The Eighth Amendment prohibits cruel and unusual punishments, but also mentions “excessive fines” and bail. The “excessive fines” clause surfaces (among other places) in cases of civil and criminal forfeiture. [TEXT and SOURCE]
In New York state, Attorney General Letitia James, in coordination with New York Judge Arthur Engoron, are seeking to continue the targeting of President Donald Trump with a series of financial judgements, penalties and control mechanisms intended to isolate the leading 2024 Republican presidential candidate from his wealth.
As if something akin to the John Galt character in Atlas Shrugged was coming to life, no American individual has ever faced this level of intentional weaponization of power. If the state appellate court does not intervene, I predict a federal judge will have to get involved. The reason is simple; the State of New York is clearly violating the 8th Amendment, and despite the compromised judiciary, the scale of overreach is even beyond the ability of the pretending judicial system to overlook it.
Perhaps, oddly, despite my intense anger toward these creatures of corruption, I fear not for the final outcome. I fully accept that a righteous and loving God has favor upon Mr. Trump, and there is a protection around him. It is a feeling, a sense about things, that is difficult to explain beyond, “No weapon formed against you shall prosper.”
NEW YORK – The New York attorney general’s office has filed judgments in Westchester County, the first indication that the state is preparing to try to seize Donald Trump’s golf course and private estate north of Manhattan, known as Seven Springs.
State lawyers entered the judgments with the clerk’s office in Westchester County on March 6, just one week after Judge Arthur Engoron made official his $464 million decision against Trump, his sons Donald Trump Jr. and Eric Trump, and the Trump Organization.
[…] Trump now has four days to satisfy the judgment or sway an appeals court to allow him to post a smaller amount or defer posting the payment until after the appeal.
[…] The attorney general’s office on Wednesday said that it’s common for large companies to post billion-dollar bonds and suggested Trump should have posted real estate with the court.
“The suggestion is both impractical and unjust. The Attorney General cites no New York case law to support this contention. In any event, from the perspective of risk, the Attorney General’s proposal of a ‘court-appointed officer’ to ‘hold real estate’ is functionally equivalent to what Supreme Court has already imposed through the requirement of a court-appointed monitor to oversee Defendants’ business operations,” Trump’s lawyers wrote.
[…] “By demanding an undertaking in the full amount of the judgment in order to appeal, the Attorney General and Supreme Court have sought to impose a patently unreasonable, unjust, and unconstitutional (under both the Federal and New York State Constitutions) bond condition,” they wrote.
[…] Thursday, Engoron expanded the role of the monitor overseeing the Trump Organization to include more expansive oversight of Trump’s real estate business’ internal financial practices.
[…] “The Trump Organization shall inform the monitor, in advance, of any efforts to secure surety bonds, including any financial disclosures requested or required, any information provided in response to such requests, any representations made by Trump Organization in connection with securing such bonds any personal guarantees made by any of the defendants, and any obligations of the Trump Organization required by the surety,” the judge ordered.
Engoron laid out a timeline of certain steps the Trumps must take within the next month, including providing the monitor, retired Judge Barbara Jones, with full access to its day-to-day financial operations. (more)
Keep in mind, the original civil charge against President Trump revolves around inverting a state statute intended to protect the consumer from predatory lending. To construct her case, AG James had to reverse the statute and make President Trump a predatory borrower, despite the lenders saying they had no issue with the paperwork used by President Trump to secure reconciled bank loans.
All the banks and lenders did their own due diligence on the financing in question. All operational loans and business loans were paid back. There were no defaults or banking interests adversely impacted. There are no victims of what the State calls “fraud,” yet activist judge Engoron ruled against Donald Trump and triggered a fine of nearly half a billion dollars.
Additionally, New York Attorney General Latisha James campaigned for office with promises to target the Trump Organization and Donald Trump himself. This is transparent and malicious Lawfare in the extreme, and every member of the legal profession, sans ideological leftists/communists, calls it exactly that.

Where is it safe to donate to President Trump? I’ve read terrible things about anything that has to do with WinRed!
The reason you’ve read terrible things about WinRed is because operatives endlessly tell everybody they’ve heard terrible things about WinRed. It’s just a credit card processor for goodness sake.
DonaldJTrump.com
For the inevitable demand for a way to avoid the supposedly dreaded WinRed, at the risk of trusting the USPS, one can mail a donation to the address found on this form from his website, one must include the completed form:
https://cdn.donaldjtrump.com/djtweb24/general/TSA_JFC_Contributor_Form_230217.pdf
Thank you!
Winred is a text spamming bunch of idiots. I wouldn’t give them money for anything.
Worse than that, they’re CRIMINALS. Got sued by defrauded donors, had to pay $22 million in settlement.
No, it’s not. It’s privately owned by big RNC MAGA-hating establishment donors and power movers in the RNC. At least ActBlue had the decency to form as a non-profit… Not Winred.
That 4% commission, backed up with coercive and threatening tactics toward candidates, made it a shady deal from Day One. And all that multi-millions in profit went right into their pockets.
