A spokesman for the U.S. Marshals Service says former President Donald Trump will be digitally fingerprinted and have his birthdate and Social Security number taken as part of the booking process at the federal courthouse in Miami. The spokesman said the former president will forgo a mugshot tuesday because enough photos of him already exist in the system — confirming what a person familiar with negotiations around the proceedings said earlier. The spokesman said that booking could take place before Trump appears in court or afterward, depending on when he arrives. He said authorities did not plan to immediately alert the media once Trump had arrived.

I highly recommend everyone should read the actual indictment:
https://www.scribd.com/document/651864905/US-v-Trump-Nauta-23-80101

It’s a very easy read and many pages are photos and tables. So it’s not as long as it seems.

And in fact, I would even say that it’s an entertaining read. Like a HBO show script ;)

After reading the indictment I recommend reading up on the document scandals of Biden and pence.

It will become very clear why they are not the same and why trump was indicted.

After that I recommend watching the coverage of the indictment by conservative media and the statements republican politicians make.

It will turn your stomach.

It's absolutely stunning to read. It's also stunning to see people, public figure or otherwise, defend his actions. I am unable to wrap my brain around the conservative talking points. It just makes no sense.
