Former President Donald Trump will surrender and be processed at the Fulton County Jail Thursday afternoon on charges stemming from the fourth indictment against him in five months.
Trump announced on Monday he would travel to Atlanta, Georgia, for his surrender charges, alleging he, lawyers, and aides engaged in multiple crimes, including racketeering, in their challenge of the 2020 election results. His bond has been set at $200,000.
According to the Atlanta Journal-Constitution, the surrender will take place this afternoon. (Read more from “Donald Trump to Surrender, Be Arrested in Fulton County, Georgia” HERE)

The number of sex change-related operations nationwide nearly tripled heading into the COVID-19 pandemic, a study has found.
Five researchers published the study Wednesday in JAMA Network Open. They analyzed the national inpatient and ambulatory data of 48,019 transgender people who underwent breast or chest operations, genital reconstruction and facial or other cosmetic surgeries at hospitals between 2016 and 2020.
Researchers found the procedures increased annually from 2016 to 2019, nearly tripling from 4,552 to a peak of 13,011. They then fell slightly to 12,818 in 2020 as hospitals discouraged nonessential medical treatments during pandemic lockdowns.
“Like many prior studies, we noted a decrease in the number of procedures performed in 2020, likely reflective of the COVID-19 pandemic,” the researchers wrote. “However, the decline in the number of procedures performed between 2019 and 2020 was relatively modest, particularly as these procedures are largely elective.”
The surgeries accelerated at a faster rate than in previous years, the researchers found. (Read more from “Gender-Transition Surgeries in the U.S. Nearly Tripled Before Pandemic Dip, Study Finds” HERE)

Former President Donald Trump called those pushing criminal cases against him “savages” and warned about “a level of hatred I’ve never seen” in the country, in an interview posted Wednesday just before the other major GOP presidential candidates debated for the first time.
He also said he expects opponents will try to steal the 2024 election from him, or any other Republican who emerges from the primary.
“They’re going to try,” he told Tucker Carlson in an 45-minute interview on X, formerly Twitter.
The host at one point ticked off the impeachments and criminal cases against Mr. Trump, and wondered whether the former president’s opponents will now “try to kill you.”
“They’re savage animals. They are people that are sick, really sick,” Mr. Trump said. (Read more from “Trump Calls Political Opponents ‘Savages,’ Says They Will Try to Steal 2024 Election” HERE)

The video of Joe Biden, as Barack Obama’s vice president, stunningly relating how he used a billion dollars of American tax money to threaten Ukrainian officials and coerce them into firing a prosecutor looking into Burisma, which was paying his son Hunter $1 million a year, continues to stun.
In fact, on a trip to Ukraine, he told officials to can prosecutor Viktor Shokin, or lose out on the American aid. He gave them only a few hours to comply, and Shokin was fired.
Biden said, “I said we’re not going to give you the billion dollars. They said ‘you can’t do that, you have no authority, you’re not the president.’ I said call [President Obama], I told you you’re not getting a billion dollars.” He said he was leaving in six hours, and “If the prosecutor’s not fired, you’re not getting the money. Well son of a b—-, he got fired.”
Now a new investigative report by John Solomon at Just the News traces how just a few weeks before State, Treasury and Justice Department officials had Shokin was making good progress on anti-corruption reforms so the $1 billion loan guarantee could be made available. Shokin even got a letter to that effect. . .
Memos drafted in the Biden camp at that time abruptly turned America’s direction, stating, to Ukraine, “There is wide agreement that anti-corruption must be at the top of this list, and that reforms must include an overhaul of the Prosecutor General’s Office, including removal of Prosecutor General Shokin, who is widely regarded as an obstacle to fighting corruption, if not a source of the problem.” (Read more from “Startling Report Reveals Agendas Joe, Hunter Biden Had for Ukraine” HERE)

Former President Donald Trump will headline a $100,000-a-plate dinner for his Georgia election fraud co-defendant Rudy Giuliani next month, aimed at raising money for the former mayor’s mounting legal bills.
An invite to the Sept. 7 event at the 77-year-old former president’s Bedminster, N.J., country club notes the six-figure admission price to an evening “round table with President Trump and Mayor Giuliani” to be followed by “dinner with America’s Mayor.”
The event is being organized by the Giuliani Defense political action committee, according to CNBC.
The fundraiser is expected to be attended by at least a dozen guests and raise nearly $1 million, the outlet reported Wednesday.
Giuliani, 79, reportedly has racked up nearly $3 million in legal expenses related to criminal investigations, private lawsuits and legal disciplinary proceedings as a consequence of his efforts to keep Trump in office after his 2020 election loss to Joe Biden, according to the New York Times.

