Trump news today: Trump arrives at Fulton County Jail to surrender in Georgia 2020 election case

Former president Donald Trump has officially been booked at the Fulton County Jail. His height is listed as 6 foot 3 inches, and his weight is reported as 215lbs.

CNN’s DJ Judd reports from outside the Fulton County Jail:

Chaos here at the Fulton County Jail here. Conservative firebrand Laura Loomer is here— she’s chasing Marjorie Taylor Greene, calling her “Marjorie Traitor Greene” for her support of Speaker Kevin McCarthy. I asked Greene what she thought of the GOP debate— she told me “terrible”

Rep Greene arrived back in Georgia earlier in the day having attended the GOP debate in Milwaukee last night.

There continues to be no love lost between Gov Ron DeSantis and members of former president Donald Trump’s inner circle.

Mr DeSantis and Mr Trump and their intermediaries have been sparring for months — and that didn’t change in the aftermath of Wednesday night’s Republican primary debate when Mr Trump’s son, Donald Trump Jr, took to social media to lambast the Florida governor.

Donald Trump has put up 10 per cent of his $200,000 Fulton County bond, CNN reports.

He worked with a local Atlanta bonding company Foster Bail Bonds LLC, which confirmed to the network over the phone that it is executing the former president’s bond that his attorneys had negotiated.

Rudy Giuliani was seen at a professional bail bond company after being released from Fulton County Jail on Wednesday.

Earlier today, lawyers for former White House chief of staff Mark Meadows were seen at a bail bond company near the jail.

Mr Trump is not expected to appear at a bail bonds shop before heading back to his summer home at his golf club in Bedminster, New Jersey.

An organiser of the “Stop the Steal” rally that preceded the Capitol riot was apparently experiencing severe FOMO (fear of missing out) after numerous Trump allies surrendered to Fulton County, Georgia authorities after their indictment by its district attorney, Fani Willis.

Amy Kremer, the organiser, wanted to be recognised alongside the other accused election tamperers, so she photoshopped her very own Fulton County mugshot, Vice reports.

If Volodymyr Zelensky ends up seeing any clips of Wednesday night’s Republican debate in Milwaukee, one could bet that he would respond by redoubling his lobbying efforts among GOP leaders in Washington.

Ukraine’s bitter struggle with Russia has now lasted far longer than boasting Kremlin officials had once predicted, thanks in part to the fierce resistance staged by the Ukrainian army and due to the steady stream of weapons and supplies fueling that army from the West.

But if the words of Republican presidential contenders this week were any indication, that metaphorical pipeline from Washington may suffer the same fate as the Nord Stream project — blown to smithereens.
