Chief Keef Reacts To Trump’s Mugshot: “He Finna Run The Prison”

August 25, 2023 by newhiphopnews

Donald Trump’s highly-anticipated mugshot dropped last night, following his surrender at Fulton County Jail in Georgia. The former president was arrested on various RICO charges stemming from his alleged attempt to overturn the 2020 presidential election. Amid the reveal, countless social media users have been clowning Trump online, and several edited versions of the image have surfaced. Recently, one social media user even superimposed Gunna’s face onto the mugshot. They share the same lawyer now, so the edit was bound to happen eventually.

Now, Chief Keef has weighed in on the situation, sharing a fake image of Trump holding up a Blood sign. “Nah my boy in dat b*tch bangin on dem folks,” the rapper wrote. “I know whatever deck he on he good in the hood for sure he finna run the prison. That boy finna be eating like a MF all da Blacks finna have my boy back.” It looks like the Chicago-born performer thinks Trump would have fared quite well behind bars. Regardless, Trump was released almost immediately after his arrest on a $200K bond.

As expected, the rapper’s post has managed to stir up some debate in the comments section. Following the eagerly-awaited reveal of the coveted mugshot, Trump’s campaign began promoting some new merch featuring the image. Supporters can now get their hands on coffee mugs, t-shirts, bumper stickers and more boasting the mugshot. He also shared a “personal note” about the arrest on his website alongside the photo recently, urging people to donate to his 2024 campaign.

“Today, at the notoriously violent jail in Fulton County, Georgia, I was ARRESTED despite having committed NO CRIME,” the message begins. “But today,” it continues, “I walked into the lion’s den with one simple message on behalf of our entire movement: I WILL NEVER SURRENDER OUR MISSION TO SAVE AMERICA.” Keep an eye on HNHH for more updates on Chief Keef.

Plies Dubs Donald Trump “Inmate P01135809,” Makes Former POTUS His Twitter Avi

August 25, 2023 by newhiphopnews

Britney Spears’ divorce from Sam Asghari was the main thing on Plies’ mind when the news first broke earlier this week. Since then, however, the rapper has shifted his commentating efforts to far more pressing matters, such as Donald Trump’s arrest. This isn’t the first time in 2023 that the politician has turned himself in to police custody, however, it is the only time we’ve seen him pose for a mugshot. Upon hitting the internet on Thursday (August 24) evening, Trump’s name has been trending across various platforms, mostly due to the Grinch-like expression on his face.

“ The Look U Give When U Been Yelling ‘Lock Her Up’ & ‘The Biden Crime Family’… But U The B*tch That’s Really The Criminal!!!!” Plies quipped on Twitter when reposting Trump’s glamour shot. “ U Can Fool Everybody But God!!!! ,” he added. In another post, the Florida-born lyricist said that he plans to refer to the frequent golfer by his inmate number, rather than his government name from here on out.

Besides those funny tweets, Plies also criticized those who are still supporting Trump amid all of the legal action being taken against him. “The Only Way Some Of Y’all Will Ever Say F*ck Trump! Is If He Told Y’all To Start Taking Care Of Y’all Kids!!!!” Plies asserted last night. “At That Point, Y’all Would Say ‘F*ck Bruh A N*gga Ain’t Need Dem F*ck A** $1500 Anyway’!!!”

Ever the observer, the “I Got Motion” artist also noticed that Trump listed his height and weight as numbers that don’t seem entirely accurate. “Bruh Said His Height & Weight Was 6’3 215lbs!!! He Wouldn’t Even Tell The Truth About Dat!!!!!! ,” Plies joked.

Spanish Soccer President Refuses To Resign In Unhinged Rant

August 25, 2023 by newhiphopnews

It was believed that Luis Rubiales would resign as president of Spain’s soccer federation, RFEF, on August 25. This report, first released by ESPN on August 24, came as Rubiales continued to draw criticism for his behavior at the Women’s World Cup Final last week. He forcibly kissed midfielder Jennifer Hermoso on the mouth, grabbed his crotch in celebration while standing next to the Queen of Spain, and put striker Athenea del Castillo over his shoulder.

After originally calling his detractors “idiots”, Rubiales tendered an apology. However, calls for resignation quickly emerged. Prime Minister Pedro Sánchez called for Rubiales to resign, saying an apology was “insufficient and inadequate.” Meanwhile, the Minister for Equality Irene Montero called the kiss in particular “a form of sexual violence.” Many Spanish clubs also called for Rubiales’ resignation. Meanwhile, Hermoso released a statement with her union, saying “such acts should never go unpunished.” However, despite the ESPN report, Rubiales has doubled down and at the time of writing, remains in his position.

Rubiales Calls Kiss “Consensual”, Attacks “Fake Feminists”

“Let me tell you: I’m not going to resign. I’m not going to resign. I’m not going to resign,” Rubiales began. “I’ve come under a lot of pressure. But we live in a country of laws. Is a consensual kiss enough to remove me? I’m going to fight until the end. I hope the law is followed, and that as there’s no reason to…it won’t happen. My desire in that moment was exactly the same as if I’d have been kissing one of my daughters. No more or less…It was a spontaneous kiss, mutual, euphoric and consensual. That’s the key. In the moment that Jenni arrived, she lifted me up off the ground. We almost fell over. We hugged. I said, ‘Forget about the penalty, you’ve been fantastic, we wouldn’t have won the World Cup without you.’ She said: ‘You’re great.’ I said, ‘A kiss?’ and she said: ‘Yes.’”

