'Outlooks mediocre or worse': Trump Media investors warned off in alarming Forbes analysis https://t.co/IsJzPxuO1S

It's pretty clear by now that the small investors are MAGA idiots who will lose their shirts. The people not shorting DJT (the stock, not the person) are going to wish they hadn't bought the stock. The investors in the stock (like Russia, which is backing the company that floated the stock offering in the first place) are not in it for the money. They're in it for the influence. More direct than a campaign contribution, and not subject to reporting requirements. Besides, no limits on what they can contribute. (Not unlike the guy bailing Trump out of the NYT fraud judgment.)

Um, but see 17 C.F.R. § 240.10b-5 https://t.co/WFVyGTHBQs pic.twitter.com/fp6Au0Erhw

Not that Trump is helping matters any. Meanwhile, back in New York City:

BREAKING Trump accused by prosecutor of withholding information during $464M civil fraud trial https://t.co/2H8BuAubjE

"We have already raised multiple times the prospect that Defendants have withheld relevant and responsive information," the letter states. "We ask that the Monitor be directed to investigate certain issues surrounding the recent perjury plea by defendant Allen Weisselberg."

James wants the Monitor to have freedom to investigate and report back to prosecutors with two weeks, the letter states.

The authority of the monitor has been affirmed by the Appellate Division.  The appellate bond has nothing to do with this.  But it's not going to help Trump make his appeal.
