AdvertisementIt called for supporters to donate to the Trump Save America Joint Fundraising Committee, Trump's main campaign PAC. But it suggested the money would somehow back his battle cry of "KEEP YOUR FILTHY HANDS OFF OF TRUMP TOWER!"

Trump must stow $500M cash in a bank to cover the appeal bond for his NY fraud case, experts say. His next appeal bond will cost him far more. By posting another appeal bond. Similar to the more familiar jail bond, an appeal bond is a promise of payment that's backed by collateral, meaning cash or property. The premium on a half-billion-dollar appeal bond could run anywhere from $250,000 to north of one million dollars, just to purchase the bond, experts guestimated.

In three months, Trump faces a civil fraud trial that could run his Trump Organization out of New York. There's Jack, and Fani, and Alvin, of course, all poised to prosecute the former president criminally. And Donald Trump, Donald Trump, Jr., Ivanka Trump, and Eric Trump would further be banned from ever running a business anywhere in the state. The financial and psychic toll to being a mogul in exile would be great, two Trump biographers told Insider. Smith appears on the brink of winning a new indictment, relating to the 2020 election, as does District Attorney Fani Willis in Atlanta.

Lawyers for Trump say they can't meet their deadlines in the NY attorney general's fraud lawsuit. There are 16 defendants named in the attorney general's lawsuit, a number that includes Donald Trump, Donald Trump, Jr., Eric Trump, Ivanka Trump, and a dozen other executives and Trump Organization sub-entities. "The current schedule imposes significant hardship on Defendants," the Trump lawyers argued in a supplemental filing. "The Defendants' claimed hardship is self-inflicted," the attorney general countered in a filing last week, after the Trump lawyers first broached moving deadlines. The judge, too, has yet to rule on the Trump lawyers' request for more time.
