Trump Fires off First Tweet in Over 2 Years Since Jan. 6 Capitol Riot, Complete With His Mug Shot: ‘Never Surrender!'

Former President Donald Trump circulated his own mug shot on Thursday night in his first post to X, formerly known as Twitter, since two days after the Jan. 6, 2021 Capitol riot.

Along with the booking photo, taken hours earlier at an Atlanta jail, Trump, 77, included a link to his 2024 presidential campaign website.

Below the mug shot, read “Election interference,” and “Never surrender!”

Despite the slogan, Trump did in fact surrender to authorities at the Fulton County Jail, where he was booked on charges related to his attempts to reverse the 2020 election results in Georgia.

He made history by becoming the first US president to have his mug shot taken.
