A pro-Trump Republican congressman charged with assaulting a reporter during a live television interview plans to “work out” while he’s locked up. Rep. David Kustoff, who was arrested and charged last week for misdemeanor assault after video of him attacking a journalist went viral, said in an email that his time behind bars will be spent learning about prison workouts and trying to get better access to them once released.
The “federal prisons” is a prison that has been in the news recently because of a Trump supporter who plans to “work out a lot” in jail for storming Capitol.

One woman arrested on January 6 for storming the US Capitol expects to spend her time in jail doing yoga, consuming protein shakes, and losing weight.
Jenna Ryan stated in a TikTok video that the 60 days she’ll spend in prison next year would be “so worth it” if she can shed 30 pounds (13.6 kg) during her time there.
The 50-year-old, who was convicted in November, got one of the heaviest sentences handed out among the hundreds of rioters facing charges. She had admitted to a misdemeanor charge of marching, protesting, or picketing in the Capitol building.
‘For better or worse, you’ve become one of the faces of January 6,’ US District Judge Christopher Cooper told her at the time.

Ryan made global news when she was flown out to Washington, DC on a date to attend a rally by former President Donald Trump, and she chronicled the whole journey on social media. ‘Definitely not going to prison,’ she memorably tweeted afterwards. Sorry, I have blonde hair, fair complexion, a good career, and a bright future; I’m not going to prison.’
During her sentence, Judge Cooper underlined her apparent lack of remorse for her role in the tragic violence, noting that she knew it wasn’t a peaceful rally since she had seen images of the incident on her hotel television.
Ryan subsequently wrote to the court, stating that she does not believe she is “immune to punishment owing to my looks and social rank.”
On Sunday, Ryan informed her TikTok audience that she must report to jail during the first week of January while standing in front of a mirror in work out clothing.

‘The only positive aspect of having to go to jail that I can see is that I’ll be able to work out a lot and do a lot of yoga and detox,’ she added.
Ryan achieved her ultimate fitness objective of losing 30 pounds (13.6kg) throughout her two-month incarceration. She said that she probably won’t be eating much since ‘the cuisine is bad, and there’s no food.’
The Texas lady expressed her want for protein smoothies or protein bars, noting that she did not want to consume the “green baloney” served in jails.
‘It will be worth going to jail for 60 days if I can achieve it.’ ‘It will be totally worth it if I can drop thirty pounds,’ she remarked.

Despite her intentions of achieving her “target weight” while incarcerated, Ryan said in a subsequent video that she does not believe it would be simple.
‘I have a great life on the other side of this,’ she said Tuesday. ‘It’s just that I have to go through hell first.’
Ryan described herself as a “really optimistic person” who “tries to see the bright side of things,” which is why she revealed her workout intentions.
Reading, Bible reading, and self-improvement are among her other January goals.
‘That’s what I want to do: read books, exercise, and grow as a person,’ she added. ‘Really concentrate on myself and try to make the most of a bad circumstance.’
