Still going ahead, in a year's time.

Trial date set for Trump's legal case against BBC

[Tubby Isaacs]

The BBC will presumably try and get it chucked out.

[Abernathy]

Didn’t they already try and get the case struck out ?

It looks as though Trump has been simply deploying his usual tactic of threatening to sue for billions but counting on the defendant to settle out of court for a large sum before it reaches the court. The BBC is looks pretty solid in its. intent to defend Trump’s action. I can envisage Trump dropping the action before Feb 2027.

Wouldn’t it be nifty if Auntie Beeb brought a counter action against Trump, though ?

Trump's currently huffing and puffing with threats to sue Trevor Noah. For making a joke about him and Esptein at the Grammys.

There will be various tests the case has to meet at different stages, I should think. So there will probably more chances.

Lots of his supporters seriously see "free speech" as being a reason to vote for him. What can you do about this stuff?
