Also, too …

The photoshopping of the mug shot is going to be LIT!

I disagree. This is a great day for the country. We’re proving that no one is above the law.

As wonderful as it’s going to be to see Trumpy’s mugshot, my biggest joy was seeing Mark Meadows. I live in his former Congressional district so I can say without any fear of contradiction “fuck that guy.” At least our current representative hasn’t gotten himself mentioned on the national news. Yet.

I think they’re letting them self-report their weight. I had my suspicions when Jenna Ellis came in at 5’7” and 130lbs.  
ETA- a few days ago, I was wondering how they would report his hair color, and strawberry blonde really is the best fit, unless you are going with light orange.

ETA- I’m not weight shaming Jenna, I just that I’m 5’7” and I have a really good idea of what 5’7” 130 pounds looks like, and it’s not her.

Oooooh, speech! Speech!

Msnbc is not covering live remarks.

And I know 6-3 and 215 and he is not that.

Anderson Cooper said basically, “Trump repeated his election lies, it’s not worth playing it for you. You’ve heard it all before.”

No, it appears that CNN won’t broadcast his tarmac remarks. “We’ve heard it all before,” said Anderson Cooper.

I’m 5’10", and about 205 pounds- and I do not look fat. There’s absolutely no way he’s only ten pounds heavier than me. I can’t believe they didn’t verify his statistics. I wonder if his lawyers got him some sort of special treatment?

I’m listening to msnbc on satellite radio, and they just laughed that the Baltimore Ravens (NFL) quarterback lists 6’3", 215 lbs.