In addition, they defaulted on donation platform contracts with firms that had created specialized GOP platforms, AND THREATENED ANY GOP CANDIDATE THAT USED ANY OTHER PROGRAM WITH DENIAL OF FUNDS.
Dirty, filthy, establishment tactics. Scum.
More than that, TPTB decided to slide in a 4-point “opt out” clause on small donations to automatically revert to monthly auto-donate, which charged monthly on donations meant to be one-time.
Donors sued, won, and greedy Winred had to rebate almost $22 MILLION back to them. Lucky the president of WR didn’t go to prison.
And after that, they blamed it all on the Trump campaign, which had nothing to do with it.
So… Get informed before you let your trap flap!
How Hissy.
Every credit card processor charges a percent.
Winred is simply a processor, like when you use a credit card. You can safely donate to President Donald J. Trump via his website at donaldjtrump.com
If you want to send a check there is a form on the site that has to be filled out per FEC rules.
Don’t forget, RNC now has Lara Trump so there will be NO shenanigans. In addition, until President Trump is the official nominee there is no splitting of the donations.
I have been using WinRed for some time, to donate to PDJT, Kari Lake, Cara Castronuevo.
The ONLY time I had any problem, was when (my BAD!) I neglected to UN-check the “make this a recurring, monthly donation” box.
Under Ronnas mismanagement you pretty much had to cancel that credit card, cause trying to get it stopped otherwise was impossible.
Anyway, point is slow down, READ everything over, before you click the final commitment.
And, thats true with any internet transaction.
Well, that happened to me more than once and I know about unchecking the monthly donation box. So sorry will not deal withe them again.
You are absolutely right, Dutch. I made that very same mistake and ended up having to cancel my card and have it re-issued. So now when I donate, I only choose the “donate” button once and then go thru and “decline” all other offers on the site, and there are about 10 to 15 offers so it takes some time.
That little “oversight” cost WR $22M in settlement for fraud. FRAUD.
Dutch, question, is it better to donate to Winred or directly to President Trump himself? Is there a difference?
Thanks in advance
I’ve been donating to President Trump’s website and Winred processes my donation via credit card. I have never had a problem. I did all through 2016 and again 2019 and 2020 and now throughout this election cycle.
I’m using http://www.right.us. They’ve been doing honest work with candidates from the start.
I’ve donated with confidence via WinRed.
Win Red handles donations made to President Trump’s website. Just make sure if you donate through an email that the email is actually from President Trump. I’ve gotten several emails claiming to be from President Trump and when you look at the email address, they are not from President Trump. Make sure the email address is from DonaldJTrump.com and you should be ok.
oh please
asked and answered a hundred times
I’ve had bad experiences with WinRed. I have bl ocked them with my bank. I would like to donate to PTrump but not with WinRed.
That’s what this form on his website is for:
https://cdn.donaldjtrump.com/djtweb24/general/TSA_JFC_Contributor_Form_230217.pdf
It’s is an enormous disgrace that a person like James is allowed to be AG. She campaigned on “getting Trump” because he’s “too male and too pale”. Beside the malicious targeting of a person there is her outrageous prejudice. Suppose someone campaigned on “getting” someone because they were “too black and to gay”? Hmm? This moral degenerate has no business being an AG. She’s a disgrace to the legal profession and the entire country.
It’s a sad statement that she was voted into office on that campaign…one wonders if 100% of ballots were actually factual vs fsbricated.
Simple answer –
no she was not elected by the people. The votes were counted by demoncrats using election machines that can be programmed to select the winner of each race.
Prosecutors have campaigned on ‘going after’ CATEGORIES of crime, not sure one has ever campaigned on going after an INDIVIDUAL like this, who’s not a criminal, before.
Trump said he had the money this morning on Truth Social. What has happened since then.
He has 500+ million in cash on hand. But if he posts that as bond, he has little left to campaign with over the next months whiles the appeals process proceeds.
Which is precisely what the lawfare bound left intended in the first place. Classic election interference.
You know, that’s okay because people everywhere will donate because of this.
Leticia James is classic erection interference.
I have some not so good thoughts about both Leticia and Fawni, but I also have the same feeling that Sundance expressed about President Trump. I have read the same words from other writer’s as well. Just have that, for lack of better words, the spidey sense that there is a lot more going on in the Universe that our eyes can see.
Am also trying to figure out why these two black women chose to take on these “cases.” What kind of message are they sending to other black women who aspiring to join the “legal profession?” It certainly isn’t a good one. Go after the powerful white man, no matter how much you have to lie and warp the meaning of the law? Sure
seemsis what is going with myself. And with this, I also do not believe I am alone.These two need to go into a gladiator arena together and publicly whip each others buts for the prize of being the biggest fool. Coming soon, but definitely NOT! to the next SNL skit.
In Nueva York our elections are completely corrupted. We have millions of phantom voters who reside in parking lots or UPS stores.
Don’t forget the corrupt “public servants” that think they are your ruler.
Now Trump knows what Jeremiah experienced:
Terror on every side!
Denounce! let us denounce him!”
All those who were my friends
are on the watch for any misstep of mine.
