The Internet Celebrates Trump’s Second Arrest and Arraignment

Former president Donald Trump is in Miami for his arrest and arraignment on 37 felony counts regarding his (mis)handling of classified documents, which include violating the Espionage Act, conspiracy to obstruct justice, making false statements, and contempt of court. This will be his second arrest and arraignment this year, following his April indictment on 34 counts of falsifying business records to cover up hush money payments to porn star Stormy Daniels. In the wake of his mounting legal predicaments, Trump has taken a step back from the public eye and toned down his inflammatory and incoherent rhetoric. Just kidding! He continues to rant on Truth Social, where he has threatened the Biden family and proclaimed his innocence in all caps.

Chelsea was born and raised in New Orleans, which explains her affinity for cheesy grits and Britney Spears. An pop culture journalist since 2012, her work has appeared on Autostraddle, AfterEllen, and more. Her beats include queer popular culture, film, television, republican clownery, and the unwavering belief that 'The Long Kiss Goodnight' is the greatest movie ever made. She currently resides in sunny Los Angeles, with her husband, 2 sons, and one poorly behaved rescue dog. She is a former roller derby girl and a black belt in Judo, so she is not to be trifled with. She loves the word “Jewess” and wishes more people used it to describe her.
