1/2: Per ⁦@Fahrenthold⁩, the NY AG’s case against Trump relies on his submission of “Statements of Financial Condition” and inflated assets to lenders to get $$$. Trump produced an SOFC during my litigation with him over “TrumpNation” and... washingtonpost.com/politics/new-y…
2/2...that SOFC was problematic. Trump’s own accountants wouldn’t sign off on its accuracy and the document didn’t comply with generally accepted accounting principles.

Amazing if Trump was getting loans and insurance using a similar document.

And may suggest why Eric bailed.
“The filing said that Eric Trump had been scheduled to be interviewed in the investigation in late July, but abruptly canceled that interview. The filing says that Eric Trump is now refusing to be interviewed.”
“Allen Weisselberg, the Trump Organization’s chief financial officer, has already testified as part of the probe, though his questioning in July was cut short when he was asked whether he’d testified before a federal grand jury.”

Eric Trump is the president of Seven Springs LLC:

In 2016, Trump had Seven Springs valued by Cushman & Wakefield Inc. at $56.6 million - and the Trumps used that valuation to claim about $21.1 million in tax deductions. If the valuation was inflated...so were the tax deductions.

“All he wants to do is appeal to his base,” Trump’s sister, Maryanne, said in a secret recording by her niece, Mary Trump.”He has no principles. None. None. And his base, I mean my God, if you were a religious person, you want to help people. Not do this.” washingtonpost.com/politics/marya…
“His goddamned tweet and lying, oh my God,” she said. “I’m talking too freely, but you know. The change of stories. The lack of preparation. The lying. Holy shit.”
Of course Trump’s siblings understand exactly who he is: “It’s the phoniness of it all. It’s the phoniness and this cruelty. Donald is cruel.”

Trump’s Russia scandal wasn’t a “hoax.” It was reality. And a bipartisan report today from a Senate committee led by Republicans is a reminder that facts still matter - and that Trump’s relationship with Putin is an ongoing threat. My column: bloomberg.com/opinion/articl…
“One of Trumpism’s enduring scars will be the social fissures it’s widened by waging war on objective reality and public faith in bedrock institutions ... Division, chaos and disrepair — and the corruption of the American experiment — are the long-term consequences.”
Felix Sater is all over the Senate report. A reminder that Sater was a mobbed up grifter who did business with Trump and his family for years: bloomberg.com/opinion/articl…

USPS delivered about 800 million packages between Thanksgiving and New Year’s last year. It delivered about 2.5 billion pieces of first class mail the week before Christmas.

Even if *every one* of roughly 130 million voters mailed their ballots this fall, USPS could handle it.
The only thing that gets in USPS’ way are having mail sorting machines yanked from post office hubs and hours cut back for mail carriers so delivery slows down dramatically - the kind of things Trump’s man at USPS, Louis DeJoy, is doing.
“A majority of states won’t accept mail-in ballots unless they arrive by Election Day, even if they’re postmarked prior to Election Day.” bloomberg.com/opinion/articl…
