This lawfare gambit may not work, but these people never give up. There are trillions of dollars at stake here. Nobody gives money to these super pacs unless they expect it to comeback to them tenfold in favors.; 2/27/24, 8:18 PM

gadfly said...: New York AG James announced on February 25 that Trump's fraud judgment with interest had reached $464,805,336.70, jumping $114,553.04 in a single day. First of all, he has only 30 days to come up with the total judgment if he hopes to appeal. Unless the court decides differently, he can’t simply avoid paying until appeals are resolved; he has to provide the total amount in the interim. GoFundMe donations are about $1.2 million (which doesn't cover growing interest) but only about $100,000 has been added in the past week. RNC has no money to give and bail bonds don't go that high. So Trump puts up enough cash or property to secure the payoff plus interest or he simply cannot appeal the judgment unless he elects to have the court start a property fire sale.

And no, Tish James, ancient 40 Wall Street with a huge number of vacancies and close to $200,000,000 in mortgage debt due in 2025 is not worth half a billion dollars. Gross rents are something in the neighborhood of $40 million annually but operating costs like taxes, interest, and heavy maintenance take a big chunk of that amount.; 2/28/24, 2:52 AM
wendybar said...: Just imagine if this happened to a PROGRESSIVE AG. Did YOU hear about this?? Why not?? Ask yourself what kind of media ignores stories like this...and hypes lies like the tranny girl who died after pouring water on her bullies heads.

"'In the early hours of Saturday, February 24, an explosive device was detonated outside of the Alabama Attorney General’s Office building in Montgomery. Thankfully, no staff or personnel were injured by the explosion. The Alabama Law Enforcement Agency will be leading the investigation, and we are urging anyone with information to contact them immediately.'

The Alabama Law Enforcement Agency (ALEA) says they were notified of the explosion at 8:19am (CST) Monday morning."

Joe Biden doesn't give one crap about fixing the border. We wish he would just go to the zoo, eat ice cream and feed the animals. He likely wouldn't know the difference anyway, and at least something useful would be accomplished.

Too little too late Joe.

gilbar said...: What a wonderful way, to impose kangaroo courts!
I decide to (say), destroy gadfly..
So, I impose a HUGELY fine, on Trumped up charges, and decide that gadfly CANNOT appeal until he pays.
Gadfly has to ruin himself
Hurray!
Would that seem "fair" if it happened to YOU, gadfly?; 2/28/24, 5:27 AM
Humperdink said...: The gad gleefully reports an update: " Trump's fraud judgment with interest had reached $464,805,336.70, jumping $114,553.04 in a single day."

A couple of things. You do realize only two people decided this guilt and subsequent judgement - the goofball judge and a DA whose campaign was based on going after Trump. Two people. Secondly, the libs will not be power forever and just like Big Fani, once investigators turn over some rocks their corruptness will be exposed.; 2/28/24, 5:44 AM

And here you outline how NY may have given Trump a beneficial way out: Turn over junk real estate at the inflated values claimed by the prosecution. Trump unloads his trash and simultaneously saddles NY with it. You can't claim a property has Value X during a trial and then Value Y immediately afterwards. You also can't regain the trust of 1,000,000 other investors who are sure to avoid NY in the future.

This was a myopic and pyrrhic victory for NY, and part of NY's decades-long economic suicide. With the rise of remote work (e.g., per NY's aggressive COVID lockdowns) no one wants second tier office real estate any more: https://www.costar.com/; 2/28/24, 6:09 AM

Dutchman Tree Farms Under Scrutiny After Border Patrol Discovers 19 Illegal Immigrants on Traverse City Bus

"More information has come to light regarding the story we brought to you on Monday morning regarding a black painted school bus. The bus had been pulled over by Grand Traverse deputies on Friday around 10:15 a.m. when police officers saw the driver exhibiting erratic behavior, including swerving and lane departure.

