I’m not going to bother getting my hopes up about Trump or his family going to jail but if nothing else this will hopefully make it a lot harder for those crooks to find people willing to loan them money.

At least when people do loan him money, it will be impossible to make it look like any kind of transaction other than a payment for services.

I do like this bit though
“their February 9, 2022 letter confirms that after conducting a subsequent review of all prior statements of financial condition, Mazars’ work was performed in accordance with all applicable accounting standards and principles and that such statements of financial condition do not contain any material discrepancies,” a Trump Organization spokesperson said Monday. “This confirmation effectively renders the investigations by the DA and AG moot.”"
Nice try, but I am pretty sure that the letter says “We (Mazar’s) did everything right, but the information that our client provided us as the basis of that work cannot be trusted and is almost certainly wrong”

for anyone wanting a different take on how we’ve ended up at this place in history i would suggest the six part series by adam curtis from last year, can’t get you out of my head. this is the link to the first of six parts-- Part 1 Can't Get You Out of My Head 2021 Bloodshed on Wolf Mountain - YouTube
i don’t necessarily agree with all of curtis’ left libertarian views but he has an extraordinary command of the subjects he discusses and his manner of presentation speaks to me.

This may be small potatoes compared to some of the other grift and corruption that took place in the last administration but it still gets me mad because at the same time this asshole was abusing his power I was forced to sell off company stock that was in my retirement portfolio because the entertainment company I work for has some extremely minor dealings with the department of the interior, where my wife works part-time as a geophysicist. (The implication being that she could somehow single-handedly grant my company some kind of unfair advantage that would increase the stock price.)
