[pixy0stix]

It's perp walk day, even if we probably won't see it.

[Velar Fricative]

Everybody I know that works in Manhattan took a sick day today lol. I don't blame them. No way would I choose to navigate this shit.

Trump was calling for a bloodbath. I doubt it will happen, but eeep.

[pixy0stix]

CNN has the lawn chairs out again. LOL!

I hope there are surprises in the charges. I smell a surprise.

[neverfstop]

Do we have a timeline? other than his press conference back in FL this evening?

ETA ANSWER  2:15 ET he is supposed to be in court

[neverfstop]

This is so bonkers.... MTG on the ground supporting him, George Santos showed up.

Sen. Cindy Hyde-Smith (R-Miss.) announced her endorsement of Donald Trump for the 2024 Republican presidential nomination on Monday night — hours before he was set to be arraigned Tuesday.

Apparently MTG was trying to talk and kept getting drowned out by noise. Turns out all the noise was coming from whistles handed out by a 45 supporter that didn't know she was coming. 😂

There was a reporter from NBC News tweeting about it! I guess she left quickly because there was too much noise and she was blaming the mayor. Here's one of the tweets (on mobile and not sure how to embed tweets or anything, lol ETA - oh, it apparently does it on its own! Good to know):

MSNBC interviewed her in her vehicle as she was leaving. She compared Trump to Jesus with both being persecuted. *eye roll*

[cous0226]

Where is Melania lol. Didn’t see her get off the plane yesterday.

[neverfstop]

3:30 p.m. ET: District Attorney Alvin Bragg will hold a press conference

lol I saw a Tweet said something like "It's true, it's a little known fact that Jesus was arrested for paying hush money to a porn star."

[kdubs923]

And he's on the move! ABC News panned away so I didn't even see him get in the car :: sob ::

[momof2ms]

Watching the motorcade

[Pilsy]

I appreciate any play-by-play you can offer, as I’m stuck in Staples, signing up for TSA precheck, and then I have to race back to work for a 2 p.m. meeting.

I want to watch! 😭

[heat40]

At this moment he is under arrest.

[pixy0stix]

What a day to be alive.

[pixy0stix]

Apparently Secret Service is/was being interviewed re: Mar-a-Lago documents. Within the same commentary, they're saying Trump isn't a flight risk because of his Secret Service detail. So they'll let him do one crime and not another?

[pixy0stix]

Get ready for his "perp walk" aka walk down the hall.

[heat40]

When do we get to see the indictment? Do we get to see it?

Today sometime after Trump's lawyers review it. They get to review it while they're in court.

[taratru]

I'm just here for the booking photo.

[kdubs923]

ABC News is reporting that Trump was fingerprinted, but no mug shot. He's been photographed enough and a photo 'wasn't needed for future identification'.

ABC News is also saying Trumps legal team should have received the specifics of the charges while he was being processed. They're speculating that the team/Trump is reviewing on their way to the courtroom now.

[Velar Fricative]

I had no idea the mugshot could be skipped because someone was photographed enough. Darn!

[taratru]

Damnit!

[mrsslocombe]

I live just across the Brooklyn Bridge and the helicopters and sirens have been relentless all day. I'm so ready for this shit to be over.

re: mugshot. Yes, they aren't required, and they are sealed in NY State anyway, at least until you are convicted.

[cous0226]

2:15p has come and gone. I hope the charges are not what they expect and he’s shitting his pants.
