us of doing is editing footage in a documentary that like really nobody even saw to make it appear that you, Donald Trump, were responsible for inflaming the January 6th insurrection. So let's just accept we made the edits. So we need to then prove that it somehow defames you, Donald, to say that you inflamed or incited the January 6th insurrection.
So let's litigate J6.
