I worked at gorgas hospital. --lot of silver bullet shots given during that time for all the clap . Love to go back there--daughter born there at gorgas hospital.

                • Crazy how Navarro’s heading to jail and his entire trial and appeals took place AFTER Bannon was found guilty. His appeal has been pending since late summer of 2022. Wtf is the holdup there? And if anything Bannon should have had a weaker case than Navarro. At least Pete was actually in the Administration at the time.

                      • The size of the fine was unusual but Trump is straight up lying here. You put up a bond to stop asset seizure while your appeal is pending. It’s to prevent frivolous appeals from assholes like him. It’s exactly the way the system works.

                        • I read an interesting bit last night that, apparently, the industry standard in issuing these types of bonds is $100M max and they don't allow real estate to be used as collateral. Real estate, obviously, comprises most of Trump's wealth. I can't imagine it's a quick process to liquidate a few hundred million in assets so unless his lawyers succeed in getting the bond reduced to $100M, NY will start seizing properties. I'd imagine Mar-a-Lago is off limits since it's located in Florida. Anyone know if Trump has any say in which properties to forfeit?

                            I don't know about the rest but I think it depends on which entity owns which asset. If the entity that owns Mar-a-Lago is registered in NY then it's probably up for grabs. Same goes for the private jet no matter what state it's currently located in.

                            He supposedly DID find one company willing to lend him the money but they couldn't agree on terms (in other words, he believes he's entitled to a good deal on this loan and wasn't getting it).

                            • At least one Supreme Court opinion is coming at 10 AM. Dunno if it'll be anything interesting. A ruling on Texas' new immigration/deportation law could also come at any time. Alito put it on indefinite hold yesterday at the deadline. Which probably means someone's writing a dissent and isn't finished yet.
