Mike Luckovich for March 21, 2024

He’s had too much time to transfer the assets to his kids. I just hope they stiff him and he ends up in jail where he should have been put years ago.

James is a joke

Letitia James —

“I’m automatically attracted to assets. I just start seizing them. It’s like a magnet. I just seize them. I don’t even wait.

“And when you’re the attorney general, they let you do it. You can do anything. Grab ’em by his Trump Tower. You can do anything.”

It’s really the only thing he cares about that isn’t entirely about his own immediate satisfaction.

Actually, no, the law requires it. The Orange menace doesn’t get a free pass.

Go get them!

Most of those assets have been acquired on the backs of unpaid workers.

Stinky’s about to find out that his BS could only take him so far. His financial house of cards is about to come tumbling down. It was inevitable, though. It’s like what happens when a child at the beach builds a sand castle on the very edge of the water just before the tide is about to come in.

The major security risk for the U.S. and the world is that Trump is now a presidential candidate for sale to the highest bidder! Russia, China, Saudi Arabia, Korea… any of them could own us through Trump without lobbing a single bomb! It’s too easy and we’re letting it happen!

Don’t dignify RW trolls with comments on their delusional posts.

If you can’t pay the fine, don’t do the crime.

When you’re the law they let you do it because…IT’S THE LAW!!

If they don’t pay do whatever the hell you want with them.

our resident rat-troll, princess fern mold, sure is busy today

Demonstrating her poor English skills, ignorance of common law and of course, total lack of manners. Sad.

Ms. James is the kinda lawyer I’d like to have, if I ever gets my little Panda Butt in a bind. She’s got no time for fools.

Don’t feed the trolls.

HAHA

I’m going to start a GoFundMe for Mr. Spore, who apparently is in desperate need of a dictionary.

General posting question: Now that GC does not allow the forward slash anymore, is there a workaround to show sarcasm instead of the usual “forward slash S”?

Just hurry up and do it already!

Dear Fern Spores, I’ve just read through the comment chain you started. It must seem like its you against the world. We’ll I’m not here to criticize you in any way. I truly want to help you. Your comments make you sound like you support Trump blindly. Doncouldn’t do that. He’s a monster. He absolutely doesn’t care about you at all. If you went to his rally and a fight broke out you could be killed and Trump couldn’t care less. He is using you every way he can. For your own mental health you need to seriously think about where you are on Trump. Right now you just look foolish. Don’t make it worse by continuing to sing his “praises”. Trump is the head of the biggest crime family in America. You need to get right with America. Read the Constitution. Support Democracy, not fascism. I hope you turn your self around before before you vote for IT.

BPOS

Thank you, Mike. I’ve had this exact same cartoon in mind since the verdict. : )

Letitia James is vindictive and self centered, but certainly not the law. Her Trump obsession has nothing to do with justice. It is very disappointing that her self proclaimed vendetta is allowed legal resources.

One shouldn’t feed the ferntroll, but it is kinda fun watching him soil himself over this.

Why do you all spar with the moron?

New York has become the Russia of the east, political hatred, turn this state and country into a banana republic. Or worse, that’s what they do in Russia, North Korea, China. Fairness, this is not justice. This is criminal behavior by the state.

prostitution is a victimless crime but they send you to jail for that too so ,can’t do the time don’t do the crime

I know Donny feels the law doesn’t apply to him, that’s what he is (and the members of the cult) upset over. Asset seizure is common. Checked it on the FBI site:

“Asset ForfeitureAsset forfeiture is a powerful tool used by law enforcement agencies, including the FBI, against criminals and criminal organizations to deprive them of their ill-gotten gains through seizure of these assets.

History of Asset ForfeitureAsset forfeiture has its roots in the ancient practice by governments to defend against piracy through the seizure of vessels and contraband.

Today it is used to disrupt, dismantle, and deter those who prey on the vulnerable for financial gain, including criminal organizations, drug dealers, terrorists, and white-collar criminals.