“Perhaps he will be trapped; then we can prevail,
and take our vengeance on him.”
But the LORD is with me, like a mighty champion:
my persecutors will stumble, they will not triumph.” Jer. 20: 10
New York State and the Fascist Dolts running the show, including the inept, corrupt judiciary will end up eating their own as they attempt to “save face” and recover from this Lawfare movie we are forced to watch.
They are so obtuse to believe that this is only about President Trump and destroying his chances for running and winning the Presidential Election in 2024, they are ignoring the obvious result and that is New York State and it’s worldwide role as a significant financial and business market leader is O.V.E.R.
If they can do this to President Trump, the same can be done to anyone living in or doing business in or with anyone in New York State.
New York State is finished! It is now a 3rd World $*&#hole and the Illegals will takeover the housing and emptied out business structures, because there will continue to be a mass exodus from New York State.
Sit back and watch it happen in real time.
This is complete self-destruction based on Hatred.
Fully intended outcome.
Besides, so long as the investers is “woke” they have nothing to fear.
Until they are the least “woke” on the list. Then they’re next on the list.
I wouldn’t go that far. Some people remember. Some took an oath to defend the constitution.
Hatred is a Self-Consuming Emotion/Motion. When the War is upon you, Best to have a Cold Fury, Nothing but getting the job done as is Your Right to Self Defense and Survival of Your Posterity.
Hopefully, because this iteration of the USA is Done, perhaps something useful comes from after the war. If each of Us were Pre-pared for such a struggle, it might cause such a future to swerve, or for Us as individuals to have created an undefeatable resistance base of citizenery.
I saw on the bottom scrolls on Newsmax that 50% of NY residents plan to leave NY in the next 5 years. I don’t know if they mean the city or the state.
California, too.
But ultimately we are being corralled. At some point we are going to have to stand up and fight.
I mean, even in larger and larger groups proclaiming, “Hell, no, I won’t comply!”
If enough REAL Americans do not stand up and fight, it will not happen. So far, there are not enough of us willing to do just that.
I doubt as many as 50% can financially afford to leave NYS (same for Californians). There are too many Leftists in power who overtake and stifle the wants and will of the less financially stable Real Americans.
I am looking forward to the State of NY imploding. Sooner rather than later. Let it be known that NYS has become an impoverished state, like Haiti, operating only by trying to keep the gangs at bay, with no financial clout any longer.
And US Federal Tax Dollars.
The commercial property market in NYC is already in a tailspin. This only exacerbates the problem and accelerates its demise.
Engeron and James are going down in the history books …just not in the way they thought.
Karma is a bitch.
To destroy New York is the hope of the evildoers. Snort. I think the 9/11 message was pretty loud and clear. But the dream to destroy New York this time it is not yet realized.
I pray it never is. I have two different families that I love and cherish, all who live in and LOVE NEW YORK. But they have their getaways. Not many others do,
I think it is a Leonard Cohen song, “First We Take Manhattan, and then we take Berlin.” I have no clue what the “mentality”that makes anyone believe for a second they will succeed in destroying New York, let alone USA.
Trump as usual is being underestimated, as well the rest of us. Not all of us have been wearing blinders and can see this whole shit show.
Yep, there’s a Godly protection around our President that’s been there from the very beginning. Just a sense that all God’s people are aware of.
President Trump is the most respected and beloved man on the planet! The evil ones are shrinking before our eyes and seem to be the only ones as yet unaware 😉
🙏🇺🇲♥️🦁👑
“President Trump is the most respected and beloved man on the planet!” NOT true. There are still too many Americans who do not like PDJT. I see it every day in friends, family, and colleagues. One, a family member, recently called him a “rapist” because of the E J Carroll show-trial….. there are still TOO many who do not “like” PDJT.
I stand up to correct them but the Left has done some permanent damage.
It is in the *interest* of EVERY business (wo)man to stand behind DJT. This will leave doors wide open should they get away with this clown show.
It is a feeling, a sense about things, that is difficult to explain beyond, “No weapon formed against you shall prosper.”
I agree SD. Have had this sort of feeling for some time and like you say, it’s hard to describe. What I do know and believe wholeheartedly is it’s the Holy Spirit who has provided me this sense of calm and assurance I feel.
I stepped back and I have a calm resolve. My determination with, for and to stand behind is unwavering. I am trying not to get off into discussions with anyone that wants to argue petty details or make excuses.
He helps us with our messaging as we attempt to form our prayers. 🙏
May the Holy Spirit help me clarify and direct my prayers!🙏
These people will kill from folks having high blood pressure with all the crap they are doing. Cold Anger comes to mind.
There is a book that is coming out in late June of this year by Jack Posobiec of Human Events and formerly OAN, called Unhuman!!! It focuses on the leftist, Marxist, Communist movements and how they develop!!! I was fortunate to get an advanced copy of the text and in the book it describes exactly the means you see being used by James, Willis in Georgia, Jack Smith and Fat Alvin in Manhattan with the lawfare!!! In the book it emphasizes threatening the use of RECEPROCITY against these Marxist/Leftists so that in these cases the Trump 47 DOJ and especially the IRS be turned loose on these people with a vengeance in essence saying we will hit you back with twice the force and fury and try to punish you even more than you tried to punish us!!! Words to think about! 🤔
It needs to be renamed the IRIS (Illegal Revenue Investigation Service).
