No. The possessive its is similar to the possessives his and hers. None of these three possessives contain an apostrophe.Gregg wrote: ↑Sun Apr 02, 2023 3:14 pm I thought for just a minute I was doing it wrong all my life. I was taught that if it can be read "It is" then it has the apostrophe. The possessive does not have one, unlike any other possessive in the English language, because in English no rule is a rule unless it only applies sometimes.

When you remember that Pirro was pushed from office in disgrace over her role in her husband’s tax fraud, her love of criminals makes more sense.
Junior is not happy about a potential gag order being imposed on daddy.
And points out the case is past the “Stature” of Limitations.

She may be an adult, but she is a very young adult from the looks, fwiw. Horrible bringing her to the attentions of the crazy trumpers.
