Hope that slimy treasonous ass boil does not get Auth Bees home cooking. Green and fuzzy bologna on stale WHITE bread (Gotta be white) with lukewarm water from down stream of meat packing corp. I feel bad for the Gen Pop exposure to diseases. Lice for all. Does he only get one layer of orange? Can he sing with the choir?
Hope he is not with J6 terrorist. He will be treated like God at a Joel Olsteen MAGA Church.

That would mean he's out until after the election for a bit
He'd have been co-opted by others of the whinerati crowd
He'd have a harder time fully monetizing the outrage

There's a 100% chance that he'll be there in time for the trial.
No pity for him. He's had this coming for years ... decades even.

White collar crime isn’t the type of crime they are concerned about. Mostly it’s poverty-stricken POC they champion locking up.

of pursuing endless appeals was a total loser. He took himself right out of the entire election season and ensured podcast silence for the next four months. Oh, and all his calls will be monitored, too.

This probably won't happen though, because he is supposed to report to prison. So, I guess he reports to the central district jail in DC and would most likely leave there in some kind of transport vehicle to his destination.

I think his podcast/radio program should be aired anyway, for the same amount of time as usual, with no sound being transmitted. Also, do federal prisoners wear collared shirts? Will he be issued two shirts in that case and be allowed to layer them? I hope he has to wear a round neck or V-neck prison-issued shirt in a bright color like yellow or orange...or green! I hope he has to get his hair cut and that he is not allowed to sport stubble.
