- Federal judge orders Trump to divulge financial details in BBC defamation lawsuit discovery — US magistrate judge Enjoliqué Lett ruled during a discovery hearing that Donald Trump must disclose detailed financial information from his businesses as part of his $10 billion defamation lawsuit against the BBC. The ruling stems from Trump's 2025 lawsuit over a 2024 BBC documentary that edited footage of his January 6 speech. The judge also authorized the BBC to subpoena dozens of Trump associates, including family members and advisers like Donald Trump Jr., Steve Bannon, and Stephen Miller, to investigate Trump's intentions on January 6. Trump's legal team indicated it will appeal the decision and attempt to amend the complaint to narrow the scope.