It needs to be shut down.
Period.
It was sold to the American public in 1913 as a 0.1% income tax on only the top 1%. Look at me now!
They overturned Roe, they can overturn the income tax.
May your words prove you a Prophet, Joe.
This is a classic hero story. DJT is superhuman, overcoming the evil Globalist Totalitarian regime. I am honored to be a witness.
He’s a man with a proven track record and a charismatic character. This is much bigger than just President Trump. This is a globalist attempt to take down the west.
FYI (not asking or suggesting to donate) — DJT has a donation page @GiveSendGo.com.
(NOT the go fund me site)
I don’t believe President Trump put up a donation page on any crowdfunding site.
Perhaps you meant that some other person started a fundraiser? Do you know their name, who they are, what org they represent?
FYI if you want to help with lawyer fees, donate directly to President Trump’s Save America PAC. Go to DonaldJTrump.com –you have the option to donate to just the PAC, just the campaign or a combo. The PAC is legally allowed to pay some of President Trump’s lawyer fees.
Hope everyone is not too trusting of unknown people putting up crowdfunding pages for President Trump. They may be well-meaning or they may be fraudsters or even operatives hoping to siphon donations away from President Trump.
A legal way to help with lawyer fees is to donate to President Trump’s Save America PAC (go to DonaldJTrump.com) Or you could donate to the campaign, or both at DonaldJTrump.com
it was started by Kevin leary’s wife. Not sure of their politics but they saw the wrong done to Trump and decided to do this and to back out of all deals they had started in NY. Leary (or is it o’Leary) is on Shark Tank and also a real estate mongol. The gofundme she started had over 1.3 million the last I looked. Not sure if there is a givesendgo or not.
The only GoFundMe I’m aware of that’s raised that amount was not started by Kevin Leary’s wife. Do you have the link?
The organizer of the GFM page I’m aware of is an individual, Elena Cardone out of Aventura, FL. The funds seem to go to her personally rather than an escrow account.
There is an Elena Cardone of Aventura FL married to Grant Cardone a financial influencer whose firm has faced controversy and a string of lawsuits by former clients over claimed unethical practices. I don’t know the status of the suits and I can’t say if the lawsuits have any validity.
The deadline is Monday for the bond.
Why have the GoFundMe funds not been given to President Trump?
Cardone’s GFM page says only that her lawyers are working to make sure that the amount raised is utilized appropriately. Huh?
Never considered myself as prescient.
I know what I know and I know by whom I know it.
That said, I did state yesterday that Donald J Trump will literally own the State of NY.
No coincidence that the talking heads at CNN have been suggesting that DJT could get $100M in a firesale of MiraLago, the underlying asset this fraudulent case is predicated on, as being ‘overvalued’ at $18M.
Trust God. Fear not.
President Trump said this morning that he has the whole amount of money in cash and that he will need the american people now more than ever because of what these crooked slimy people have done to him, I am proud to say that I have made several donations this week and there is nothing to be afraid of win red, If you watch when you make the donation and do not click on the monthly button and just do a one time donation you will be fine.
Stop listening to people who are trying hard to stop donations going to President Trump and the Mega people who are
trying to become congressman or Senators so please just watch what you do when you make the donation and you will be fine. and oh yes, Where it ask if you would like to give Win Red a tip just decline and go on and finish.
I am surprised that no one is talking about his post this morning and his True Social has gone to the stock market but he cant sell his shares for 6 month so he will need help to get him threw the campaign
Dirty Biden and Obama needs to be hung out to dry by getting both of them out of Washington
may god bless President Trump and his family and may he now get rid of the james and judge and be free of all the people who just continue to harm him.
“And I will strike down upon those who attempt to poison and destroy my brothers with great vengeance and furious anger….”
Sorry…couldn’t resist….
Oopsies….intended for jello
that was one of the nicest, most sincere entreaties i’ve seen in a long time, RB.
the construction of this trap to put PDJT in a real financial squeeze is truly sinister.
obviously, “tish” didn’t come up with it herself.
PT may not be out of funds, but he’s short of funds he can use NOW.
the moves against his properties are more evidence that they intend to break him financially and mentally.
i think donations now are truly critical.
I love me some President –pro God and country- Donald John Trump!
My the armor glow around you and surround you!!
🙏♥️
He has the money. HE wants to hold onto it.
Can you blame him? After all that has happened against him, I am quite sure he knows how hard it would be to ever get it returned to him once NYC officials get their mitts on it even when this lawsuit is overturned! Will be much easier for a Bond Co. to handle.
Nice to see someone here besides Sundane who’s actually done their homework.
I have intense anger AND hatred for these creatures… same goes for all of them, as they try to destroy Trump, his supporters, and the whole country… whole WORLD. I’m not ashamed to say I HATE them. Not sure what God thinks about that, but I’m sure he’ll understand where we’re coming from.
