BREAKING: Judge rules against payment delay; Stormy Daniels returns; Donald “spiraling” according to a former aide. The hits keep coming as Donald’s Super Tuesday victory is already undermined by other mounting losses.
The full list is a gift to my paid supporting subscribers, who make this work possible. THANK YOU.👇
1. Donald sends a message to the court that he can’t pay the penalty in his defamation trial
Donald only has four days to pay the full $83 million he owes E. Jean Carroll, or put up a $91 million cash bond to appeal the decision.
In an emergency letter, Donald’s two attorneys, Alina Habba and John Sauer, all but begged Judge Lewis Kaplan to give Donald more time to produce what he owes.
It’s a bit much for Donald to be asking for mercy when he has never shown any, but the real story here is the implication that he can’t pay a mere fraction of his alleged net worth. After all, what’s $83 million to a billionaire?
Apparently, it’s potentially ruinous. And yet there’s more – much more.
2. Donald has only 18 days to come up with the $464 million penalty from the New York fraud case – and he has already signaled he can’t afford it
Exactly what kind of financial crunch is Donald facing?
Not only does he have fewer than three weeks to put up every single penny he owes in his New York business fraud case, but Attorney General Letitia James has signaled her willingness to seize his assets in order to satisfy the judgment.
Here’s a list of the interest he owes, in addition to the $355 million penalty:
Pre-judgment interest: Donald owes an additional $100 million in pre-judgment interest, starting back to the date of each transaction that was found to have been fraudulent.
Post-judgment interest: Donald also owes a 2% post-judgment interest rate on the entire fine. This interest began to accrue on February 23, 2024, the date the ruling was issued.
This means Donald is accruing approximately $87,502 in interest every single day until he coughs up the full total – a staggering $2.6 million in interest every month until he settles the fine.
With over half a billion dollars owed by the end of the month, it isn’t a stretch to see how Donald could find himself being forced to sell off his real-estate at fire-sale prices sooner rather than later.
3. Stormy Daniels returns… with new information
In a new documentary premiering on Peacock on March 18, adult film actor Stormy Daniels reveals a new critical and disturbing detail about her alleged 2006 sexual encounter with Donald, one that many women voters will surely relate to:
