Good. Keep at it until you find all the buried bodies.
But there are so many…
They should start with that golf course...
Then we will keep at it until we find them all.
I'm a big fan of Ms. James. She's great.
Letitia James for President!
None of this means anything till we start seeing actual consequences
Any day now.....right?
hahahah hes got his own butterymales problem hilarious.
Don't misgender him!
It's a "Butt Tizzy Males" problem.
I want to see a photo of Letitia James standing in the doorway of Trump Tower spinning the keys around her finger. And smiling that Cheshire cat smile.
Great but don’t delay any penalties until it’s too late.
“Civil fraud victory”?? Did NY state actually get the 454 million?
454m was the verdict handed down by the judge. Trump still has the right to appeal, but he either needs to pay the verdict up front right away, or put up a bond to cover it while the appeals process goes forward.
The appeals court lowered the amount of the bond he would need to put up. The current issue is that the document that the bond company sent to the Court is not up to the proper standard, so the court gave Trump more time to remedy that. If he can't, it's possible the bond will get rejected.
We do we reward incompetence.
Like if the bond isnt up to snuff, why can't Letitia's lawyers write it for them? Oh you fucked it up, here, we don't reward incompetence, well let your persecution do it. Fuck you and your stupid games.
To be fair, it absolutely works the other way around. In countless towns and cities the upwardly clambering assistant DAs are screwing over people who have no money, piling on twenty, thirty charges for the same act to score points they plan to cash in for a bigger job.
Every day. Right now, in fact. Prison reform is critical, but the Justice system itself could use some patching up from countless decades of conservative fuckery.
Don’t forget, he’s also on the hook for $110K per day in interest, starting from the judgement day, and I don’t think she’ll let him dodge a nickle of it.
You go, girl!
Not yet, but once appeals are through he pays or they start seizing and selling his assets.
Once appeals are through or if the bond is found to be improper - in the latter case, he can still appeal, but she can seize his assets to collect the judgement in the interim.
Cool but he'd probably pass the consequences off to his staff and lawyers.