Here’s my prediction on the James/Engeron case: An appeals court (NY or Fed) will step in to put this on hold. Maybe say a much smaller bond has to be posted so that the appeal for the whole case can move forward. But if, on the slim chance no court stops this in time, I have a sneaking suspicion that one or more of Trump’s friends (filthy rich friends obviously) have their finger on the trigger and will, at the last minute, post the full bond. And I don’t even mind if they brag about it, as long as there are no strings attached (which of course isn’t something Trump would accept).
No one who got to be a billionaire is going to post a cash bond for half a billion for Trump in a case where rabid politics are the heart and core of the matter. He/she would immediately become the #2 target for the leftist lawfare ops and everything in their life and finances would be in dire jeopardy. Not going to happen.
Waiting for a court to find 8th Amendment violation, should occur, oh say, 2028?
I note that James is now suing the beef industry, so I ask why is meat still being delivered into that state?
It’s Judicial ANARCHY, and ANARCHY of any kind in a society that prides itself on being ‘law and order’ based is a VERY. BAD. THING.
These abuses cannot be tolerated and not allowed to stand.
….anarchy is the goal of the left
CLOWARD PIVEN STRATEGY –
” The Cloward-Piven Theory is a strategy devised in the 1960s to successfully provide welfare and attempt to solve political problems. The main steps of this strategy are to:
Overload a system
Create mass panic and hysteria as the system is overloaded
Oversee the destruction of the system
Replace the former system with a new system ”
https://study.com/academy/lesson/the-cloward-piven-strategy.html
And a little message to Engeron and James: When your life starts falling apart, when everything you’ve ever loved and cared about is disappearing from your life, when your health starts to go down the tubes… do NOT expect one single person to feel sorry for you. Nobody will be there to help you. Enjoy!
I’m praying it down on them now. Also, my precious pastor was gunned down in our church by 2 illegals, on their 3rd church robbery of the day, after 100’s in the Bay Area.
Almost caused his wife to miscarry, cost the taxpayers $10M to try and incarcerate them.
So, my prayer is that all these bad guys who supported this lawlessness will have these same horrors visited upon their loved ones.
You reap what you sow.

“18 U.S.C. § 242
This provision makes it a crime for someone acting under color of law to willfully deprive a person of a right or privilege protected by the Constitution or laws of the United States. It is not necessary that the offense be motivated by racial bias or by any other animus.” acts under 18 U.S.C. § 242 “color of law” include acts not only done by federal, state, or local officials within their lawful authority, but also acts done beyond the bounds of that official’s lawful authority, if the acts are done while the official is purporting to or pretending to act in the performance of his/her official duties. Persons acting under color of law within the meaning of this statute include police officers, prisons guards and other law enforcement officials, as well as judges, care providers in public health facilities, and others who are acting as public officials.
Persecution under color of law.
All that wonderful system requires moral humans executing its fine prose. That’s lacking these days. I believe one of the Founders mentioned morality being a key component of governance, and part of governance is equal justice for all.
Perhaps we can return to that some day. IMO it’ll take a lot of struggle to get there. The enemy is pretty formidable.
As if this will matter. The federal judiciary is infested with socialists and uniparty hacks who are smiling behind their hands at the trials and tribulations of PDJT.
Given the current state of affairs in the country, I don’t even see PDJT getting a fair shake from SCOTUS.
It sure does seem that PDJT has been encased in armor.
Engoron has a very long and checkered history of being specifically antagonistic toward “real estate developers.” And, his many judgments against them have all been systematically overturned.
But, this one old man is clinging to the same “TDS dream”: “I(!) am going down in history as the first one to ‘Get Trump.™'”
Unfortunately, the entirety of the real-estate business, both in the City and in the entire State of New York, can see it clearly: “You will be next!” We will seize your properties, of course immediately sell them off to your competitors, and pocket the proceeds. (“Unless you … $$$ $$$ 💰 💰 💰.” But, I digress.)
Nope. “This ain’t gonna fly.”
But but…but…the Governess herself said y’all don’t worry about that…this is Trump specific….
Yes, specific to Trump! Sounds like such a fair and impartial prosecutor.
She sure has gone on record with statements that show her to be guilty of malicious prosecution, but evidently she’s very sure there is no way she herself can be convicted of anything.
To lawyers out there, CAN charges be brought against her? In what jurisdiction? As AG wouldn’t that be ALbany?
and that is precisely the problem.
Sounds like a lawfare shakedown/extortion racket. It’s a con job.
“If a city provides complete and exclusive protection for one or more favored con mobs, it is known as “airtight.”
–The Big Con (1940)
And the SCROTUS remains dead silent.
…..the compromat shriveled SCROTUS?….
Retired Magistrate here: The United States Supreme Court cannot intervene in a case until someone brings the case before them. Ultimately, this case probably will end up before the Supreme Court by President Trump’s attorneys filing an appeal with the New York State Court of Appeals. If that is not successful, then President Trump’s attorneys will ask the United States Supreme Court to take the case. The Supreme Court can grant certiorari (four Justices have to agree to take the case) or not.
