TL;DR Summary

A gag order placed on former President Donald Trump during his civil fraud trial in New York has been reinstated after being temporarily lifted. The order, issued by Judge Arthur Engoron, prohibits both parties from commenting on Engoron's staff. Engoron's legal clerk has received numerous threatening calls, messages, and emails, prompting the judge to argue that the order is necessary to protect his staff. Trump's lawyers have claimed the order is unconstitutional, and Trump has already been fined $15,000 for violating it.
