Trump ordered to pay legal fees in ‘Steele dossier’ lawsuit
The Hill ^ | 4/03/25 | Lauren Irwin

Posted on 04/03/2025 2:18:51 PM PDT by Libloather

A judge in the United Kingdom has ordered President Trump to pay more than $820,000 in legal fees to the company representing former British spy Christopher Steele after he unsuccessfully sued over a dossier.

In 2022, Trump filed a claim against Orbis Business Intelligence, a firm founded by Steele, a former MI6 agent who published a 35-page dossier that featured claims about Trump ahead of the 2016 election.

Trump argued the company violated British data protection laws and that he suffered a personal and reputational damage because of the claims.

However, in 2024, London Judge Karen Steyn tossed out the case because “there are no compelling reasons” to allow the case to go to trial.

The dossier claimed Trump had been “compromised” by Russia’s security service and said the now-president took part in “sex parties” in Saint Petersburg, The Associated Press reported.

Steyn has now ordered Trump to pay the costs for Orbis’s lawyers, which the president said has been set “outrageously high.”

Trump failed to pay the first installment, and a hearing was set to decide for him to pay the full bill.

Message to the judge: This country is not ruled by England anymore.

It often makes one wonder if saving their butts in WWII was actually worth it. The problem is that the Germans would most likely have gotten the A-Bomb and bombed the crap out of anyone and everyone starting with the Russians but eventually getting to us. Even the Japanese wouldn't have been safe. We would all be speaking German.

I am getting to the point where I want to see these people bludgeoned to death for their arrogance and tyranny.

And by "these people" I mean these arrogant judges.

Like the Amish

You have to be blind not to notice this trend I’ve dealt with all my life

However I do try hard to always salute the exceptions to that rule

It’s providential I’ve grown to accept

Tell them no, then bill them for the burning of Washington in the war of 1812.

The Brits have many traditions, some worthy of remembrance. Ironically , those seem to be the ones they’ve chosen to forget or discard. Barring an uprising, I don’t see them saving themselves.

Better yet, use the $820,000 to hire a bunch of people to put it about the UK Muslim community that she wiped her bum with a Koran, then spit on it and burned it.

Deep fake AI pictures & videos, the whole nine yards.

We'll see how long she lasts.
