TL;DR Summary

Manhattan prosecutors have requested that a judge maintain key elements of a gag order on Donald Trump, citing numerous threats against officials involved in his case. The gag order, which restricts Trump from attacking witnesses, jurors, and court staff, was imposed before his trial began in April. Despite his conviction on 34 felony counts, Trump's lawyers have sought to lift the order. Prosecutors argue that the threats, including bomb threats and the disclosure of personal addresses, justify keeping the order in place. Trump is scheduled for sentencing on July 11.
