It was mentioned elsewhere, the NY case perhaps, that if the state puts a lien on some of his assets or takes them, this may lead to an immediate cancellation of loans based on contract terms, with an avalanche effect.John Thomas8 wrote: ↑Sat Feb 24, 2024 5:13 am Along with all these judgments, doesn't this maggot have some 9-figure loans coming due within a year?
Speaking of liens, I know that a lien by the IRS for unpaid taxes immediately goes to the head of the line, even before secured mortgage lenders.RTH10260 wrote: ↑Sat Feb 24, 2024 9:15 amIt was mentioned elsewhere, the NY case perhaps, that if the state puts a lien on some of his assets or takes them, this may lead to an immediate cancellation of loans based on contract terms, with an avalanche effect.John Thomas8 wrote: ↑Sat Feb 24, 2024 5:13 am Along with all these judgments, doesn't this maggot have some 9-figure loans coming due within a year?
A federal tax lien does not immediately go to the head of the line. It's place in priority depends on when the Notice of Federal Tax Lien was filed vis-a-vis the filings of other secured creditors (e.g., the deed of trust filed by a secured mortgage lender). If it were otherwise, our home mortgage market would have long since collapsed (or lenders would have charge much higher interest rates).noblepa wrote: ↑Sat Feb 24, 2024 1:32 pm Speaking of liens, I know that a lien by the IRS for unpaid taxes immediately goes to the head of the line, even before secured mortgage lenders.
Is that true for liens by a state government for a court judgement?
IOW, if NY puts a lien on one of Trump's heavily mortgaged properties, does the secured creditor get paid before or after the state, even though the creditor was there first?

As I understand it, that amount could balloon very quickly. Apparently, it is common practice in large commercial loans to include a clause that makes the loan immediately due upon the filing of a judgement lien.John Thomas8 wrote: ↑Tue Feb 27, 2024 3:37 pmBack in 2021 Forbes estimated the orange shitgibbon had $228 million coming due in 2024 ($1.3 billion between 2022 and 2048):Foggy wrote: ↑Tue Feb 27, 2024 12:01 pmAnd what about money he owes to the Russians?

And, his defense in this trial was that no one SHOULD believe his financials.chancery wrote: ↑Tue Feb 27, 2024 5:36 pm As a result, there's usually a lot of incentive all around to resolve unexpected events of default through negotiations. Maybe a little restructuring here, some addition collateral there, and frequently an increase in the interest rate as a sweetener. But of course, the negotiations won't get very far if the lenders don't trust Trump's financial statements, and as to that ...For instance, it seems unlikely that anyone is going to offer him a preferential interest rate.

but that is absolutely standard business practice for the turnip.
In the past, he has never declared personal bankruptcy. He has always set up corporations that suck in investors, as you say. And then he has milked the corporation in multiple ways before the corporation, reduced to an empty shell, declares bankruptcy, thereby screwing investors and bondholders, but not Donald.keith wrote: ↑Thu Feb 29, 2024 2:09 ambut that is absolutely standard business practice for the turnip.
Strike up a development company, get the company to take out loans and pay him exorbitant 'finders fees' or whatever the heck, then separate himself from the company except for leasing his name back at exorbitant rates. Then the company files for bankruptcy with no connection to him except for liabilities for franchise fees or whatever.
He's done it over and over and over.

An NBC News review of available 2024 crime data shows overall crime levels dropping in cities that have received the most migrants.
When Donald Trump speaks at the southern border in Texas on Thursday, you can expect to hear him talk about “migrant crime,” a category he has coined and defined as a terrifying binge of criminal activity committed by undocumented immigrants spreading across the country.
“You know, in New York, what’s happening with crime is it’s through the roof, and it’s called ‘migrant,’” the former president said at a rally in Michigan earlier this month. “They beat up police officers. You’ve seen that they go in, they stab people, hurt people, shoot people. It’s a whole new form, and they have gangs now that are making our gangs look like small potatoes.”
Trump has undoubtedly tapped into the rising anger over crimes allegedly committed by undocumented migrants that have gained national attention — most recently, the killing of college student Laken Riley in Georgia last week, after which an undocumented migrant from Venezuela was arrested and charged with her murder, and the much-reported fight between New York police officers and a group of migrant teens.
According to a recent Pew poll, 57% of Americans said that a large number of migrants seeking to enter the country leads to more crime. Republicans (85%) overwhelmingly say the migrant surge leads to increased crime in the U.S. A far smaller share of Democrats (31%) say the same. The poll found that 63% of Democrats say it does not have much of an impact.
But despite the former president’s campaign rhetoric, expert analysis and available data from major-city police departments show that despite several horrifying high-profile incidents, there is no evidence of a migrant-driven crime wave in the United States.

Overall crime is down year over year in Philadelphia, Chicago, Denver, New York and Los Angeles. Crime has risen in Washington, D.C., but local officials do not attribute the spike to migrants.
“This is a public perception problem. It’s always based upon these kinds of flashpoint events where an immigrant commits a crime,” explains Graham Ousey, a professor at the College of William & Mary and the co-author of “Immigration and Crime: Taking Stock.” “There’s no evidence for there being any relationship between somebody’s immigrant status and their involvement in crime.”
Ousey notes the emotional toll these incidents have taken and how they can inform public perception, saying, “They can be really egregious acts of criminality that really draw lots of attention that involve somebody who happens to be an immigrant. And if you have leaders, political leaders who are really pushing that narrative, I think that would have the tendency to sort of push up the myth.”
“At least a couple of recent studies show that undocumented immigrants are also not more likely to be involved in crime,” Ousey says — in part because of caution about their immigration status. “The individual-level studies actually show that they’re less involved than native-born citizens or second-generation immigrants.”
