Donald Trump became the first former U.S. President to have a mugshot taken, after he was briefly detained in a Georgia prison on charges of extortion and conspiracy to overturn the results of the recent presidential election.

Trump shared the photo on X, marking his first Tweet since January 2021.

Trump’s return to the platform, previously his preferred communication channel, comes after Twitter suspended his account for inciting supporters to storm the Capitol building on January 6, 2021.

The account was reactivated last November by the platform’s new owner, Elon Musk, but Trump had refrained from posting, opting to engage on his personal platform, Truth Social, instead.
