Bexar County District Attorney Joe Gonzales said on Tuesday that his office was reviewing charges into the incident in which dozens of migrants were flown from San Antonio to Massachusetts under false pretenses.
Instead of having to put up a bond of $454M or more to avoid having New York state collect some of his properties to pay his fraud judgment, it turns out now Donald Trump only needs to put up $175M.
I sure wish I could get a fine reduced to less than 40% of its original amount just by whining and complaining on social media.
A New York appeals court has agreed to hold off collection of former President Donald Trump’s more than $454 million civil fraud judgment if he puts up $175 million within 10 days. If Trump does, it will stop the clock on collection and prevent the state from seizing his assets while he appeals. Monday's order is a significant victory for Trump as the presumptive Republican nominee defends the real estate empire that vaulted him into public life. The development came just before New York Attorney General Letitia James was expected to initiate efforts to collect the judgment. Trump says he'll post a bond, securities or cash to cover the $175 million.
Unequal justice lies
In Texas' dark history
Families' grief untold

WTF? The only black man indicted with Trump denied bail. The only one who has been denied bail out of the 19 indicted with Trump. 😡
Sadly this doesn't surprise me but it still infuriates me.
I really doubt a non-County Sheriff driving drunk with .1 blood test some time later, because he refused breathalyzer on-scene. 100 mph crash into a car without touching brakes and possibly no headlights on -- would get only 2-misdemeanor charges.
