"NEW YORK — A judge Thursday granted the New York attorney general’s request that former President Donald Trump’s business empire be overseen by an independent monitor.
New York Supreme Court Justice Arthur Engoron issued an order after a daylong hearing, requiring that the Trump Organization’s dealings with banks and sale of major assets be subject to supervision by a third-party expert to be named by the court.
…
Engoron said in his ruling the evidence of fraudulent valuations by Trump and his businesses was “more than sufficient” to indicate that James is likely to prevail in the lawsuit she filed in September, which is seeking strict limits on the Trump businesses’ activities in New York and a ban on the former president and his three eldest children from serving as an officer of any New York corporation.

(Added by bobot: Trump commenting here…)
“A puppet judge of the New York Attorney General and other sworn enemies of President Trump and the Republican Party has just issued a ruling never before seen anywhere in America. It is Communism come to our shores,”
Yadda yadda yadda.
So, a Special Master?
< snort!! >
In theory, could this be grounds for a libel suit?
Yep, @bobot better hire a good lawyer.
Ok, that was funny. 
LOL I really thought @bobot was quoting Trump not just imitating him! I should have read more closely.
If he wanted to imitate Trump, the last thing he should do is hire a good lawyer.
He was. That quote is in the linked Politico article.
Arrgh! I give up.
Poe’s Law strikes again.
D’oh! I thought he was making it up. Sorry, @Love_Rhombus.
Ha ha! I was just trying to point out that the quote moved from “story” to Trump commenting. No trickery intended.
Duplicity! 
Dolt45 has another meltdown:
….The New York State Court System is being ridiculed all over the World! You have a Corrupt, Racist, Weak on Crime Attorney General, Letitia “Peekaboo”James, who campaigned on “I will get Trump, even though she knew NOTHING about me. Then you have a highly political, biased Judge, who is totally controlled by my worst enemies. His rulings and manner are SICK. He gave his quick hearing, & ridiculous decision, right before Midterms - A No No! He’s worse than Peekaboo, and a real “Trump Hater."
Peekaboo. ?
Is that supposed to be like “J” youknowwhat??
It must be something else, right?
Right??
I can’t think of anything else. She’s not a skier.
Well what the fuck? He should have to explain that. And any Republican afraid to condemn that should be exposed.
And any Democrat not spotlighting it should explain to voters why racism is nothing to be alarmed about.
The fuck??
I predict that at some point in the future, Trump is going to be cited for contempt, and will have some jail time given to him. Because he won’t be able to stop his mouth from working. The senility is getting closer to the surface.
Peekaboo. Is some racist reference? Could someone enlighten me?
