      he already did, and the fucking let him squeak by on a 175m bond from an agency that wasnt technically financially able to do it.

      because rich people have different rules.

          ha! I had actually had typed out ‘legally’ but changed it. legality is irrelevant if its allowed to stand and it is standing, isnt it?

        they lowered the bond to 175m, and let him used an illegal-in-new-york bond agency.
