NY AG James raises concerns over firm backing Trump's $175 million bond
Just the News ^ | 4/4/24 | Ben Whedon

Posted on 04/04/2024 5:44:33 PM PDT by CFW

New York Democratic Attorney General Letitia James's office this week, expressed concerns about the company that posted former President Donald Trump's $175 million bond.

Trump posted the sum on Monday as part of a New York civil fraud case against him. The original sum was markedly higher at $464 million, though the New York appeals court last month reduced it to the $175 million amount.

James's office, however, indicated Thursday that it had doubts about Knight Specialty Insurance Company and demanded either it or Trump prove the firm could afford to pay the sum.

"Defendants or (Knight) shall file a motion to justify the surety within ten days of the service of this notice, failing which the Bond shall be without effect, except that the surety shall remain liable on the Bond until a new undertaking is given and allowed," her office wrote, according to The Hill.

James was so sure she was going to be on the front page of every newspaper as she padlocked Trump's properties. She is pissed that the bond was reduced and Trump was able to post it.

She needs to be disbarred imprisoned along with the Judge in this case.

If Lloyds of London had posted the bond she would find something to reject it.

I suspect the left is trying to lay the groundwork to bring campaign finance violation charges against Trump. Questioning where the funds originate is the first step.
The second step is to claim political donations are involved.
The FEC tried to do that to Trump before. They claimed Trumps payment to Stormy Daniels was an illegal payment using campaign funds. The FEC board deadlocked with a 2-2 vote.
They want to do this again.

If I had, say, about a billion dollars in cash laying around I’d pay Trump’s entire ‘fine’; the whole almost $500 million, not just the reduced bond, and not ask him for repayment, Just to infuriate the left in general, and Leftitia and Engmoron in particular. Yeah, I despise them that much.

‘Shark Tank’ host Kevin O’Leary is right.

This lawfare will ruin New York and the United States in general.

Why invest here if it can all be taken away on trumped up charges (pun intended).

And why would anyone listen to American politicians when they go overseas to crow about democracy?

Wasn’t the Daniels payment from personal funds, yet New York is claiming it should be from campaign funds because it helped his campaign?

This is why Trump couldn’t raise the original $464m bond. Any company that sticks their neck out for Trump is risking the wrath of the administrative and legal State, basically government-sponsored extortion.

Here is a question. If this is a real nation, how can one state get away with extortion?

English currency has a precious metal backing it, instead of air like American currency. That’s objectionable./s

James is sorely pished that the bond was made.Now she is attacking the Bond Company saying it is a schill?

James keeps sqatting, shitting in public, and then stepping in it.Then she walks her feces in tracks all around town.You can smell her coming blocks away.

I doubt she will survive her next electoral vote.

Meanwhile Trump trolls her mercilessly.Looks good.

This kangaroo court case will be reversed on appeal.

So why does it gave to come from rich people?

There are millions of Americans still loyal to our former republic.

Why can’t we all send him a few bucks to make his bond?
