Judge Limits Trump's Social Media Use in Criminal Case

A protective order has been imposed in the Manhattan district attorney's criminal case against former President Donald Trump to prevent evidence shared by the DA's office from being shared on the internet. Trump pleaded not guilty last month to 34 felony counts of falsifying business records in connection to an "illegal scheme" to influence the 2016 presidential election. The order prohibits the copying, disseminating, or disclosing of covered materials to any third party, including social media platforms, without prior approval from the court. The order does not stop Trump from speaking generally about the case on the campaign trail.
