Another Trump appointee tied to Epstein: Bill Pulte. His dad bid against Trump & Epstein on a mansion that Trump sold to a Russian oligarch. Ruined Trump’s friendship with Epstein. Pulte’s dad later developed a mansion on that property, which sold for $122M in 2022

Mills caused "substantial emotional distress." The court cited his "conduct," "his reasoning" & "his lack of reasoning," and his contacting her after I asked for comment, to find she has "reasonable cause to believe she is in imminent danger of becoming the victim of another act of dating violence"

The court found Mills "failed to control himself," sent "harassing communications," and ignored Langston's 11 requests to stop contacting her. As for the sextortion allegation, the court "does not find [Mills's] testimony concerning the intimate videos to be truthful"

In his decision, the judge found that Mills lied a lot — e.g., he "never told the truth" to his ex about another woman "until he was placed under oath in this matter and underwent a vigorous cross-examination." His ex "finally heard the truth," the judge wrote, "at the same time he told this Court."

SCOOP: After two public court hearings, a Florida judge has issued a restraining order against Rep. Cory Mills for "protection against dating violence." Mills's ex-girlfriend filed for the injunction in August, alleging sextortion & violent threats. I'll post more clips from the decision below.

Here's the second-home rider (a $137,000 purchase) at issue in the Letitia James indictment. First, it allows renting. It also requires secondary residence for a year, unless:

-or "extenuating circumstances" exist "beyond the Borrower's control"
-the lender agrees otherwise in writing
-or "extenuating circumstances" exist "beyond the Borrower's control"

Jeez. Trump’s first-term El Salvador ambassador, in 2020, fired a U.S. embassy contractor at the request of the president of El Salvador because the contractor was investigating his ties to MS-13. This term, the ambassador — Ronald Johnson — is Trump’s ambassador to Mexico.
