Manhattan DA Seeks Extended Trump Gag Order Amid Rising Threats

TL;DR Summary
Manhattan prosecutors have detailed new death threats linked to Donald Trump's rhetoric and agreed to lift the gag order preventing Trump from criticizing witnesses in his hush money case. Despite the threats, the DA's office maintains that protections for the safety of those involved in the case should remain. Trump, who has a history of online attacks, is allowed to criticize the case broadly but not the jury or the families of the judge and DA. The gag order changes need judicial approval, and Trump is set to be sentenced on July 11.
