The American justice system has repeatedly broken my spirit over the last few weeks. This news is a welcome tonic. Age and race have nothing to do with it -- I know -- but as a 69-year-old Black woman, I'm experiencing a deep exhilarating joy watching a 70-something judge and a Black woman stay the course and succeed.

Just throw his ass in jail and let's get his name and picture off the front page. I'm tired of looking at his ugly likeness!

Curious that his son-in-law, Jared Kushner, who is flush with Saudi cash, has not offered to help. Or is it?

Since the NY properties are encumbered, Ms. James is welcome to take the Trump International Hotel in Chicago off his hands as well and no one will have to look at the gigantic Trump sign on the river side anymore.

Thanks for the update Mary. I’m so proud of our Leticia James. Who would have thought NY would bring him down. Hopefully this is the beginning of his downfall. We have to beat him like we did before. Freedom will ring💙💙🇺🇸🇺🇸

So, let's pause for a moment to appreciate that the dude who is all about grabbing others by their parts, is, at long last, going to have his own assets seized.

What do you mean he can't pay, didn’t he say he was a billionaire? 😁

All I can think about is “oh what a tangled web we weave when first we practice to deceive” or the other quote about chickens coming home to roost. His history of discrimination in housing so many years ago will finally take him down.

I am cautiously optimistic, but remembering that he pulled a very similar thing with the bond that he had to post for E. Jean Carroll’s court award, only to post the bond the day before the deadline.

After his bloodbath statements for the good of the country he needs to be locked away from any ability to communicate with his followers because he’s just champing at the bit to unleash violent chaos on the country and the world for that mater, and that ain’t hyperbole!

Hi All, Donald is out on bail for a number of charges, some are felonies.. it is incomprehensible to me why, after his pronouncements in Ohio the other day why his bail is not revoked and he is put in jail? Any other criminal whose behavior resembled Donald while out on bail would have that bail revoked and he would be in jail…. Anyone? Anyone?

The orange ‘dictator wanna be’ IS not alone. If he gets or Has Already gotten money from Putin, the Saudi prince he’s OWNED. Or maybe it’s Thiel and Musk… he’ll still BE Owned. By Fascists.

At his rallies, supporting Him and this fascist bent in America, Standing with tRump, standing as he salutes the insurrectionists- Their ARE U.S. senators & governors, house members. WHO and WHAT ARE THESE people??? I know what they’re Not… Not patriotic Americans believing in “law & order” or democracy!

How could they be standing & supporting this rhetoric and behavior!?

Vote against all of them! Vote them out! KEEP them out!!!

This is definitely good news, Mary. We all knew Idiot à l’Orange was lying about being so rich. We knew because he lies about everything. I am trying not to get too celebratory about this. But, dare I hope to see Leticia James posting sheriff sale signs on his prized, heavily-leveraged properties? Oh, yes, I dare.

Wasn't it just a couple weeks ago that botoxed barbie lawyer said that he has "billions and billions of dollars"?

Thanks for sharing the good news, Mary! And thank you for your service! (All of us have asshole relatives, too. Maybe not MAGAlomaniacs, but still...)
