Is this a prayer chain for a DeSantis nomination or can pro-Constitution, pro-Trump, anti-Totalitarian folks also participate?

Asking for a friend.

Judge Approves Cameras in Courtroom For Trump Arraignment
by Cristina Laila Aug. 24, 2023 12:25 pm

This is Joe Biden’s 2024 campaign since his administration is one big failure.

Joe Biden has nothing to campaign on so he’s hiding out doing spin and Pilates classes in Lake Tahoe while his DOJ and Marxist DAs lock up his main political rival.

Trump will turn himself into authorities on Thursday after Fulton County DA Fani Willis charged him with RICO and conspiracy for daring to challenge the 2020 election.

Fulton County Superior Court Judge Scott McAfee allowed cameras in the courtroom for Trump’s arraignment in Fulton County.

WSB-TV, WAGA TV, WANF TV and WXIA TV will be in the courtroom with cameras.

Trump’s arraignment will be broadcast on live television.

Trump will be processed and booked. He will also likely have his mugshot taken. His bond was set at $200,000.

Trump ally Harrison Floyd remains in Georgia jail after not negotiating bond terms before surrender

Harrison Floyd, the former executive director of Black Voices for Trump, is currently sitting in the Fulton County Jail in Atlanta, Georgia after turning himself in on charges in connection to District Attorney Fani Willis' investigation into alleged efforts to overturn the 2020 election.

Floyd is the only defendant who did not negotiate bond terms before surrendering. All other 18 defendants, including former President Donald Trump, have now reached bond terms. 11 have surrendered -- including Floyd -- the other 10 have been released.

Floyd was allegedly involved in efforts to pressure poll workers into promoting fraud allegations, according to the Atlanta Journal-Constitution.

Trump is expected to turn himself in later this evening.

What happens after an indictment?

Former President Donald Trump has been indicted for the fourth time this year, with 13 charges against him for alleged efforts to overturn election results in the state of Georgia during the 2020 presidential election.

There are 18 others who have been indicted alongside Trump. Now that the indictment has happened, the next step of the process will be an arraignment.

During an arraignment, the federal criminal defendants appear in court. While in court, the charges are read and the defendant is asked to enter a “guilty” or “not guilty” plea.

After an arraignment, there are several steps that come before a trial.

The prosecution and defense will come together and discuss the evidence and witnesses that will be involved in the case. Before a trial occurs, a plea bargain is discussed, where a defendant can plead guilty to a lesser charge. If there is no plea bargain reached, this is when a case will move to trial.

During a trial, a jury will be selected, witnesses and evidence will be displayed from both sides and eventually a verdict will be reached. If the defendant is found guilty, then sentencing will occur.

Might have been interesting if Trump had 1) opposed any bond on the ground that he's clearly not going to flee the country, and then 2) refuse to post bond when it was imposed anyway.

That would have been a ballsy move on his part to put some pressure on the court.  You'd have a former President with Secret Service protection being held in jail, and a lot of supporters getting very pissed off.

That's the kind of thing you do to challenge the system.  A true power move that I personally would have respected.
