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.

GOP Debate: Nearly All Say They’d Support Trump If He Were Nominee and Convicted

Six out of eight Republican presidential primary candidates said Wednesday at the first GOP debate that they would support former President Donald Trump if he is the party’s nominee and he is convicted.

When debate moderator Bret Baier asked whether they would continue to endorse him as the Republican Party candidate if he was “legally convicted,” six raised their hands.

Those raising their hands were Vivek Ramaswamy, Nikki Haley, Tim Scott, Doug Burgum, Ron DeSantis, and Mike Pence.

Ramaswamy was the first to raise his hand, Haley and Scott then raised their hands at the same time, followed by Burgum. After the audience burst into cheers, DeSantis and Mike Pence raised their hands.

Only former New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie and Arkansas Gov. Asa Hutchinson did not raise their hands.

Large Crowd Gathers Outside of Fulton County Jail Awaiting Trump’s Arrival

A large crowd of Trump supporters gathered outside of the Fulton County, Georgia, jail Thursday morning awaiting the former president’s arrival.

Trump is expected to arrive at the jail on Thursday evening where he will get fingerprinted and possibly have his mug shot taken. Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis asked for the arraignment of Trump and 18 other defendants to take place in September, according to CNN. The judge overseeing the case will also allow four local news stations to have cameras in the courtroom through September 8, according to court documents, making Trump’s fourth arraignment the most opportune for the media.

The former president and current frontrunner in the Republican primary was charged by Willis last week with 13 counts, which included charges for racketeering. Loyal Trump supporters showed up to the jail hours before Trump’s expected arrival to voice their frustration with the prosecution of the sitting president’s chief political opponent.

‘Why Wouldn’t They Do the Same This Time?’: Tucker Presses Trump on Stolen Election Claims

By Breitbart. Daily Caller co-founder Tucker Carlson pressed former President Donald Trump on his repeated stolen election claims during a Wednesday interview.

Trump repeated his claim that former Vice President Mike Pence had the right to challenge the electoral votes on January 6, 2021. He reiterated the results in Georgia should have been challenged and recounted following the 2020 presidential election.

“So, you’re saying they stole it from you last time. Why wouldn’t they do the same this time?” Carlson asked.

“They’ll try. They’re going to try,” the former president replied. “And not all.”

Trump Calls Political Opponents ‘Savages,’ Says They Will Try to Steal 2024 Election

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)

Trump to Headline $100K-Per-Plate Bedminster Fundraiser for Rudy Giuliani’s Legal Defense

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.

Republican Debate: Four Shots Taken at Donald Trump During the First RNC Debate

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)
