When Trump needed $225 million, an unlikely partner came to the rescue: Axos Bank, an online-only financial firm headquartered in suburban San Diego.

Alfa bank is what I read. No, it’s not them. Axos is the rebranded “Bank of the Internet” I once very briefly looked into, and of course the CEO is a grotesquely overpaid republican fart huffer who spends the whole article pretending loaning Trump millions is standard fare and everyone would be crazy not to. Also he’s against the “politicization of banking” (sure) and has no opinions about Trump’s definite role in staging a coup on Jan. 6th, and why would he, he’s a simple banker loaning money to some random guy.

TIL trump sold the Washington hotel, which, good. Although the US got screwed coming and going on that one. Also, justice is a cruel joke and the unredacted Mueller report sits mouldering in Merrick’s hallway bathroom, next to some Sports Illustrateds from 2008.
