Now, the New York attorney general says NovaTechFx is just a front for a $1 billion pyramid scheme. The lawsuit also names as a defendant AWS Mining Pty, a crypto mining platform previously run by the Petions. The lawsuit accuses the couple of targeting Haitian immigrants in New York City to recruit them into the pyramid scheme using local prayer circles. After founding NovaTechFx in 2019, Cynthia Petion rebranded herself as the "Reverend CEO," claiming that her company was "God's vision," the lawsuit says. The Petions also operated the NovaTechFx website, which the lawsuit says is where investors would go to invest in cryptocurrency through the company, according to court documents.

Former DOJ official Neal Katyal commented on Donald Trump's 14-page response to the DOJ. Katyal said he did not think the response would help Trump unless he was trying to plead insanity. He said Trump's response was "evidence" of an insanity plea. But it does seem to dig the hole in deeper for Donald Trump," Katyal told MSNBC host Jonathan Capehart. A representative at Trump's post-presidential press office did not immediately respond to Insider's request for comment.
Michael Cohen said he thinks Trump will get indicted on tax charges. Speaking to MSNBC, Cohen predicted Trump would face the "Al Capone effect." Capone, a notorious gangster, was indicted in 1931 on tax evasion charges. "Like the Al Capone effect, you're not going to get him on murder, extortion, racketeering. During his MSNBC appearance, Cohen commented on Trump's legal troubles and predicted that the former president would use a "playbook" — which Cohen helped create — in response to them.
Donald Trump was once paid in gold bars for the lease of a parking garage, per a new book. New York Times reporter Maggie Haberman wrote that the gold bars were sent to Trump Tower. Per CNN, Haberman wrote that Trump didn't know how to handle the dozens of gold bars sent to him. They were eventually wheeled up to his apartment at Trump Tower, though it's unclear what happened with the gold bars afterward. Haberman also recalled in the excerpt seen by CNN that Trump was asked about the gold bars and responded by calling it a "fantasy question."