Ellis became the ninth of 19 defendants to surrender after District Attorney Fani Willis’s sweeping indictment last week, and Trump has said he will surrender Thursday.
Along with Ellis’s surrender came a mug shot of her with a cheery smile, wearing rose-colored lipstick with a black blazer jacket.
Other mug shots of defendants were released on Wednesday, including former Trump attorneys Sidney Powell and Rudy Giuliani. (Read more from “Rico Suave: Mugs of MAGA Released as Trump Cronies All Surrender in Fulton County” HERE)

Without physically being onstage, former President Donald Trump still took significant hits from his eight opponents at the Republican National Committee’s first debate. . .
Several candidates praised former Vice President Mike Pence for certifying the 2020 election results — an indirect hit at Trump, who continues to push debunked claims that the election was stolen from him.
Former Govs. Chris Christie and Asa Hutchinson took stronger hits at Trump for alleged criminal misconduct, while DeSantis, former South Carolina Gov. Nikki Haley, and Gov. Doug Burgum (R-ND) spoke about the weaponization of the Justice Department.
DeSantis said people needed to move forward away from Jan. 6, 2021, and focus on Jan. 20, 2025, “when the next president is going to take off.” . . .
DeSantis hit partly at the Trump administration for the federal government’s response to the COVID-19 pandemic, which resulted in shutdowns across the country and a huge hit to the economy. (Read more from “Republican Debate: Four Shots Taken at Donald Trump During the First RNC Debate” HERE)

With former President Donald Trump skipping Wednesday night’s Republican presidential debate, the eight candidates who took the stage had a chance to shine and make up a 40-point polling gap on the 77-year-old front-runner.
Unfortunately for them, experts consulted by The Post agreed, nobody did enough in Milwaukee to change the dynamics of the race.
“All of the candidates were looking for a breakout moment and didn’t get it,” said former Westchester County Executive and Republican gubernatorial candidate Rob Astorino.
“Donald Trump wasn’t there,” he added. “That’s like watching the Kansas City Chiefs without Patrick Mahomes. The star wasn’t there.”
The candidate who came into the night with the highest expectations was Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis, who is polling a solid — if distant — second behind Trump in most national surveys.

Eight candidates hit the stage for the first GOP presidential debate Wednesday night in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, opening up the chance to make an impact in a crowded field led by former President Donald Trump.
The debate, moderated by Fox News’ Bret Baier and Martha MacCallum, focused on the economy, climate change, abortion, COVID-19 lockdowns, gun control, Trump’s upcoming trials, Ukraine funding, China, the southern border, education, presidential age and UFO encounters. Trump — the leading candidate in primary polls — chose to skip out on the debate, and sat down for an interview with Daily Caller co-founder Tucker Carlson instead.
The candidates frequently sparred with entrepreneur Vivek Ramaswamy, who painted himself as the young, anti-establishment choice.
Former U.N. Ambassador Nikki Haley and former Vice President Mike Pence were more prominent on the debate stage than expected, and the two traded blows with Ramaswamy on his Ukraine funding stance and age, respectively. Former New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie also battled for the spotlight, criticizing Trump for having conduct which he described as “beneath the office of President of the United States.”
On multiple occasions, the candidates talked over each other to attack or issue rebuttals, causing the moderators to plead for order. (Read more from “First GOP Debate Sees Unlikely Winners as Trump Sits Down With Tucker” HERE)

By Breitbart. Presidential candidate Vivek Ramaswamy condemned his rivals at Wednesday’s Republican primary debate for visiting Ukraine in solidarity against the Russian invasion, accusing them of placing “their pope Zelensky” over American lives.
Ramaswamy’s remarks were directed at former Vice President Mike Pence and former New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie, who both recently visited Kyiv and spoke with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky. Christie offered Zelensky a sheet of paper with lyrics handwritten by New Jersey rock legend Jon Bon Jovi; Pence shared the day of his visit to Zelensky with climate change activist Greta Thunberg.
During the debate, hosted by Fox News and streamed on the video hosting site Rumble, moderators asked the candidates who among them would cut funding to Ukraine’s war effort, which currently surpasses $110 billion since Russian strongman Vladimir Putin launched a full-scale invasion of the country to oust Zelensky in February 2022. Ramaswamy, who has begun surpassing Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis in recent polling but still lags significantly behind former President Donald Trump, enthusiastically raised his hand.
“I think that this is disastrous that we are protecting against an invasion against somebody else’s border when we should use those same military resources to prevent across [sic] the invasion of our own southern border,” Ramaswamy explained. “We are driving Russia further into China’s hands. The Russia-China alliance is the single greatest threat we face.”
“And I find it offensive that we have professional politicians on this stage that will make a pilgrimage to Kyiv to their pope Zelensky without doing the same thing for people in Maui, or the south side of Chicago, or Kensington,” he continued. “I think we have to put the interests of Americans first, secure our own border before somebody else’s, and the reality is this is how we project strength, by making America strong at home.” (Read more from “GOP Debate: Vivek Ramaswamy Refers to Zelensky as Pence, Christie’s ‘Pope’” HERE)

Vivek Ramaswamy: Nikki Haley’s Ukraine Rhetoric Would Put Her on Board of Defense Contracting Companies
By Breitbart. Republican presidential candidate Vivek Ramaswamy attacked fellow candidate Nikki Haley during Wednesday’s GOP presidential debate, saying her rhetoric will make her a friend of the military-industrial complex.
Haley delivered an articulate defense for the need to provide Ukraine with aid, saying the country is the “first line of defense” against Russian leader Vladimir Putin. She also said that NATO countries such as Poland could be at risk because of Russia’s incursion into Ukraine.
“I wish you well in your future career on the board of Lockheed & Raytheon,” Ramaswamy said.
Haley then exclaimed, “I’m not on the boards of Lockheed and Raytheon!”
Breitbart News’s John Binder reported that former United Nations Ambassador Haley raked in more than $256,000 as a member of Boeing’s Board of Directors during her tenure.
