A New York judge presiding over former President Donald Trump’s civil fraud case has denied his legal team’s request to avoid paying a $355 million penalty in the case.

Trump lawyers had asked Judge Arthur Engoron to delay enforcement of the payment by 30 days to allow time for an "orderly post-judgement process."

James said Monday she was prepared to seize former President Donald Trump's assets if he is unable to pay the massive judgment handed down in his civil fraud case.

Trump's promised appeal is likely to halt collection of his penalty while the process plays out.

They want to bankrupt him and otherwise punish him any way they can think of, because ...Bad Orange MAGA.

They’re all Marxists and Globalists, and Trump stands in their way. Simple as that.

Disgusting and un-American.

Feel free to send this to your Congressional ‘representative’:

‘ESSENTIAL’ FEDERAL SPENDING BILL

....

The Treasury shall withhold payment of all funding under current federal law to the State of New York, the City of New York, the City of Buffalo, New York County, Kings County, Queens County, Bronx County and Erie County and pay it instead to Donald J. Trump upon his application at any IRS office in the State of Florida until he has received $550 million in reallocated funds.

Payment he shall so receive shall be free of federal revenue imposition.

The key factor is that no bank would grant Trump et al. a mortgage for more than the value of the property.

Trump and his people would not buy a property for more than it is worth.

Over time real property tends to increase in value.

Outside of NYC and SF, real property is doing swell.

NYC has problems now, but Mayor Adams is working to deal with them. Is Mayor Adams lying? Should he have to disgorge his salary? Should Governor Hochul have to disgorge her salary? Should the governmental employees and former employees have to disgorge their salaries, healthcare benefits and pension?

Should Joe Biden have to disgorge ~1/20% (NYS has about 1/20th of the US population) of his presidental income?

And people thought I was kidding when I said living in NYC is like living in North Korea but with food. The corruption is absolutely insane.

“repetition of any separate and distinct fraudulent or illegal act, or conduct that affects more than one person.”

Banks are not humans.

No bank was adversely affected.

“award the relief applied for”

None of the banks Trump et al. dealt with with respect to the case needed or need any sort of relief because of Trump et. al.

The law doesn’t say award the thief.

I wish I shared your optimism.

"For I envied the arrogant when I saw the prosperity of the wicked.
They have no struggle in their death; their bodies are well-fed.
They are free of the burdens others carry; they are not afflicted like other men.
Therefore pride is their necklace; a garment of violence covers them.
From their prosperity proceeds iniquity;a the imaginations of their hearts run wild.
They mock and speak with malice; with arrogance they threaten oppression.
They set their mouths against the heavens, and their tongues strut across the earth.
So their peopleb return to this place and drink up waters in abundance.
The wicked say, “How can God know? Does the Most High have knowledge?”
Behold, these are the wicked— always carefree as they increase their wealth.
Surely in vain I have kept my heart pure; in innocence I have washed my hands.
For I am afflicted all day long and punished every morning.
If I had said, “I will speak this way,” then I would have betrayed Your children.
When I tried to understand all this, it was troublesome in my sight
until I entered God’s sanctuary; then I discerned their end.
Surely You set them on slick ground; You cast them down into ruin.
How suddenly they are laid waste, completely swept away by terrors!
Like one waking from a dream, so You, O Lord, awaken and despise their form." - David speaking to the Lord in Psalm 73.

Everyone need to stop aiding these political hack states especially NY.
I already closed my credit cards attributed to NY banks. And switched insurance.

Every little bit helps.

Which action does irreparable harm, forcing a sale or denying a change in ownership pending appeal?
I don’t know much about the law, but I’d think the judicial system would decide that waiting does no harm.

Exactly. I left NY state in the early 50’s. NY is pure trash. Dump this state to Canada.

That is a very good idea. But my credit card is from Bank of America, and they have branches in almost every state. But I did cancel my credit card from Goldman Sachs.

Your reasoning is so clear and simple that I seriously doubt any judge or lawyer would be able to understand it.

Thanks Republican Party of NY for being so useless that these insane activists became judges with no opposition.

I got rid of cable TV. DO not miss it at all. I get enough stations from a $12.95 antenna (one time cost).

You are correct that our deliverance from the West’s evil rulers will come from the Hand of the Lord, not the hand of man.
