| 0:00.0 | Good morning, I'm Taylor Wilson, and this is five things you need to know Wednesday the 23rd of August, 2023. |
| 0:20.0 | Today, what to expect in Atlanta for Trump's surrender, plus a tropical storm slams Texas. |
| 0:26.0 | And we look at the consequences of hate. |
| 0:36.0 | Former president Donald Trump says he plans on surrendering tomorrow in Atlanta as he faces the fourth criminal case against him. |
| 0:44.0 | This time for charges that he conspired with others to overturn the results of the 2020 election he lost in Georgia. |
| 0:52.0 | I spoke with USA today domestic security correspondent Josh Meyer for a look at what to expect. |
| 0:58.0 | Josh, welcome back to the show. |
| 1:00.0 | Thanks, Taylor. |
| 1:01.0 | So what will actually happen when Trump surrenders tomorrow? |
| 1:04.0 | It's hard to tell with Trump. He's always very unpredictable. |
| 1:07.0 | But as far as we can tell, he's negotiated his surrender and the terms of his bail with authorities. |

| 1:37.0 | So you mentioned the mug shot. We didn't see a picture from the previous indictments. |
| 1:41.0 | Do we expect the public to have a view of this at some point? |
| 1:45.0 | We're certainly hoping so. I mean Fulton County Sheriff Pat LeBot indicated publicly that Trump will be treated no differently than any other defendant in the Atlanta County jails and that he'll have a mug shot taken. |
| 1:56.0 | And as far as we can tell, that also means that the mug shot would be released to the public at some point. |
| 2:01.0 | We don't know when the sheriff said it doesn't matter your status. |
| 2:04.0 | We have a mug shot ready for you. |
| 2:06.0 | And Josh, should we also expect his other 18 co-defendants to show up tomorrow? |
| 2:10.0 | And how might the process differ for them if at all compared with Trump? |
