Trump threatens $1bn lawsuit against BBC Trump has threatened a USD$1bn (£740m) lawsuit against the BBC over a Panorama episode aired before the 2024 US election. Trump's legal team claims the program misrepresented his speech on 6th January 2021 by editing remarks to suggest he encouraged violence at the Capitol. Trump accuses the BBC of making "false, defamatory, disparaging, misleading, and inflammatory statements" about him.
President Trump attended the U.S. Open men's tennis finals on Sunday in Rolex's luxury box, stepping out of the suite briefly for an on-camera appearance during the national anthem. He drew mixed cheers and boos from the half-empty stadium. Due to enhanced security for the president's attendance, many ticketholders stood in long lines outside the venue waiting to get in as the match began.
