"Judge Considers Gag Order on Trump Amidst Election Interference Case"
TL;DR Summary
A federal judge in Washington, DC, Tanya Chutkan, is considering whether to issue a gag order against former President Donald Trump following his comments against prosecutors, potential witnesses, and the judge overseeing the election subversion case. Trump's attorneys argue that the proposed order violates his First Amendment rights and is an attempt by the Biden administration to silence him. Prosecutors claim that Trump's attacks could lead to witness intimidation. If restrictions are imposed, they may be challenged in appeals, along with claims that the federal cases against Trump are being rushed.
