      I don't know - the charges would be different under federal law, one presumes. Do they need a new grand jury? Does a USADA take over? I don't know.

      I think it only applies to three of them out of the 18.

        So it seems like it’s a federal court trying them under Georgia law. So still a state crime not pardonable by the president.

        But maybe a better jury pool for them.

          How surrenders work at the troubled Fulton County jail – and why Trump’s will be different

          Kind of obvious, but President Trump will not be treated like other criminals.

          QUOTE
          Normally, those taken into custody are thoroughly searched by a jail deputy. In the past, though, some high-profiled defendants who have voluntarily surrendered were not subjected to that thorough body search, a person familiar with the process told CNN.

          Defendants also typically undergo a medical screening and receive a pre-trial consultation to determine whether they can sign out on their own recognizance, although it’s not clear whether those same steps would be taken with Trump and other high-profile defendants.

          For an average defendant, the booking process can take hours, much of which can be spent waiting around for their turn to be booked.

                              My bad. I saw a video of him speaking afterward. He was wearing his traditional red tie.

                              Not a real mugshot.

                                      As defendants in the far-reaching indictment begin to surrender to authorities ahead of the Friday deadline, "Shafer's position signals that some may be poised to turn on the former president," Axios reports.

                                        I would be curious to see how he was pressured to falsely certify Trump's victory.

                                          I would like to read some speculative fiction about what would have happened if Trump managed to get these people to file fraudulent paperwork. I still don’t suspect any of it leads to him being President. I’m just curious which other checks and balances would have come into play.

                                          Education is extremely important.
