Judge Warns Trump of Sanctions for Violating Gag Order in NY Fraud Trial

Former President Donald Trump was fined $10,000 by a judge in his New York fraud trial for violating a gag order. The judge called Trump to the stand and found him "not credible" when he denied breaking the limited gag order. Trump had made comments to reporters during a break, criticizing the trial's law clerk and the judge. The judge ordered the fine on top of a previous $5,000 fine for a similar offense. Trump's lawyers argued that he was referring to Michael Cohen, not the law clerk, but the judge rejected this explanation.
