Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!
Rules:
- 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:
- 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.
- 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.
- 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.

When the actual fuck does the government go "you have not paid, we will start taking the money"?
Cause they will happily garnish your wages and take money from your bank account.
March 25th is the deadline for this judgement. The judgement was made on Feb 16th, so that is basically 5 weeks plus a day or so to account for the weekend. Decision was made on a Friday, deadline is a Monday.
What happens on March 26th if there's still no payment or bond?
New York will seize his properties in New York.
I would love it if NY seized his properties and turned them all into low-income housing.
Not that there’s anything wrong with low-income housing. It would just kill Trump to see his 🖐️ tremendous 👌 properties being inhabited by poors.
This is the best use of hand emojis I have ever seen. Outstanding!
I would love it too but my only concern is that they might legally still have to keep the trump name and the morons who vote for him would think Trump I's doing that out of the goodness of his heart. I've read in the sale of some of his older properties they've had to keep the name and are currently trying to sue to change it.
Something fun I hope
The 26th is my B-day, so I'm wishing I get to see his shit seized that day.
I'll believe he's suffered consequences when I see his kids stuffing him down an open grave.
If he dies before facing consequences, the world will still be a worse place, because he’ll have shown all the other sociopaths how to get away with it.
Would the world really be a worse place if sociopaths started dying so they could escape consequences?
In this case, yes. These cases have the potential to set precedents that would pave the way for future charges if someone else decides to copy him. This is what should have happened with Nixon.
He’s showing all the other assholes how to avoid getting in any meaningful trouble is bad for all of us, yes, even after the scumbag is gone. That’s why he needs to be held accountable for the insurrection and vote manipulation. So the next asshole doesn’t try it
Everyone knows already how to get away with it.
Be rich...
As opposed to continuing to live with no consequences other than forced to attend the occasional courtroom hearing? You or I would have been jailed instantly and forever for leading an insurrection against the United States. Everyone can see there are zero consequences.
Yeah that was my point. Him dying doesn’t have anything to do with consequences (other than having a shitty lifestyle, and forgetting to take his statins).
I believe there is a little leeway in there to allow for an appeal? He’s getting charged interest though, so it’s not like he’s off the hook.
The bond is needed before you can appeal. It's like an escrow.
Yes absolutely, but the bond isn’t required immediately after the initial judgment, you have some time after the judgment to provide the bond (before making the appeal of course.)
Yes, that would be the ~5 weeks he's gotten between the judgement on Feb 16 and the due date of March 25.
That was my point. >.>
There is likely a deadline like 90 days or 180 days or something to allow someone to pull together the finances to pay such a judgement. In New York you must post the bond before appealing so it isn't leeway for an appeal which could take way longer.
I meant pretty much what you are saying. He doesn’t have to pay (post bond) yet because he can still appeal. He has to pay (post bond) before he can appeal, and there is a period of time between the end of the initial case, and the time within which he can start an appeal.
