President Donald Trump has threatened a $1 billion lawsuit against the BBC after two of its executives resigned over a deceptive edit of his speech on Jan. 6, 2021, before the Capitol riot.

Trump’s legal team is giving the British public broadcaster until Friday to retract any “false, defamatory, disparaging, and inflammatory statements” about him, according to a Sunday letter. Otherwise, a civil action lawsuit seeking up to $1 billion in damages will be filed.
