Mike Mcdee

That's kind of what I was thinking. The reason he's in this mess is because he cheated on Barron's mom while she was pregnant with him. What are the odds that DJT knows what high school Baron goes to?

Part of me thinks the only reason he is currently running is because he wants to avoid any and all jail time. That's why he is asking for immunity from the Supreme Court. The fact that he is asking for immunity makes me think he believes there is a chance he is convicted and may face consequences. So if he looses later this year, he may be in jail and thus won't be able to run in 28.

For those of you with trading accounts, is there a way to short this stock? It feels like this will dip below $10.

Heard this morning that Frankie will be announcing on Monday on 1620 with Gary. Sounds like he has a list of 4, but it really is down to CU and Nebraska.

I'm pretty sure the congregation is there specifically because of the church's stance in politics.

And a Church is giving him that stage here in Nebraska.

Why is this guy speaking at a church?

The reason people like Tim brought Stewart into this is because they thought they were pointing out the hypocrisy of him calling out Trump. That's what internet personalities like him do; digital dunking on someone. But like I said, they are two different scenarios. I work in a field adjacent and we rely on the property owners to at least be somewhat close in their applications. So much so that the signature pages state "To the best of your knowledge" about statements of fact. There is an allowance with in reason. The magnitude of difference here lead the judge to determine intentional fraud. There are some wild parts to this case, I'll grant you that. But according to the law, it's fraud. Whether an appeals court will overturn it remains to be seen.

That's the thing. It's worth what the market will bear. So if someone makes you an offer, that is the market price. If you want a buyer to offer you 10 times what you paid for your house, you can sh!t in one hand and wish in the other and see which one fills up first. Stewart's wish hand just happened to fill. And again, the two examples discussed are vastly different circumstances.

double.

Looking at the facts of the case Tim, he sold his penthouse for $18mm while it was valued at $1.8mm and assessed at I think $850k. He probably had to pay the gains on that sale. It then sold for $13mm later. Maybe the buyer over paid because it was a celebrities house. They can't write off that loss if it was their primary home. So some of the taxes were captured. I get it. You don't like hypocrisy and want everyone held accountable to the same standards. The problem these two situations are not the same. Assessed value rarely if ever equates to market value. Nor do assessors increase assessed value to match sale price. I know this because I'm good friends with our county assessor and they have told me so. Assessed valuation changes occur when overall neighborhood marked trends dictate an adjustment, or if there is a material change to the property. Trump over inflated the value of his properties (and factual characteristics of the properties) to represent a better Loan To Value ratio, thus earning him a more competitive rate. Stewart sold his home to a willing buyer for asking price.

So since this is a civil case that involves money, one would have to evaluate how much it would cost the state of New York to prosecute this crime on an individual case by case basis and how much lost revenue could be captured. If it is more than the cost to litigate, then it is a net negative for the state. Sounds like a prosecutor would go after winnable cases that yield more than the cost. Sounds like good fiscal conservativism.

He is.

It's Hastings, so I don't see a woman, let alone a (D), getting elected here. I've sat on committees and heard nominations to boards get voted down due to the fact the applicant was a woman. I'll do my part though.

I've spoken to people at the capitol that can't wait for his term to be over. He's my district rep. and I agree with their sentiment. The guy is a terrible human. I don't know if his replacement options are any better, but the Unicameral will be better off without him. He doesn't have the decency to resign because he also lacks the ability to feel shame.
