This is the best summary I could come up with:


New York Attorney General Letitia James could soon start seizing some of Donald Trump's properties if the former president cannot come up with a $464 million bond in his civil fraud case.

On Monday, Trump's lawyers filed a document in court saying they are unable to secure the bond amount, which has increased from $454 million because of interest, in the civil fraud case brought by James.

Last month, Trump was ordered by Judge Arthur Engoron to pay the fine in a judgment that said he inflated the value of his assets and properties on financial statements to banks and insurers while trying to get loans and make deals.

Newsweek reviewed a document from the attorney general's office that lists properties owned by Trump that had "fraudulent" and "misleading" values and could end up seized:

In a post to his Truth Social account this week, Trump criticized the judgment handed down by Engoron and said he may have to sell some of his properties to come up with the bond amount.

"Judge Engoron actually wants me to put up Hundreds of Millions of Dollars for the Right to Appeal his ridiculous decision.


The original article contains 374 words, the summary contains 192 words. Saved 49%. I'm a bot and I'm open source!

Highly unlikely but if everything happens before the election can he just get the properties back if he gets elected again?

Hopefully it happens before Trump can cash in on his Truth Social deal

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!
