Trump Claims He Has Cash to Cover New York Fraud Bond

Donald Trump has been telling the New York courts that he doesn’t have the liquidity to pay a $464 million appeal bond required to challenge a massive civil fraud penalty leveled against him by the state last month.

Every Version of James Bond, Ranked by Kill Count

James Bond will return… but the problem is we’re still not entirely sure what he’ll look like when he does.

Now, two decades after the show first premiered, the former president is begging his followers to fork over cash in order to preserve the assets on which he built his throne.  “KEEP…

How Old Was Daniel Craig When He Played James Bond?

Taking on the role of James Bond has fallen to seven separate actors over the years, but viewers largely only remember three. No offense to David Niven, George Lazenby, Roger Moore, or Timothy Dalton, who all admirably took on the 007 mantle at one point or another, but this trio of actors has elevated Bond to a level of on-screen immortality that will be difficult to top. Sean Connery is and always will be the titular Bond, but Pierce Brosnan and Daniel Craig also undeniably impressed viewers with their portrayals. They…