The driver was given a traffic violation citation by GT County for improper lane use and then they called the United States Customs and Border Protection (CBP) after the driver reportedly gave the deputies confusing documentation.

In a press briefing with GT County on Monday morning, GT County Sheriff Michael Shea told Michigan News Source that there was a language barrier in communications with the driver and the bus occupants after the bus was pulled over. During that time, the driver had produced a digital CDL (Commercial Driver’s License) that the county doesn’t accept. When they contacted the Michigan State Police, they were unable to verify its validity.

According to independent journalist and contributor to Border Hawk News Izzy Lyman, who got a response from the U.S. Customs and Border Protection Office of Public Affairs in Detroit about the incident, the driver was also unable to produce a U.S. Driver’s license and presented deputies with a Mexican voter registration card.

Lyman also uncovered information that the bus riders were undocumented. Youssef Fawaz from the U.S. Customs and Border Protection Office of Public Affairs in Detroit told her, “On Friday, U.S. Border Patrol was contacted by the Grand Traverse County Sheriff’s office to assist after a bus transporting 19 undocumented non-citizens was pulled over by deputies for erratic driving.”

He went on to say, “Subsequently, the 19 undocumented non-citizens were transported to the Sault Ste. Marie Border Patrol Station where they were processed and served a Notice To Appear. The individuals have been placed in immigration removal proceedings. Additional information cannot be released due to an ongoing investigation.”

It is currently unknown what the ages and sex of the bus occupants were.

Sheriff Shea said that at no time when GT County was in control of the scene were the bus occupants in custody. However, they stayed on the bus voluntarily until approximately 2:30 p.m. in the afternoon when border patrol took over the scene, transported the bus occupants in their vehicles, and had the bus towed to an unknown location.

Leland said...: Once again progressives feign concern of foreign interference in US elections by citing other foreign interests interfering with US elections. Regardless of what third parties think, Putin made clear he considered Trump unpredictable and therefore didn’t do anything silly during Trump’s Presidency like invade Ukraine again, as he did the last time Biden was near the White House and Putin invaded Crimea.; 2/28/24, 9:08 AM
tim in vermont said...: I guess that Trump is supposed to growl at heads of state, like a distrustful dog, or call them "Crazy S.O.B.s" like Joe Biden called the man who sits on top of an arsenal of 6,000 nukes, and who is democratically elected. People here say, without evidence, that the elections in Russia are rigged, but Putin is at 80% approval in Russia, according to polls done by Western outfits. Yeah, Russia allows that.; 2/28/24, 11:55 AM
tim in vermont said...: The CIA thinks that Trump is Putin's response to Navalny, who was financed by the CIA, well, maybe they were worried he might be, and the suspicions leaked to the Democrats, and now that it's out there, they cannot back down, even though no evidence has ever turned up.

During the testimony of that law firm that faked up the hoax dossier, the guy, Glen something or other, said that he became especially suspicious of Trump when he came back from Moscow without any sweetheart deals from Putin, or the large Democrat donor, the Mayor of Moscow's wife, who just also happened to be exempted from sanctions for some reason...

He said that this was suspicious because it showed that Putin wanted to keep Trump squeaky clean in order to sneak him past the CIA and FBI. After all, any trustworthy politician dips his beak from time to time, or his friends get suspicious. I remember that line from Doonesbury, and sure enough, if Trump were ordinarily corrupt, like Biden, he could be trusted. This is also the reason they hated Sarah Palin, she was not corruptible.; 2/28/24, 12:01 PM
wendybar said...: Time to look into Leticia the crook James.

"Her campaign fund is paying for everything. Who will investigate the AG of New York.

"The first thing you’ll notice when you download and sort the expenditures of any politician running for reelection in a safe seat is how they use their campaign funds to supplement their lifestyles to a degree middle America could never dream of.
What do I mean? Well, in 2023 alone, James spent over $28,500 on hotels. Over $15,000 of that was spent on luxury hotels in Puerto Rico.""
