"Trump's Failed Legal Maneuvers: Courts Reject Delay Tactics in Hush Money Trial"

Former President Donald Trump's attempt to delay his criminal hush money trial by challenging a gag order was swiftly rejected by a New York appeals judge. The gag order restricts Trump from speaking about likely witnesses and making certain statements about related figures. Trump's lawyers argued that he is unfairly restricted from responding to public attacks by witnesses, but the judge denied his motion for a delay. The trial is set to begin in six days, and Trump is also seeking to move the case out of Manhattan Supreme Court and to have the presiding judge recuse himself.
