Former President Donald Trump's escalating legal penalties are a little larger after a judge in the United Kingdom ordered him to pay more than $380,000 to a firm run by Christopher Steele, the ex-British spy who penned the infamous 2016 dossier accusing Trump of harboring close ties to the Russians.

Trump sued Steele's firm, Orbis Business Intelligence, in a London court in 2022 over claims that the series of memos known as the "Steele Dossier" harmed his reputation and violated British data privacy laws.

I like this! The man who was paid by Hillary to fabricate evidence meant to destroy a presidential candidate, and later elected president, wants to sue the man he defamed. Fraud has no bounds, and this UK judge has no concept of propriety, justice, or the rule of law. Screw ‘em both.

He owns at least one hotel in Scotland. Probably other assets as well. Maybe throw a few tariffs on British items when he takes office?

Trump should win the presidency then order the hit to kill the bastard for trying to overthrow the US government.

"You have to hand it to the left. They are audacious.."
The globalist oligarchs (so-called leftists) are in control of what used to be "the Free World" and have been for some time. Their long-term plans of "you will own nothing and eat bugs" is not very encouraging. Trump's presidency was a minor bump in their road. I doubt if they'll let it happen again.

Did GB ever repay the Lend part or the Lease part of the Lend-Lease deal?

Wondered if there was a receipt among our “closest allies”...

He can do that, and then he can watch as his golf course in Scotland is seized in lieu of payment.

Are MAGA types interested in America even having allies at all? Does Trump want to accelerate the demise of the USD as the world’s reserve currency and all the economic consequences that entails?

Trump owns millions of dollars of property in the UK under British legal jurisdiction, so that won’t be a problem.

The USD as the world’s reserve currency has been a disaster for its citizens as it led to empire and the hollowing out of our industry. A service economy cannot be a superpower.m and that is where we find ourselves today. Without a reserve currency our reptile rulers could no longer afford to impoverish us and enrich themselves.
