Former President Donald Trump has reportedly blocked brothers and political commentators Brian and Ed Krassenstein’s podcast page on X, formerly Twitter.

The Krassensteins host KrassenCast on X discussing politics and other current events.

“Note that we have never tweeted to him with this account, at least not in the last 4 years,” wrote Ed. “Never Surrender! I guess Mr. Trump will not be appearing on our show any time soon. Darn it!

“Coward or Cognizant?”

Brian Krassenstein followed up noting the account may have been blocked by Trump for some time though the brothers had perhaps been unaware.

Following Trump’s booking at Fulton County Jail, the former President posted to X for the first time since Jan. 8, 2021, with a picture of his mugshot and a link to his website.

The photo featured the accompanying text, “ELECTION INTERFERENCE,” “NEVER SURRENDER!” and “DONALDJTRUMP.COM.”

Shortly after the former President posted to X, he followed up on his social media site Truth Social.

“I LOVE TRUTH SOCIAL,” the former President wrote. “IT IS MY HOME!!!”

The former President also shared his mugshot on his website and a message that read, “Today, at the notoriously violent jail in Fulton County, Georgia, I was ARRESTED despite having committed NO CRIME.”

“The American people know what’s going on,” the message continued. “What has taken place is a travesty of justice and ELECTION INTERFERENCE.”

“The Left wants to intimidate YOU out of voting for a political outsider who puts the American people FIRST.”

“But today, 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,” the message reads. “If you are doing poorly due to the sinister people in control of our country right now, don’t even think about donating!”

Trump’s message concludes by requesting contributions to his campaign, referring to his booking as a “dark chapter in our nation’s history.”

The former President also began selling merchandise featuring his mugshot with an accompanying message, “NEVER SURRENDER!”

Merchandise for sale includes shirts, mugs, individual beverage coolers, and bumper stickers.

Investigative journalist and ardent Trump supporter Laura Loomer shared she had spent $452 on Trump mugshot merchandise.

“I just ordered 6 Donald Trump mug shot shirts. I ordered 2 in multiple styles and colors so that I can wear the same shirt every day of the week,” the investigative journalist wrote. “I also just bought 5 Donald Trump Mug Shot coffee mugs and two packs of bumper stickers from President Trump’s website!”

“Happy to send Donald Trump $452 tonight to send a message to those who are attacking him,” she added.

Trump was booked and processed through Fulton County Jail in Georgia following his indictment by district attorney Fani Willis last week. Along with Trump, 18 others were indicted over allegations of violating the Georgia Racketeer Influenced and Corrupt Organizations Act (RICO).

The former President has not made another post to X since Thursday night.