Ultimately, the citizens in this country will lose all respect and trust in its judicial system. PDJT will lose his property and by the time the SCROTUS gets around to doing anything it will be moot. The SCROTUS is fiddling while the Republic burns. How nice though that they are playing by the rules.
Someone on that court needs to think outside the box.
THEY ARE ALL ” Leveraged “
SCOTUS has no way of inserting itself into a state legal issue unless and until a US constitutional matter is raised in a federal court as a result. So far, no one has done that. They will, but the timeline doesn’t favor Trump. By the time it gets to SCOTUS for review, Trump would be bankrupt and in jail. He has to win now in NY state courts.
Note that Trump posting almost all of his available cash on hand to make bond in this case would seriously affect his ability to afford his defences in the other cases. Lawfare at its most evil.
Gotta think outside the box, old SCROTUS does. DoJ certainly is. FBI and IRS, too. SCROTUS = The operation was a success but the patient died.
It has to go through the NY state system first.
Re: Perhaps, oddly, despite my intense anger toward these creatures of corruption, I fear not for the final outcome. I fully accept that a righteous and loving God has favor upon Mr. Trump, and there is a protection around him. It is a feeling, a sense about things, that is difficult to explain beyond, “No weapon formed against you shall prosper.”
Amen, brother! I have felt the same way since the first attack against Trump. As I have said before, I fully believe God created America so Christians would have a place to worship Him freely; and, I don’t think He’s ready to give up on us yet.
what happened to the truckers not delivering stuff to NY? Again all talk, no actions. Nobody ever stands up for anything. All this will continue until there are consequences for these liberal Marxist people
The leader was threatened.
Like a crazed, unhinged addict, Lawfare will not stop it’s compulsion unless and until it is stopped for them.
It DOES seem like a drug to them….
If you wish to understand the deed…understand the payoff….there is a reason the law fare types always seem to be smirking
Serial killer 101….
….understand the reward….
Some are bribed. Some are blackmailed. A distinction without a differenece.
I don’t know who all is involved and who gets exactly what percentage of the money when we donate to any of the sites that take donations for President Trump.
I do know that by using most of those sites your information is “kept,” but no more so than when you use your credit card for buying anything off the internet or at your local gas station.
Still, due to endless lawfare on top of targeting individuals via their credit card use (J6 & Trucker’s Strike in Canada), I have an idea that I hope takes off and helps President Trump.
Everyone has a birthday, most people celebrate other people’s birthday by giving gifts, and, at this point in time, it is not yet illegal to give birthday presents.
My idea?
Send President Trump a birthday card.
Mail it to —
President Donald J. Trump
c/o Mar-A-Lago
110 S. Ocean Blvd.
Palm Beach, Florida 33480
And, as we do with most birthday cards we send to loved ones, include a check stating “Happy Birthday!” Or in President Trump’s case, it would be “Happy early Birthday!”
I’ve sent cash to the Accounts Payable department – who knows, maybe for a down payment on a room, venue, or to cover my bill? Or, whatever and I just want to be a good tipper.
Certain requirements must be met for donations over a certain amount per person per election.
I believe if it’s under $50 it’s okay, but I don’t know certain.
But over or under no one sending it to Mar-A-Lago is actually helping PDJT, they are making more work and exposing him to more FEC hazards.
Why can’t people just send a check to the address he has provided, on this form that must accompany such donations?

These checks will not be political contributions, Maquis.
These checks will not be donations.
These checks will be gifts — birthday presents — to a great patriot.
You don’t need any paperwork to do that.
The FEC has other thoughts on the matter.
Had PDJT at any time suggested what you are endorsing I’d see it differently.
I was discussing the 8th Amendment and Due Process Rights for President Trump with some lawyer friends at the gym …. hopefully his legal team has started the process to get through the NY Supreme Court because the Chief Justice Roberts lead Court will “stick to legal proprieties” and WILL never see the case until President Trump exhausts ALL remedies in the NY State Legal System.
NOTE: the NY Federal Courts are part of the 2nd District …. supervised by the “Wise Latina” Sotomayor
And I don’t trust her “intellect”.
Both the AG and the judge in NYC can be prosecuted for willfully violating President Trump’s rights under the 8th Amendment by calling for and rendering an excessive fine that is forbidden by the 8th Amendment. The fact that they took a state statute intended to protect the consumer from predatory lending and reversed the statute to make President Trump a predatory borrower is evidence of their willful act. As is the AG stating she will get Trump during her election campaign.
Section 242 of Title 18 makes it a crime for a person acting under color of any law to willfully deprive a person of a right or privilege protected by the Constitution or laws of the United States.
The question now is who can and will bring that criminal charge against them? It’s not a civil charge, so President Trump cannot bring it.
Since this would be a Federal criminal case, it seems to me that if Jack Smith can empanel a grand jury in DC for a case in Florida, that a US Attorney in Florida can empanel one in Florida for a case in NYC. They set the precedent.
