A few hours before failed one-term, twice-impeached former president Donald Trump is arraigned, booked, fingerprinted, and photographed at the Manhattan Criminal Court, one his most devoted (and delusional) acolytes will hold rally in his honor.
Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-GA), USA Today reports, has been warned that she’d better not cause problems or New York City police will indeed arrest her.
Greene, a Republican congresswoman from Georgia, has said she will lead a “peaceful protest” at 10:30 a.m. Tuesday against the “political persecution” of Trump. She will be joined by the New York Young Republicans, a group with ties to white nationalists and beleaguered Rep. George Santos, R-N.Y.
Mayor Eric Adams has a message for one of the Republican’s most loyal supporters.
“People like Marjorie Taylor Greene, who is known to spread misinformation and hate speech, while you’re in town, be on your best behavior,” Adams said during a press conference Monday.
The location of Greene’s rally, however, is what’s drawing the most attention, not to mention laughter, according to Business Insider.
Collect Pond Park was once an open sewer that reportedly stank for nearly 200 years before it was paved over and beautified.
The park — just steps outside of the DA’s office in downtown Manhattan — wasn’t always the patch of greenery inside New York’s concrete jungle. The small area was once a pond filled with drinking water that later became a disgusting, stinky open sewer and the center of a gang-filled slum where mobsters like Lucky Luciano and Al Capone got their start.

At the turn of the century, the once-pure pond had been transformed into a communal open sewer by nearby businesses. Slaughterhouses, tanneries, and breweries dumped refuse into the pond during the start of the industrial revolution, according to the Tenement Museum.
And open sewer. What a perfect location for the trashy Ms. Greene to worship her equally disgusting Mango Mussolini.
