Trump needed $225 million, Axos Bank (formerly Bank of Internet USA) came to the rescue.
CEO & GOP donor Greg Garrabrants approved the loans.
Much of this story was previously reported, but an interesting detail is noted - the Axos loans have drawn scrutiny from NY Attorney General Letitia James in her fraud case against Trump.

Gratitude Post!
Thank you to the creators and managers of all videophone devices and software. If not for your work the recent Covid-19 pandemic would have so much harder for people to endure. You literally helped humanity stay connected and you did it with charity and reasonableness. THANK YOU people at ZOOM, people at WhatsApp, people at FaceTime, etc. from a personal perspective your work allowed me to SEE, not just talk to my isolated elders, my growing nieces and nephews, and far-away friends.

McConnell’s “funny turn” (we’ll call it that) does provide a further argument for term limits in government: what is the point of having politicians who can’t be removed except by the Almighty, especially when they are ill? #uspol #uspolitics #politics

More kids are working dangerous jobs in the U.S. amid weaker labor laws and child migration.
CBS News reports: "In the last 10 months, federal regulators have found almost 4,500 children working in violation of federal child labor laws, an increase of 44% from a year earlier."

Via @KlasfeldReports:
The Manhattan DA wants a federal judge's permission to access the "full transcript and video recording" of #Trump's deposition in the #EJeanCarroll case, calling it "relevant and material" to the hush-money case.
Context: DA previously cited Trump's Access Hollywood remarks. #legal https://t.co/mDyqzao0U4

THE CALENDAR!
From Tristan Snell
Schedule of upcoming Trump indictments:
DOJ, January 6 -- today or tomorrow
Fulton County, Georgia -- next week or week after
DOJ, New Jersey, classified docs -- this is likely on deck and ready to go if the Florida case gets bogged down

I’m sure the meeting between DT lawyers and prosecutors involved a lot of laughter. Some fatalistic and cynical, but mostly full-body, tears streaming down your face, pounding the conference table, barely able to breathe because of the epic absurdity of the criminal clown defendant, and ended with prosecutors basically telling DT lawyers, “It must really suck to be you.”

BREAKING: Fulton County courthouse in Atlanta gets barricades in place.
DA Fani Willis previously asked judges not to schedule trials for first 2 weeks of August.
Trump indictments -- a dozen or more, including maybe of Lindsey Graham -- are coming.