Why Does the FBI Use Asset Forfeiture?To punish criminalsTo deter illegal activityTo disrupt criminal organizationsTo remove the tools of the trade from criminalsTo return assets to victimsTo protect communities”

I actually saw, live, Trump stopping in the middle of a lie to tell another lie.

How tone-deaf can you get? This fund-raising appeal from Donald Trump Jr. tries to portray himself as a little lad from a now-threatened humble country cottage, where he had SO MUCH in common with the average working person that he’s hitting up for more bucks: “After denying my father the right to a trial by jury, the radical New York Attorney General Tish James is threatening to have the government seize the home I grew up in – Trump Tower.”

This is just chickens coming home. The Tub of Filth should have been in prison in 2015, sparing us all this hell

the orange blob’s argument on the fraud charges seems to be this: “Sure I got a loan on the cheap, but I paid it off, so we’re OK” to expand on that theory “Sure I robbed the package store, but I’m a good customer and they got it all back in trade, so we’re good.”

I’m betting on the blob going for some kinda bankrupt maneuver Monday. Second choice, he fakes his own death. Third possibility, he makes Eric take the fall.

the blob’s russki wife, Maleficent , came out of hiding the other day, well, it looked like her. Maybe she’s been home with her uncle Vlad, to help with his election?

Aw the aegis is failing and the agent provocateur was caught in the involvement and even his tractable minion’s surfeit stench is overwhelmed by snollygoster’s sophism rodomontade showing once again he is nothing but poppycock on the floor.

While we get varying degrees of schadenfreude seeing him getting his just deserts and those retorts some seek to support his mythomaniac myth empire Hopefully the final outcome will end the fabricated fantasy land and the judge smiles thinking strikhedonia saying pay, go to jail or turnover all assets involved in this fraud

In short, the New York law intends to prevent fraudulent property values from distorting the loan market, to the disadvantage of “honest” borrowers. The law has existed since 1956, and whatever its merits, Donnie was surely aware of its existence and ramifications. He’s just not the kind of guy who plays by the rules.

That’s why he should never hold public office again.

No he didn’t! Read a better source of news!

My mistake, Bi-Polar Ferny is still bloviating, law seems to be closing in on his hero.

Hey, supposedly sane people, do you know what’s a really really good way to promote insipid insanity? Reply to a trollish comment with great frequency, so it gets elevated to “featured” status, where it’ll be the ONLY comment that 90% of the visitors to this toon ever see.

Do they still have Debtors Prison in this country???!!!

You know the left is losing when they insult one or two people on a thread. Keep it up Fern. I know it doesn’t feel like it but you got them where you want them. They can’t argue so they attack and insult.

When people lie in financial filings, they erode the required faith in the system for commerce to flourish. Abuses included Enron, Bernie Madoff, The Wolf of Wall Street, and banks underwriting mortgages without verifying income then selling off the liabilities. No harm done? The vast majority of those loans are still outstanding! We also all got screwed by T not paying taxes. Screw the insurance companies, what happens? They raise rates on EVERYONE.

If you can’t do the time, or pay the fine, then don’t do the crime! There are thousands of poor folks sitting in jail because they can’t bail out. Put him in jail with his accountant.

Colbert did this joke in a monologue right after the trial wrapped up.

I find it insanely funny that in a ’toon about Letitia, 45, and his assets, Fern of the Oobleck Clan has managed to delve once again into its favored topic: Drag Queens entertaining children. I have seen some pretty far out deflections, but this one needs a trophy of some kind. I guess you stick with what you think you know (fantasize about?) and cherish.

@Jack7528 “you got them where you want them” another delusional statement. Fern of the Oobleck Clan is one of the few here that seems to have very limited debating skills AND when proven wrong, merely sidesteps to a new deflection. It’s almost non-sensical—especially when the deflection is also wrong as well. I would hardly consider that “winning”, but I guess our worlds are quite different.
