Text over the first picture of the album artwork reads, "Did you know Taylor Swift wrote a whole album about the color of the Republican Party."
Andrew Gillum's back in jail after prosecutors say he missed a drug test ... and then tested positive for methamphetamine.
Baldwin County Assistant D.A. John Oxford tells TMZ ... Andrew is taking part in random drug testing known as "color code drug testing." Basically, we're told Andrew is assigned a color by the court, and he's supposed to call a hotline every day. If he calls the hotline and his color is read out, he has to report that day for a drug test.
Oxford says Andrew didn't show up for his drug test on a day his color was called ... so he was tested for drugs at his court appearance Thursday ... and it came back positive.

Donald Trump is shockingly good at golf, and he never cheats ... at least that's what Senator Eric Schmitt tells us ... and he would know, because he's played a few rounds with the President.
Charlie got the Senator from Missouri on Capitol Hill Thursday and we asked him about Trump's golf game. Schmitt says Trump is legit out on the links ... so, he's got no real reason to cheat -- even though he's been dogged by rumors of the opposite.

One thing's for sure ... that first video of McConnell out and about will be studied like the freaking Zapruder film.
Sen. Rand Paulsays his push to hold Dr. Anthony Fauci in contempt isn't about finding a fall guy for the COVID-19 pandemic ... he says Americans who lost loved ones deserve answers ... and we suggested one way to get them.
Jacob caught up with the Senate Homeland Security Committee chairman after Thursday's contempt vote and asked what he says to critics who think he's simply trying to pin the pandemic on Fauci.
Paul didn't mince words ... pointing to the more than 1 million Americans who died and saying many died alone ... before blaming Fauci for virtually all of the pandemic policies.
For Paul, it comes down to the families ... he says those who lost loved ones deserve answers ... and Jacob asked why not give Fauci immunity so he can provide those answers?!?
President Trump showed up in Las Vegas with a little something extra up top ... and now people are wondering if POTUS was sporting a wig.

As Sandra addressed the crowd, her little boy wandered toward the edge of the stage ... prompting Trump to hustle after him and steer him back before cracking ... "I don't want him to be Biden and fall off the stage!"
Dr. Anthony Fauci's Capitol Hill headaches are piling up ... the Senate Homeland Security Committee voted Thursday to hold him in contempt of Congress after he refused to answer questions last week -- pleading the Fifth 111 times.
The 8-5 party-line vote tees up a potential criminal referral to the DOJ for allegedly blowing off a congressional subpoena ... but it would need 60 votes in the full Senate, making that a long shot.
Committee Chairman Sen. Rand Paul -- who's been leading the charge against Fauci -- said Thursday the contempt vote isn't about Fauci's pandemic policies or opinions ... it's about his refusal to answer questions after Paul ordered him to do so.
