Kevin O'Leary told CNN host Laura Coates on Thursday that "every" real estate developer is guilty of the alleged real-estate fraud that Donald Trump is found to have committed.

O'Leary explained:

So, if you're a developer and you've got a building on a block anywhere in America and it's worth, let's say, $500 million and you want to build a building right beside it, you go to the bank and say, "This building is worth $500 million. I'd like to borrow a construction finance loan against this asset, and I want you to tell me it's worth 500 million, too." The bank negotiates with you and says, "Well, no, we think it's worth $400 million," and you fight it out.

You're always trying to show your assets in the brightest light with the sunshine you can possibly determine for them. You want them to be worth the very most because you're only going to get a 40% or 50% loan-to-value, as it's called. Then you borrow that money. In the case of a $500 million asset, maybe you get $250 million, and you build a new building with a construction finance loan.

"Forget about Trump: Every single real estate developer everywhere on Earth does this," O'Leary said.

The concern, then, should be who lost money? "Nobody," according to O'Leary, because the Trump Organization paid its bank loans. Thus, if James were to be consistent, she would sue "every real estate developer" in her jurisdiction, he said.

O'Leary said he believes the case will not survive an appeal.

A Proud Boy from Kansas who, on Jan. 6, prevented the arrest of a fellow demonstrator and wielded a wooden axe handle to threaten police officers shooting pepper balls at protesters has been sentenced to over 4 years behind bars.

William Chrestman, a 51-year-old member of the Proud Boys from Olathe, Kansas, was on Friday sentenced to 55 months in prison for his involvement in the Capitol breach on Jan. 6, 2021, according to the Department of Justice (DOJ).

Mr. Chrestman in October pleaded guilty to obstruction of an official proceeding and threatening a federal officer, both felonies.

Cement production accounts for more than 7% of global carbon dioxide emissions—more than sectors like aviation, shipping, or landfills. Cement is one of the most-used materials on the planet, with about 4 billion metric tons produced annually.

Industrial-scale cement is a multifaceted climate conundrum. Making it is energy intensive: the inside of a traditional cement kiln is hotter than lava in an erupting volcano. Reaching those temperatures typically requires burning fossil fuels like coal. There's also a specific set of chemical reactions needed to turn crushed-up minerals into cement—and those reactions release carbon dioxide, the most common greenhouse gas in the atmosphere.

A man who worked as a teacher in Hawaii was sentenced to 17 years in prison for producing child pornography after he mocked and railed against conservatives online.

On the heels of accusations of plagiarism against former Harvard President Claudine Gay, four senior research scientists with faculty appointments at Harvard Medical School have been accused of manipulating data in some of their published research, prompting retractions of several articles and corrections in dozens more.

On January 2, the same day that Gay resigned as president of Harvard amid accusations that she had committed 50 separate instances of plagiarism, Sholto David, a British scientist with a doctorate in cellular and molecular biology from Newcastle University, published a detailed blog post accusing the Harvard-affiliated researchers of "data forgery."

The best things in life are free – but not anymore.

Mount Fuji in Japan has become the latest major attraction to charge tourists to visit.

The impressive mountain – which is an active volcano and the highest peak in Japan – attracts thousands of climbers every year. In 2023, 221,322 people made the ascent.

But concerns over rubbish at the UNESCO heritage site and hiker safety has seen Japanese authorities impose the new tax – the price of which is yet to be announced.

Radical climate change activists hurled soup at the Mona Lisa painting inside the Louvre Museum in Paris on Sunday.

Video shows the moment that two women approach the Mona Lisa painting and then douse Leonardo da Vinci's masterpiece with soup.

The women reportedly shouted, "What's the most important thing? Art, or right to a healthy and sustainable food?"

What these petulant fools don't know is that climate change hysteria is making the production of food less sustainable. If we are going to feed eight billion people we need fertilizers. Climate extremists are blocking the sustainable development of food.
