An appeals court has slashed the absurdly political $454 million bond payment lodged against Donald Trump by crooked New York Attorney General Letitia James in the civil fraud trail.
The former president was facing a Sept. 23 deadline to pay the ridiculous amount, but an appeals court has slashed the penalty to $175 million. The court has given Trump another 10 days to pay the fee, according to Fox News.
Trump said he will pay the bond.
The appeals decision, though, now prevents James from seizing Trump's assets if the former president pays during this new ten-day period.
Trump continues his effort to appeal the judgment by corrupt New York Judge Arthur Engoron.
Per Fox News:
"Judge Engoron has refused to obey the decision of the Appellate Division relative to the Statute of Limitations. This is a confrontation between a Judge and those that rule above him - A very bad situation in which to place New York State and the Rule of Law! Engoron has disrespected the Appellate Division and its very clear and precise ruling," Trump posted on his Truth Social Monday. "He should be made to do so, and at the same time, release the GAG ORDER."
Trump said the appeals ruling Monday is "the 5th time in this case that he has been overturned, a record."
Trump blasted Judge Arthur Engoron, saying "his credibility, and that of Letitia James, has been shattered."
"We will abide by the decision of the Appellate Division, and post either a bond, equivalent securities, or cash," Trump said. "This also shows how ridiculous and outrageous Engoron’s original decision was at $450 Million."
It seems highly likely that this case will fall apart in an unbiased court.
