Here’s What We Know About Letitia James’s Fraud Lawsuit Against Trump

/0 Comments/in , /by

New York Attorney General Letitia James unveiled a civil fraud lawsuit against Donald Trump and his three adult children on Wednesday, marking the latest escalation of the yearslong investigation into the former president’s financial dealings in the state.

In her lawsuit, James is seeking a minimum punishment of $250 million for Trump’s alleged fraudulent business practices, pointing to evidence her office has uncovered that proves the Trump Organization violated several state laws by manipulating its asset valuations.

“This investigation revealed that Donald Trump engaged in years of illegal conduct to inflate his net worth … to deceive banks and the people of the great state of New York,” James said Wednesday. “Claiming you have money that you do not have does not amount to the art of the deal. It’s the art of the steal.”

Here’s what the lawsuit says:

During its yearslong investigation, the New York Attorney General’s Office uncovered evidence of Trump manipulating his company’s asset valuations in more than 200 instances over a 10-year period, according to James.

Trump Reveals Threat He Used to Secure Taliban Deal

/0 Comments/in , /by

Former President Donald Trump said he secured a deal with the Taliban by personally threatening the leader of the Taliban.

In part two of his sit-down interview with Fox News Channel’s Sean Hannity, Mr. Trump criticized President Biden’s oversight of the U.S. withdrawal from Afghanistan, which Mr. Trump had negotiated.

But the 2024 Republican presidential front-runner suggested the chaotic evacuation and the death of 13 U.S. servicemembers happened because the Taliban respected him but not Mr. Biden.

In March 2020, Mr. Trump spoke for 35 minutes with the deputy leader of the Taliban, Mullah Abdul Ghani Baradar.

Mr. Hannity said in the interview that aired Thursday evening on “Hannity” that the former president had previously told him that he had told the mullah “that in no uncertain terms you would obliterate him if he dared not to follow every dotted I, crossed T, comma, period” of any deal.

Joe Rogan Torches White House Press Secretary After Doocy Asked About Her 2016 Stolen Election Claim

/0 Comments/in , /by

Joe Rogan torched White House Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre over what he called a “ridiculous” answer to Fox News’ Peter Doocy about her 2016 stolen election claim.

During Spotify’s “The Joe Rogan Experience” podcast on Tuesday, the host was speaking with stand-up comedians Tony Hinchcliffe and Hans Kim about the press secretary’s “hilarious” answer to Doocy about a tweet she made in 2016 claiming that former President Donald Trump had stolen the election.

“Did you ever see her confronted on it?” Rogan asked his guests. “You gotta see this. It’s hilarious. Cause that guy Peter Doocy from Fox News, who always asks the best questions. Like, if you want that show to be entertaining, you want that guy to ask questions, because he always catches them.”

“And so he brings up a tweet of hers from 2016, where she says the election is stolen while she’s talking about how important it is not entertaining any ideas of the 2020 election being stolen,” he added. “Like, what are you talking about? What?”

“First of all, what kind of audit have you done where you’re so confident that the election has been stolen or has not been stolen,” the podcast host continued. “How much work are you doing before you’re making these assertions? Almost zero.” (Read more from “Joe Rogan Torches White House Press Secretary After Doocy Asked About Her 2016 Stolen Election Claim” HERE)

‘How Is That in Our National Interest?’: Gov Takes Action to Limit Chinese Communist Party’s Land Buyouts

/0 Comments/in , /by

Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis proposed legislation Thursday prohibiting the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) from continuing its “nefarious” policy of land buyouts near U.S military bases in the state.

The measure limits companies affiliated with China and other countries of concern, including Russia, Iran and North Korea, from purchasing sensitive land around the 21 U.S. military bases in Florida. Chinese purchases of land at Grand Forks Air Force Base in North Dakota, reported by CNBC in July, and Malmstrom Air Force Base in Montana triggered worries that the CCP would use the land to surveil goings-on at the bases, potentially giving the CCP a conflict advantage and provide insight to U.S. defense technology.

“How is that in our national interest?” DeSantis said in a press briefing.

“They want to get intelligence. They want to know what’s going on here in the United States,” he added.

China’s Huawei has installed telecommunications equipment on land near U.S. military bases, raising concerns among lawmakers and national security officials that the CCP might intend to capture sensitive data on military procedures and personnel, CNN reported.

