Trump’s attacks also come amid growing concerns about the #safety of federal #judges. Reuters found that #threats against fed judges have more than doubled since late 2020, when #Trump significantly increased his criticism of the #judiciary.
#GagOrder Against #Trump Is Expanded to Stop Attacks on Judge’s Family
Donald Trump had in recent days targeted the daughter of Juan #Merchan, the judge overseeing his #criminal trial in Manhattan, in blistering social media posts.
One fraudster gets 25 years . The time it took from the arrest to jail two years and he was in another country.
The other fraudster , who SAed a woman , had multiple SA accusations, ran grifter charities, schemes and scams , stochastic terror on our Capitol, fake electors, oversaw inept pandemic response that led to excess deaths in the thousands , fake University, Steaks , Wines , a total snakeoil salesman with 88 indictments no jail and is running for President. WTF! #fraud#loser#trump

The #CooperativeBank is currently running a terrible promotion where you get an email from the bank directing you to a form where you enter your card details for a chance to win a cash prize (https://www.visa.co.uk/campaign/co-operativebank/win-little-help-a-lot/) And as far as I can tell this is all actually completely legit, but this really isn't the sort of behaviour the bank should be encouraging its customers to engage in!
"I want to associate myself with all my colleagues both at MSNBC and at NBC News who have voiced loud and principled objections to our company putting on the payroll someone who hasn't just attacked us as journalists
“but someone who is part of an ongoing project to get rid of our system of government."

But when pressed to say whether or not it was the result of #fraud, she refused to say… though she pointed to "an explosion in PA mail-in ballots in 2020 (in mid-#pandemic) vs 2016 (pre-pandemic.)
Later, she "condemned the violence of #Jan6" but never said who she blamed. #AntiFa
@realTuckFrumper
The "[#DonTheCon] shouldn't be prosecuted for Real Estate [#Fraud] b/c no one was hurt" argument is not only a lie, but no different than saying "It's okay if you drove drunk so long as no one got hurt." #VictimlessCrime
¿ Trump’s Net Worth Hits $6.5B, Making Him One of Bloomberg’s World’s 500 Richest People¿ [several caveats to this]
#Trump’s business empire was supposed to be in peril like never before on Mon. Instead, it turned into the single-greatest day on record for his wealth.
Facing a deadline to post a #bond of >$500M in a #NY#fraud#lawsuit, a state appeals court tossed him a lifeline, slashing it to $175M — an amt he says he’ll cover. Around the same time, his #socialmedia co #TrumpMedia & Tech Group wrapped up a 29-month-long merger process, meaning shares worth billions on paper are now officially #Trump’s.
"Whatever his far-fetched beliefs, Mr. Barreto, now 49, was right about one thing: an obscure New York City rent law that provided him with many a New Yorker’s dream."
The ruling by a 5-judge panel of appellate court judges is a crucial & unexpected victory for #Trump, staving off a looming financial disaster. Had the court denied his request — & he failed to obtain the full #bond — he was at risk of losing control over his bank accts &, eventually, even some of his properties.
For now, those dire outcomes might be on hold. The bond will prevent the #NYAG’s office, which brought the #civil#fraud case, from collecting the judgment while he appeals.
per Lisa Rubin, though I’m not sure, pt4 seems to address this
#Trump got his #civil#fraud case #bond reduced to $175M…,but the court denied his motion to stay the provision of the judgment forbidding him from borrowing from financial institutions registered or chartered in #NY.
His #legal team previously told a judge on the panel that staying that provision was integral to his ability to obtain a bond.w/o a stay of that provision, Trump may have to post his own cash in the next 10 days. #law
The court DID stay the provision barring #Trump & his companies from borrowing from financial institutions registered or chartered by NY's Department of Financial Services. Trump now has to post less & can borrow $ more easily.
There’s speculation that the appellate court is signaling that they may reduce the disgorgement amount. Which they should not. #Trump has been benefiting from this #fraud for decades & not paying the correct amount in taxes for both #NY state & federal #taxes by lying about the values of his assets.
NEW: A California judge has recommended that John #Eastman, the lawyer at the center of Trump's efforts to overturn the 2020 election, be disbarred and lose his #law license.
#Scotus' Ginni Thomas's good friend and fellow insurrectionist John Eastman, the former Orange County law school dean who helped forge Donald Trump’s legal strategy for retaining power after losing his 2020 presidential bid, should be disbarred, a State Bar Court judge ruled Wednesday.
Judge Yvette Roland’s recommendation to yank the 63-year-old Eastman’s license to practice law in California will go to the state Supreme Court, which has the power to approve it.
In a marathon trial that lasted off and on from June to November, the State Bar, the agency that regulates lawyers, Eastman is unfit to practice law for peddling bogus claims that fraud cost Trump the election and for promoting a fake-elector scheme to block the electoral count.
