It's Tuesday here in Seoul, but it's still Monday on the US east coast—the day that Trump is due to pay his bond in the Letitia James-Arthur Engoron real-estate case. And there has been at least one major development while I slept.
In the vid below, Styx mentions the idea that, if Letitia James is going to try to collect Trump's Mar-a-Lago property in Florida, that's going to be chaotic. How can New York grab a Florida property, especially when the Florida legal system (and presumably, Florida's governor) is much more sympathetic to Trump?
But Styx made the above video before a thing happened. An appeals court just agreed to cut the amount of Trump's bond way down, from $475 million to $175 million. This comes with a ten-day grace period and is a victory for Trump. Some righties are crowing that this is a major victory, but in the larger scheme of things, I see this as only a minor victory. We can all agree, though, that is represents a major frustration for ego-driven Letitia James.
The vid below covers the witch-hunt aspect of Letitia James's efforts:
Doug in Exile focuses on the corrupt nature of the judgment against Trump. The fact that the appeals court slashed the bond amount so extremely is evidence that the original amount was unconstitutionally unreasonable (8th Amendment):