Rubiales went on to say that “fake feminists” were attempting to “assassinate” him and specifically referred to the comments of Minister Montero. In response, the government is now seeking to suspend Rubiales. “The government starts today the procedure so that Mr Rubiales has to give explanations before the Sport Court and if the Sport Court agrees, I can announce that we will suspend Mr. Rubiales from his functions,” National Sports Council head Victor Francos told reporters. This is a developing story and we’ll have any updates as and when they emerge.

Lawyer Who Got Gunna Out Of Prison To Represent Donald Trump

August 24, 2023 by newhiphopnews

Donald Trump is expected to turn himself in at Fulton County jail today August 24). The former U.S. president is facing 13 felony counts surrounding his attempt to overturn the 2020 election. Trump was previously represented by Drew Findling, the “Billion Dollar Lawyer.” He’s worked with the likes of hip hop artists like Gucci Mane, Cardi B, and more. Now, however, the 77-year-old is looking to switch things up. He’s bringing attorney Steve Sadow onto his team, who famously got Gunna out of prison at the end of last year.

“I have been retained to represent President Trump in the Fulton County, Georgia case,” Sadow told the Atlanta Journal-Constitution. “The president should never have been indicted. He is innocent of all the charges brought against him.” Incidentally, this isn’t Trump’s only tie to the YSL RICO case. He was indicted on RICO charges by the same DA as Young Thug. The rapper has been behind bars since May of 2022. Gunna is famously accused of “snitching” on the YSL figurehead, making for quite the controversy in the world of hip hop.

Gunna took a plea deal last December. The rapper maintained his innocence while accepting a guilty verdict on one racketeering charge. He was given a four-year suspended sentence and was ordered to special conditions, like 500 hours of community service, amid his release. The terms of Trump’s surrender are currently unknown, but the former president is not expected to be held.

Trump has maintained his innocence, calling the investigation a “witch hunt.” “We look forward to the case being dismissed or, if necessary, an unbiased, open minded jury finding the president not guilty,” Sadow explains. “Prosecutions intended to advance or serve the ambitions and careers of political opponents of the president have no place in our justice system.”

Rudy Guliani’s Mugshot Goes Viral After Surrendering In 2020 GA Election Rig Scandal

August 24, 2023 by newhiphopnews

Several news publications have reported that former NYC Mayor Rudy Guliani was indicted along with several other defendants for allegedly rigging Georgia’s 2020 Presidential election in which Joe Biden was named the country’s new President after defeating Donald Trump in several key, swing states.

After surrendering to authorities in Georgia, Guliani was booked at the Fulton County Jail and charged with violating Georgia’s RICO Act, soliciting the violation of oath of office, making false statements and conspiracy to impersonate a public officer. His bond was set at $150K and protesters gathered outside of the Atlanta courthouse to await the arrival of Former President Donald Trump.

Guliani’s mugshot has made its rounds on the internet, including several memes that poke fun at the fact that the former New York Mayor was indicted under the same law that he created in order to dismantle organized crime families back in the 70s and 80s.

The Georgia trial for Guliani and the other defendants, including Trump, has not yet been scheduled as more indictments are expected to come before the trial begins.

TheSource.com will update this story as more details develop.

Trump Hires Gunna’s Lawyer Before Surrendering on Georgia RICO #TrumpMugShot

August 24, 2023 by newhiphopnews

Trump’s Georgia RICO case already drew comparisons to the YSL Rico case due to both being executed by Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis. But now we reach a deeper criminal link as Trump has hired a new lawyer ahead of his surrender, Steven Sadow, who recently represented Gunna and secured the rapper’s Alford plea deal.

According to WSB-TV, Trump brought in Sadow just ahead of his visit to Fulton County. Sadow spoke with ABC News about his new client.

“I have been retained to represent President Trump in the Fulton County, Georgia case,” Sadow said. “The President should never have been indicted. He is innocent of all the charges brought against him. We look forward to the case being dismissed or, if necessary, an unbiased, open-minded jury finding the President not guilty. Prosecutions intended to advance or serve the ambitions and careers of political opponents of the President have no place in our justice system.”

Facing a 41-count indictment, Trump’s bravado against charges is reportedly gone. An insider told Page Six, Trump’s indictment has “brought about a change.” The insider added, “he’s not so confident anymore. He’s not acting so cocky anymore. He’s not lashing out so much. The arrogance is gone.”

A bond of $200,000 has been set for Former President Donald Trump in a Georgia RICO indictment that also charges 18 of his business associates. According to The New York Times, Trump and the defendants must pay a cash bond upon booking in Atlanta.

As a condition of his bond, Trump cannot violate state or federal laws or communicate with his co-defendants individually. All conversations with others charged must come through legal representatives. In addition, if he was told not to intimidate witnesses or co-defendants. Additional orders included “make no direct or indirect threat of any nature against the community or to any property in the community,” which includes “posts on social media or reposts of posts made by another individual on social media.”

President Donald Trump and his 18 co-defendants will be booked into Fulton County Jail. In addition to Trump, John Eastman, Mark Meadows, and more will be booked at the jail on Rice Street. That includes Trevian Kutti, who once was a publicist for R. Kelly and Kanye West. All charged party members will be fingerprinted and have a mugshot.

“Unless somebody tells me differently, we are following our normal practices, and so it doesn’t matter your status, we’ll have a mugshot ready for you,” Fulton County Sheriff Pat Labat said.

According to The New York Times, once Trump is arraigned, a judge will be assigned who will schedule the trial.

Returning to Truth Social, his Twitter/X alternative, Trump blasted the charges by issuing, “So, the Witch Hunt continues!” Trump also attacked Willis, writing she is an out of control and very corrupt District Attorney who campaigned and raised money on, ‘I will get Trump.’”