Isaiah 45… Trump is a Cyrus Ruler, according to Lance Wallnau…
{ https://lancewallnau.com/the-era-of-cyrus-rulers/ }
“… In October 2016, Wallnau released the bestselling book {“God’s Chaos Candidate” } in which he argued that Trump would be a “wrecking ball” to political correctness as well as a protector and a promoter of Christians, much like the ancient Persian King Cyrus was to the Jews.
…
Wallnau sees Trump, like Cyrus, as someone who was not among God’s people when called by the Almighty (“you do not know me”) to fulfill a major leadership role but was surprisingly friendly and faithful to them in his governance.
“And the parallel for me was this is the most significant Old Testament character who was not a Jew, who God used with more impact for the Jews than any other Jew,” Wallnau said.
He told the hundreds of attendees at his Phoenix (AZ) event he did not see Trump at first as God’s candidate when he met with him at the Trump Tower in August 2015, along with a small group of other Christian leaders….”

Apologies… Because I don’t have FB I have to tell you how to find this inspiring talk I’ve referenced…
about half way down in the article linked immediately above appears the video (facebook platform) – advance about halfway through it to find Lance Wallnau’s appearance; well worth the ~hour to hear his ‘Trump is a Cyrus Ruler’ explanation.
This was another synchronicity for me. Trump spoke here that afternoon & I didn’t find out about it in time to get in – my friend was there and said it was electric, I watched the livestream; Lance was with him, also Nigel Farage. That evening, Lance Wallnau spoke at this local church – he has encouraging insight into Trump’s 2nd term
(not the specific timeline, our desired time is not always congruent with God’s Time; this was in the 2020 campaign).
I found this talk the next morning, I hadn’t been to that church’s website ever before, I was just guided to find it.
Both Lance Wallnau and Kim Clement prophesied Trump is a 2 term POTUS and will be Victorious in overcoming the usurpers.
Here’s a different shorter talk with many of the same references about Trump – without having to go through facebook

I’m pretty sure this is the 2nd part of the shorter talk… very powerful, uplifting & inspiring…

I read here:
https://www.theepochtimes.com/us/trump-says-he-has-500-million-cash-enough-for-massive-bond-5612761?src_src=rtnewsnoe&src_cmp=rtbreaking-2024-03-22-2&est=AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAZPQuZxwbzM3EzKMcsXFWBbl7wk9AJCYDFIV5DHm7lGyzteFRedhzWA%3D%3D
that Trump wrote: “through hard work, talent, and luck, I currently have almost five hundred million dollars in cash.”
“President Trump posted that he had intended to use a “substantial amount” of his money in his presidential campaign, before blasting the judge and attorney general on the civil fraud case.”
Hopefully this will help.
I also read that the public listing of Truth Social will double his net worth.
Even though the above is true, it doesn’t change the fact that there is a terrible disease that has affected the minds and brains of certain Americans, i.e., Trump Derangement Syndrome.
The people with this disease are incapable of thinking for themselves. They can only repeat what they hear on NPR or read in the New York Times. They are parrots. They repeat the talking points put out for them to repeat. They are know nothings. And most of them are the elites of this country who went to good schools and got educated beyond college.
Fortunately they are a minority, in this country, and more and more of them are leaving the democrat party every day because of the ghoulish, destructive, and perverse policies that the democrat party supports.
Thank you Sundance for all your posts.
How much more does our President Trump have to put up with? This is beyond the point of human endurance.
I feel like I’m watching a present day Stations of the Cross as we come into Easter week.
Please let G-d have mercy on this man in his times of trouble. Protect him from the forces of Satan that have been loosed upon the earth.
Just going to add:
I rebuke you Satan, in the almighty name of Jesus! Get out of our country. Get away from the Lord’s people. Keep your stinking mitts off our President Trump.
Amen.
P.S. I realize it doesn’t need to be said… but all those folks who cravenly pursue Trump to destroy him are under demonic influence. Demons shall flee at the Name of Jesus. Speak His name, out loud, often, and rebuke Satan and his mnions.
Everything is in the Lord’s hands and timing. We will continue to pray for President Trump‘s situation and protection.
The guy being called a Judge is in fact a troll gargoyle not a Judge. A real judge would have never allowed the case to make it to a court room.
We know the only ones that see this as a victory are the left regressives and are mental retards, because you would have to be retarded to want to return to a past state of existence. No such thing as a progressive DemonRat/Rhinocrats. In the end they are losers as they always are and have been. They always lose and the reason humanity is still on this world.
Utterly disgusting and a HUGE waste of Trump’s time and money. Judge and prosecutor should be tried for malicious prosecution, sanctioned and disbarred.
I Am with you Sundance! There is a certain swagger coming from our Commander in Chief as though he k ows something that nobody else does…..but will! And he knows nothing will stop it from coming out because of Who is behind him!
Rico Charged…..Rico bites back. Biblical.
RICO, Swamp!
I mail checks to him.
That works!

“If the state appellate court does not intervene, I predict a federal judge will have to get involved. The reason is simple; the State of New York is clearly violating the 8th Amendment, and despite the compromised judiciary, the scale of overreach is even beyond the ability of the pretending judicial system to overlook it.”
