Good question. It was called Queen’s Royal Warrant because it was awarded during the reign of Queen Elizabeth II. I honestly don’t know if such warrants are re-named upon the ascencion of a new monarch of a different gender. ---

I think she probably would have been satisfied with a long, tireless, focused effort with more progress, nonstop ire directed at opposition to the wall, and lots of public chatter. Failure to get the whole thing done could have been assigned to the Dems or the Deep State or whatever. What she saw, and for inexplicable reasons was surprised by, was the laziest man to ever hold the office, who likes to bloviate at rallies and yell at others to get things done, but who has never in his life tirelessly done anything. ---

Two Schadenfreude-y things in this story: the Orange Menace is **really, really** pissed about the large monetary judgments in favour of E Jean Carroll, and he may not even have the liquidity to pay it because so much of his net worth, such as it is, is tied up in real estate and golf courses of mostly falling value. His biographer thinks further legal action may be required in order for Carroll to start seizing property. WARNING! WARNING!

Apparently the Trump organization really hasn’t been doing a lot of business in the last year. Other than sitting on their assets collecting money, they haven’t built, bought, or developed anything. I’m going to go out on a limb here and guess they couldn’t do anything without committing fraud. It’s not surprising that Carroll will need to go to court to collect on her judgment. I look forward to seeing Trump assets seized. Is Mar-a-Lago on the table? Technically it’s a club not a private residence, so it shouldn’t be subject to protections a personal residence might have. ---

> [@Odesio](#): > > Is Mar-a-Lago on the table? Technically it’s a club not a private residence, so it shouldn’t be subject to protections a personal residence might have. I’m absolutely positive that given he’s using it as a Private Residence and a Club (in violation of several terms) the current Florida Legislature will be happy to re-write the laws in such a way to give him the maximum protection, even if it has to be applied retroactively. ---

> [@Odesio](#): > > Technically it’s a club not a private residence, so it shouldn’t be subject to protections a personal residence might have. Ha ha! The beauty of it is, IIRC, that Trump wasn’t allowed by West Palm Beach regulations to use it as a private residence so deemed that it wasn’t, it was a fancy club for the rich. He’s screwed himself again, just like he did when he lied about the value of his assets which is what gave Carroll the huge monetary judgment against him in the first place! 😃 🤣 ---

Yep, in one of his depositions he even outlined how he’d live there if he ever wanted to make it his private residence: simply by limiting the club to a membership of one family. ---

Pretty sure that “homestead property” is off-limits from debt collection or bankruptcy forfeiture as part of Florida state law. > **[Florida Homestead Exemption | Ronald S. Webster Law Offices](https://ronwebster.com/articles/florida-homestead-exemption)** > > Florida homestead status is an important concept that appears in three different sections of the Florida State Constitution. > Under Florida law, homestead property is immune from any judgments, liens or claims of third parties. The only exemption is if a property owner affirmatively pledges his or her homestead property as security such as a mortgage or improving the property and thereby subjecting the property to the construction lien law. I am not a lawyer but I did major in Business Administration in college and one of my classes was business law, and I recall Florida coming up in particular when we got to the subject of bankruptcy. They make homes nearly untouchable there.
