President Trump on Wednesday filed an emergency motion to stop the British Broadcasting Corporation from gaining broad access to intimate details about his finances.
The emergency stay is the latest development in how Trump’s $10 billion defamation lawsuit against the BBC, triggered by a 2024 episode of Panorama titled “Trump, a Second Chance,” is backfiring. Last month, U.S. Magistrate Judge Enjoliqué Lett allowed the BBC to move forward with gaining access to the financial information of at least 400 business entities owned by Trump’s family trust. Lett set a Thursday deadline for the BBC to get hold of his financial records.
Now Trump is scrambling to stop what he started from blowing up in his face.

Jesus he must look so pale and pathetic without his makeup. Nothing about this person is close to real. A true embodiment of a con.

Emergency? Does that word have any meaning at all anymore?