Trump Inadvertently Blocks Return of Close Ally Mike Lindell’s Phone

/0 Comments/in , /by

Former President Donald Trump’s litigation over documents he took to his Florida home inadvertently led to a judge rejecting a request by MyPillow founder Mike Lindell to regain access to his cellphone after FBI agents seized it at a Hardee’s drive-thru earlier this month.

Lindell, a close ally of the 45th president, had his motion for a temporary restraining order denied by U.S. District Judge Eric Tostrud, thwarting the pillow entrepreneur’s efforts to regain access to his mobile device that was seized by federal agents last week.

The FBI seized Lindell’s phone on Sept. 13 while he was waiting at the fast food drive-thru in Minnesota. Lindell filed a lawsuit Tuesday in federal court, seeking a temporary restraining order that would require the government to stop accessing his phone and return it.

But Tostrud cited a Wednesday ruling by the 11th Circuit Court of Appeals that significantly altered a Trump-appointed district judge’s special master order in the litigation battle between Trump and the Justice Department.

‘Final’ Answer: Special Master Gives Trump Last Chance to Dispute FBI Inventory

/0 Comments/in , /by

The special master reviewing paperwork seized from former President Donald Trump’s Florida home on Thursday gave Trump a “final opportunity” to dispute an inventory of records taken by the FBI.

Judge Raymond Dearie said that Trump has until Sept. 30 to clarify his claims that documents may have been planted.

Dearie is the semi-retired “senior” Brooklyn federal court judge reviewing whether the government has a right to various records taken by the FBI in an Aug. 8 raid on his Mar-a-Lago resort.

Dearie wrote that the deadline will be Trump’s “final opportunity to raise any factual dispute as to the completeness and accuracy of the Detailed Property Inventory.”

Trump has not released evidence to back up his insinuations that some records may have been planted. (Read more from “‘Final’ Answer: Special Master Gives Trump Last Chance to Dispute FBI Inventory” HERE)

Christians Slam Newsom for ‘Disgusting’ Billboards Quoting Jesus

/0 Comments/in , , /by

Democratic California Gov. Gavin Newsom is taking flak from Christians who are offended by his multi-state billboard campaign that promotes abortion by quoting Jesus.

Last week, Newsom took to Twitter to tout the billboards his gubernatorial campaign is erecting in Texas, Oklahoma, Mississippi and four other “anti-freedom” states where abortion is restricted or outlawed.

Some versions of the billboards, all of which urge women in such states to come to California to get abortions, advertise the state’s easily obtainable abortions by quoting Mark 12:31, where Jesus says, “Love your neighbor as yourself. There is no greater commandment than these.”

Newsom tagged several GOP governors in his Twitter thread, including Texas Gov. Greg Abbott, Ohio Gov. Mike DeWine and Mississippi Gov. Tate Reeves. The billboards are also going up Indiana, South Carolina and South Dakota.

“The idea that Newsom is using the words of Jesus Christ, the Holy Scriptures, to promote the killing of unborn children as somehow loving and commanded by God is quite frankly disgusting,” said Jay Sekulow, chief counsel of the American Center for Law & Justice, in a statement to Fox News Digital.

“This is a blatant, political fundraising ploy to boost his own political profile and presidential aspirations. The people are smarter than that. It just won’t work,” Sekulow added. (Read more from “Christians Slam Newsom for ‘Disgusting’ Billboards Quoting Jesus” HERE)

Andrew Cuomo Publicly Trashes Biden, Pelosi and Obama

/0 Comments/in , /by

Former Gov. Andrew Cuomo (D-NY) publicly came out shaming the Biden administration for not standing by him during his sexual harassment scandal last year.

Telling a New York Post reporter, Cuomo said that it was “traumatizing” that no one from his party supported him during that time.

Saying that he has been friends with President Joe Biden for almost 20 years, the disgraced governor said that it was “heartbreaking” to see Biden turn his back on him without knowing the full story.

“It was tough. Traumatizing. Biden, a friend 20 years, not knowing details, immediately said about me, ‘He’s got to go.’ Biden had troubles years before and I stood by him… gave him the benefit of the doubt. It was heartbreaking to see him trash me without reading one page, making one phone call,” Cuomo said.

Calling the phrase “political friends” an oxymoron, Cuomo went on to call out House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif) and former President Obama, as well as other Democrat figures for not being by his side during the allegations.
