Trump's Gag Order Battle: A Threat to Intimidation and Kid-Gloves Treatment
TL;DR Summary
Former President Donald Trump has been issued a partial gag order by US District Judge Tanya Chutkan in the federal Jan. 6 case, preventing him from making statements criticizing prosecutors, court staff, their families, or discussing possible witnesses or testimony. However, the order does not restrict Trump from attacking the Justice Department or claiming the case is politically motivated. Trump criticized the order as unconstitutional and vowed to appeal. The judge warned of potential sanctions if the order is violated. Trump is facing multiple criminal indictments and is scheduled for trial on March 4, 2024.