Even Kevin McCarthy’s boyfriend recognizes that this is a very bad look for the Left…the Lawfare is now so over the top even the LoFo voters are starting to wake up to the fact that we no longer have a functioning justice system!
Early this week I pledged to give on monthly basis the legal limit one can donate to a candidate (Trump) – why, because Trump’s daughter in-law Lara asked me.
It’s time to fight back on on fronts!
Unlikely Ally Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg Could Save Trump $355M
Ginsburg delivered the high court’s opinion in Timbs v. Indiana on Feb. 20, 2019, in which she laid out how the Eighth Amendment’s prohibition on excessive fines applies to the states as well as the federal government.
In that case, Indiana police had seized Tyson Timbs’ Land Rover SUV, which he had purchased for $42,000 with money he received from a life insurance policy when his father died. After Timbs pleaded guilty to drug dealing and conspiracy to commit theft, he was fined $10,000 and the state sought civil forfeiture of the vehicle. The judge ruled that taking the vehicle was an excessive fine because it was worth four times the penalty and excessive fines are prohibited by the Constitution’s Eighth Amendment.
In a unanimous decision, the U.S. Supreme Court said that it does, in fact, bind the states as well.
“The Excessive Fines Clause traces its venerable lineage back to at least 1215,” Ginsburg wrote. “Magna Carta required that economic sanctions ‘be proportioned to the wrong’ and ‘not be so large as to deprive [an offender] of his livelihood.’”
Timbs v. Indiana was the first time the Supreme Court had determined that the Eighth Amendment’s excessive fines clause applied to the states.
In an opinion piece published recently in the Los Angeles Daily News, Susan Shelley outlined how the Supreme Court eventually found that the Bill of Rights applies to the federal and state levels and said Trump will be protected from the state of New York by that recognition.
Judge Arthur Engoron fined the former president a staggering $355 million plus $100 million in continually-accruing interest. He also banned the Trump Organization from applying for loans from financial institutions that do business in New York for three years and banned Trump from working as a director or officer of any company in New York for the same time period. Additionally, Trump’s request for a 30-day extension of the fine’s due date – which New York requires before he can appeal the judgment – was denied by Engoron.
Shelley points out that “[t]his was a civil fraud trial, without a jury, in which the judge found Trump guilty of giving his assets a too-high valuation to get good loan terms, even though the bank adjusted those values downward before approving a loan that was paid back fully and on time and with interest.”

Why not give NY all the RNC money. Look at the abomination they just passed. They are traitors as much as the Dems. Hit them in the pocketbook after they betrayed us all. Then he can do something else creative to suupport his favored candidates. A new fund with new ideas….MAGA.
May the mouths of the liars and the thieves be stopped up.
We are all witness to an American version of the Dark Ages. How long will it last is dependent on the reformation or destruction of the administrative state.
Engoron’s ‘Co-Judge’ Law Clerk, Allison Greenfield, Attended Anti-Trump Events Endorsing Biden & Tish James, Spurred on By Impeachment Leader Dan Goldman
By her own admission, Greenfield has acted as a “co-judge” in the New York case against Donald Trump – something highly inappropriate for an unelected member of court staff. Greenfield has gone so far as to refer to herself and the judge using the term ‘we‘ at a candidate forum. Greenfield, at the time, was seeking office as a judge on the Manhattan Civil Court.

Isn’t it about time for the MAGA folks, tens of millions of us, to get fired up over this and start the BIGGEST BADDEST fundraising bonanza to Trump the world has ever seen? Let’s get organized America and shove this right back in Letitia and Judge Engerons face! Let the lawfare clowns know they once again made a YUGE mistake! Trump has stood in the middle of the storm for 9 long years now, stood with the middle class of all colors and backgrounds against the worst assault any of us have ever witnessed. It is time to pay back!
Good choice of scripture Sundance; exactly correct. Ten months until Trump is seated in the White House again and God’s Justice uncovers the lies so Truth fills our Capitol and cities and minds deceived are delivered from evil.

“Perhaps, oddly, despite my intense anger toward these creatures of corruption, I fear not for the final outcome. I fully accept that a righteous and loving God has favor upon Mr. Trump, and there is a protection around him. It is a feeling, a sense about things, that is difficult to explain beyond, “No weapon formed against you shall prosper.”
Sundance, March 2024
put this one down on your generational calendar. You know the one. The one that you tell your children and your childrens’s children, when the opportunity comes up to demonstrate how GOD’S AMAZING GRACE happens in the lives of Millions (billions?). See, the power of prayer is supreme. You humble yourself before GOD and ask for his GRACE. Doesn’t mean it happens…but when it does. there is no denying that what you are experiencing is in fact the TRUTH REALIZED IN THE FLESH.
God Bless America
noting: these are solely my own personal beliefs. This is what sustains me. What makes it worth the fight. To know a truth, and depend on it, to ask for it and to be open to the reality that we human beings are held in HIS hand because of his perfect love…even when we fall…perhaps and especially because we fall. I also believe in a just God. That those who aim to deceive and harm others with immoral and self serving interests will be punished. They do not receive the quantum of GRACE. Their “victories” are hollow and short lived.
