    Who the hell wrote that headline?

      Great point! I submitted a correction request to the BBC. The media can’t stop treating this chucklefuck with kid gloves (you know…the kind of gloves worn on this dictator-wannabe’s baby hands).

      Edit: Great news! The BBC updated the headline to one that is more accurate. Great job, fam!

      That headline had me asking myself the same thing. Was this an order to pay or was this what the NY times asked for in the suit. Apparently the former. WTF is with the media?

      Considering how everyone else on the right has been staving off actually paying what they owe, I think it’s kind of accurate

      I want to know how author figured out the judge is a Democrat and that it matters. Is it because he is black?
