Trump reportedly will surrender at the Fulton County jail by next Wednesday — before the August 25th deadline.
Unlike his previous three criminal cases, this time it is expected that Trump will have his mugshot taken and be fingerprinted.
This video of Trevian Kutti trying to intimidate Ruby Freeman is astonishing.

The ‘brains’ behind fake Trump electors was once a liberal Democrat
A fascinating, if disturbing, profile of Kenneth Cheseboro, who went to Harvard Law School, was close to Larry Tribe, & volunteered to help Al Gore in the 2000 Florida recount, before taking a hard turn for the right and ending up indicted in Georgia. Kenneth Chesebro, a Harvard-trained lawyer, may be the least well known of the main players in Trump’s federal and Georgia indictments.
Lawyers handling a case against him in Wisconsin have told a judge they were unable to locate him. Even the House select committee that investigated the pro-Trump attack on the Capitol did not depose him until last fall — after it had interviewed more than a thousand others and conducted public hearings — because it had trouble finding him, according to a person familiar with the situation who was not authorized to speak publicly.
Chesebro was among 19 people charged Monday in Georgia with a raft of crimes related to alleged efforts to overturn the results of the 2020 election. A 98-page indictment secured by Atlanta-area prosecutors portrays Chesebro as central not just to the convening of sham electors but also to the “strategy for disrupting and delaying the joint session of Congress on Jan. 6, 2021.” He faces seven felony charges, including conspiracy to commit forgery and conspiracy to file false documents, as well as violation of an anti-racketeering act originally aimed at dismantling organized crime groups.

“Economic analyst Steven Rattner on Monday shared a pie chart showing that all but 1% of the $3 billion in investments in former President Donald Trump’s son-in-law Jared Kushner’s private equity firm Affinity Partners came from foreign sources after he ‘spent much of his White House tenure cozying up’ to Saudi Arabia and Crown Prince Mohamed bin Salman.”

5th circuit MAGA judges banned Mifepristone b/c “FDA failed to address concerns about whether the drug is safe for women.”
Mifepristone reports 5 deaths for every 1M people who use it—a death rate of 0.0005%. Viagra has a 10X greater death rate.
So…when do MAGAs ban Viagra??
