Jon Gosselin’s poor decisions and lack of brain power led to his TLC lawsuit debacle, says his ex-pal and business partner Michael Lohan.

In an exclusive new video interview with RadarOnline.com, Lohan and new girlfriend Kate Major revealed that Jon is now desperate for money and also said they believed he staged the break-in at his apartment.

Jon and Kate Gosselin Finally Sell Starter Home

TLC announced Wednesday they settled their breach of contract lawsuit against the former Jon & Kate Plus 8 star and they are keeping him under contract. Sources told RadarOnline.com exclusively that the network has no plans to put Jon back on TV.

“If Jon was smart... and I don’t think he is smart, he would listen to what TLC tells him to do now,” Major, 27, told RadarOnline.com when asked what she thought the end of his lawsuit with the cable network. “I think once Jon was deposed, from what I’ve heard, settling was his last option. I don’t think he had any other choice.”

Jon was deposed by TLC’s law firm Williams & Connolly just weeks before the settlement.

Added Lohan, “I don’t know what the settlement price was, but I would imagine that whatever the number was, Jon won’t be able to pay it back. He’ll probably be paying collection on it for the rest of his life.”

According to Major, Jon is now  “desperate” for money.

And when discussing the alleged ransacking of his apartment by ex-girlfriend Hailey Glassman, both Major and Lohan expressed their opinions that Jon staged the event.

“There’s no doubt in my mind that Jon did that,” Major told RadarOnline.com. “If he did stage that break-in, which I think he did, it’s just another pathetic way for him to get a lawsuit and get money out of it. Jon needs to grow up. One day he’ll get what’s coming to him.”

“It takes a dimwit like Jon to actually try to pull off a caper like that,” Lohan chimed in.

So are Kate and Jon’s other ex, Hailey Glassman, really buddies? The two were photographed at a boxing match in Philadelphia in January and happily converse back and forth over Twitter, comparing notes on Jon. Major says she and Hailey have become “good friends” and share a lot in common.

“We let bygones be bygones,” she said. “We’ve been tweeting and I think she’s a hilarious girl and hopefully she’ll join us in some upcoming projects.”

He screwed himself out of his home, wife and family, job, money and a good future. Was it worth the arse you tagged Jon? Now you're just another fat, balding, pinky sized pp has been. He'll be crawling back to Kate soon.

Jon was the one stupid enough to get himself involved Lohan and Lohan's friend Heller. Birds of a feather as they say.

I believe there's a RADAR story out there with M. Lohan discussing how TLC is screwing Jon Gosselin. Now he's changed his tune I guess. Classy!

Conspiracy! Lohan said it himself when they were yacking about Jon staging the ransacked apt "We should have thought about that our self." So what was REALLY real in the Jon G storyline this past year, folks?

What proved that Jon G was a dimwit was him getting involved with any of these people to begin with.
