I think that perhaps is the one person besides Dahmer who truly got what people hoped he would get behind bars. And that guy took his time with him— his killer pre-labelled him as a “prize”.
Boston criminals: we'll let you get away with it for decades, but when it finally catches up to you, oh boy does it.
https://www.cnbc.com/2024/03/18/tru...d-in-new-york-fraud-case-his-lawyers-say.html Trump can't make a $464m bond happen. He's already paid the E. Jean Carroll one, sort of. Apparently, finding a company to handle a bond of that size isn't easy, nor would any of them want to deal with Trump. Lol. Sucks to suck.
Who would have thought that capitalizing a half billion dollar company to be in the business of vouching for one of the most untrustworthy people in America would be difficult in a capitalist economy.
I think it'd have to be NY assets or things that were explicitly involved in defrauding the state of NY. Also, I think this is a hilarious way of getting Trump, Inc. assets described in detail.
I don't think Florida assets are out of reach, but they'll be a much bigger pain to get and I imagine Florida Republicans will try to interfere in the whole process. Much easier to seize assets within NY state. This is also probably why Trump tried to sneak a bunch of his shit down to Florida, which the monitor caught.
No wonder he is trying to get his kids in charge of the RNC, he certainly doesn't care if it loses its non profit status.
In a surprise to nobody, violent Russian dictator, Vladimir Putin, won reelection. In a speech, Putin condemned the criminal charges against Donald Trump as use of the judiciary for political aims. Because that's the endorsement of one half of our presidential ballot we were all hoping for. And here's the other half, if you thought that would make it an easy choice.... I'm sorry... if you lead that which many consider the most powerful nation on the planet, you should never walk around a room like you're looking for Betsy at the pancake breakfast in the retirement home. Sure, she wasn't near the fish tank, as usual, but at least play it off like you meant to go over there and hit on Margaret before finding your seat.
Does anyone else have a feeling that someone is either going to bail him out at the last minute (Ex: the Saudis through a shell corporation), or that his lawyers will make some kind of appeal to a hand-picked judge stating that such an event is unprecedented, thus Trump should be given a pass? Because that's all I've been seeing with Trump my whole life. Why should this time be any different? I'm not going to hold my breath.
It's starting to seem like trumps finances are going to be a campaign issue. Not just the amounts owed for the judgements (which he said he had in excess of $400m in cash in a deposition. Which begs the question why the fuck would you lie about that under oath?). But the icky loans and who holds them...a Chinese bank leased space in one of his properties to the tune of $7m and then suddenly in 2021 moved out. Foreign entities holding his debt (Deutche Bank being the most...prominent) are problematic. I can envision some very. VERY uncomfortable truths emerging about properties or assets that NY would seize and look into as part of the seizure. Put another way: assuming he inflated the values of his properties to the tune of billions, and his various interests are in debt from $1.2 to as much as $4bn right now. ..what other financial crimes did he commit? And knowing the financial laws are very different for elected officials, especially when it comes to foreign interests... The dirt may not ever emerge into public view, but there is simply no way a sitting US president financed a few billion dollars worth of activity into his business via foreign entities without committing crimes. I think the statute of limitations is the only real issue, but the NY stuff can put him in the court of public opinion all day long.
