It's Friday, OnPolitics readers, and we're sending you this special edition of OnPolitics to share our coverage of a historic jail booking − and what happens next.

The threat of jail time is getting real for former President Donald Trump and co-defendants charged, arrested and booked in the Georgia election fraud case, USA Today politics reporter Josh Meyer writes.

👉 Some are pointing fingers, including John Eastman, who came up with the legal strategy for Trump to stay in power by using fake electors to overturn the results of the 2020 presidential election.

By all appearances, Meyer writes, expect it to get complicated, contentious and potentially ugly as the alleged co-conspirators weigh how they'll fight the case as it moves to court.
