Thread Name: BS: Too Much And Not Enough (book by Mary Trump)
Subject: RE: BS: Too Much And Not Enough (Mary Trump)
This book is released on Wednesday. If you have ordered it via Kindle be sure to turn it on so it will download automatically.
The odd thing (still/so far) is that she still can't speak about it publicly while the non-disclosure agreement (NDA) is active; it seems to be generally understood that NDA's don't stand in the face of hiding a criminal enterprise. And since the family cheated Mary and her brother on the estate proceeds, the NDA should be thrown out as bogus. https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2020/jul/04/mary-trump-book-nda-fraudulent-financial-information.
Earlier this week, a judge in New York granted a temporary restraining order against Mary Trump and the publisher. But in a sign that the book is likely to come out regardless, Simon & Schuster was released from the order, after saying it had printed 75,000 copies and started to ship them to sellers, and had been unaware of the NDA.
The family that lies together hides together as Trump tries to block his niece from speaking. He can't block the writing, that cat's out of the bag.
In a statement, Ted Boutrous, a lawyer for Mary Trump, called the order in New York supreme court in Dutchess county “a prior restraint on core political speech that flatly violates the first amendment”.
The book, he said, “addresses matters of great public concern and importance about a sitting president in election year [and] should not be suppressed even for one day”.
