Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!

Rules:

  1. Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.

Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.

Example:

  1. Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
  2. Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
  3. No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
  4. Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
  5. No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning

We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.

All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.

That's all the rules!

A New York appeals court on Monday agreed to hold off collection of former President Donald Trump’s $454 million civil fraud judgment — if he puts up $175 million within 10 days.

If he does, it will stop the clock on collection and prevent the state from seizing his assets while he appeals.

Delay. Delay. Delay.

If the courts don't provide justice, eventually some other means will.

I'm not allowed to say what I hope the other means are. But it sure would be nice if he pissed off Boeing's board...

I was expecting further bullshit and a "justice" system that enables the same but I am still somehow disappointed.

[–] [email protected] 24 points 8 months ago (4 children)

So the only hope for any real justice is a heart attack while he's on the john?

FfS AG James should appeal.

The money lets him appeal - it sets the bond for the appeal.

It does not reduce the disgorgement.

Burn it all down

[–] [email protected] 19 points 8 months ago (1 children)

The fuck do they mean an appeals court ruled on this, the 454 million was the appeal, the bond required to be posted to appeal the ruling. No other courts have jurisdiction over this shit, ignore that illegitimate court.

I think this is signaling that they intend to reduce the fine on appeal.

[–] [email protected] 25 points 8 months ago

Of course they intend to reduce the fine on appeal. Donnie owns the purse strings for the RNC. Conservatives cannot afford him going broke.

Someone just needs to end this already by any means necessary. If the justice system won't provide justice, someone else will.

[–] [email protected] 14 points 8 months ago

Is anyone still buying into these theatrics? They clearly aren't going to do anything to their both sides parties.

[–] [email protected] 13 points 8 months ago

US is an oligarchy.

[–] [email protected] 13 points 8 months ago

I’m numb. I care but I don’t. Nothing surprises me anymore. Fuck this guy and all his toadies.
