Did Russia pay Trump's $91 million bond? [View all]

Last edited Sat Mar 9, 2024, 01:53 PM - Edit history (1)

After a month of complaining about being required to post $91 million bond in the E. Jean Carroll case, Trump suddenly stepped up with the money.

DID RUSSIA PUT UP TRUMP'S BOND? We report, you decide.

Insurance company guaranteeing Trump's $91 million bond appears to have ties to Kremlin

. . .

According to the Washington Post, the Federal Insurance Company, a subsidiary of Chubb Group LLC, provided the massive bond guaranty.

. . .

Chubb, it turns out, has extensive ties to Russia and the Kremlin, with environmental nonprofit group Rainforest Action Network (RAN) reporting on its website, “Chubb CEO Evan Greenberg talks a big game on climate change, but those words ring hollow when examining his company’s business practices. Chubb insures fossil fuel infrastructure in Russia that is bankrolling Putin’s war on Ukraine, . . .

The national security implications of Trump taking money from a company that invests heavily in Russia are massive and terrifying, especially since the ex-president is scheduled to start receiving weekly national security briefings now that he’s been declared the presumptive 2024 Republican presidential nominee by the GOP.

The Washington Post reports on Chubb but does not comment on the Chubb-Kremlin connection.

No, it's really not. TwilightZone Mar 9 #62

The FACTS are that Russia interfered with an election and helped install Trump into the WH. Irish_Dem Mar 9 #63

+1. There is so much to criticize trump for that we don't have to invent conspiracies. But we do. Silent Type Mar 9 #13

And it's just as stupid when we do it. Ocelot II Mar 9 #15

Totally agree. It's actually worse when we do it. Silent Type Mar 9 #17

Yup. We're supposed to be the reality-based people who believe in facts and science, who check their sources, Ocelot II Mar 9 #19

Why do we care? What's important is that Carroll gets the money she was awarded. Ocelot II Mar 9 #21

I think your priorities are upside down. triron Mar 9 #30

My priority is for Carroll to get the money she has been awarded. I guess you don't care if she does. onenote Mar 9 #36

Not at all. Where this case is concerned, the *only* priority is that Carroll is compensated Ocelot II Mar 9 #44

And of course it's just a coincidence orban shows up. triron Mar 9 #53

Where is the CIA? triron Mar 9 #56

Soon after Trump entered the WH, there was a very high death and disappearance rate of CIA assets. Irish_Dem Mar 9 #57

Since it is DT and the ceo is connected to DT, I would look hard at how the bond is backed. 58Sunliner Mar 9 #43

Oh, here we go again. The bond ensures the judgment will be paid if TFG loses the appeal. Period. Ocelot II Mar 9 #51

If he loses the appeal, that would be the normal process. 58Sunliner Mar 10 #67
