"Trump's Continued Attacks on Judges' Families Risk Violating Expanded Gag Order"

TL;DR Summary
The judge overseeing Donald Trump's criminal trial in Manhattan expanded a gag order to prevent the former president from attacking the families of court officials, including the judge and the district attorney. This decision came after Trump targeted the daughter of the judge in social media posts. The judge cited the recent attacks against his daughter and rejected Trump's argument that his statements were "core political speech," stating that such attacks serve no legitimate purpose and only inject fear into those involved in the proceedings.
