"Trump's Attacks on Judge's Daughter Prompt Calls for Expanded Gag Order and Legal Team Shake-Up"

Former President Donald Trump has been attacking the daughter of the judge overseeing his New York criminal hush money case, prompting Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg to request the court intervene. Trump's legal team argues that the existing gag order doesn't protect the judge's family, while Bragg's office contends that there is no constitutional right to target the judge's family with false claims. Republican-appointed judges have expressed concern over Trump's posts, warning that they threaten the rule of law and the effective functioning of the judiciary.

"Trump's Unprecedented Attacks on Judge and Family Amid Hush Money Case Gag Order"

Former President Donald Trump intensifies attacks on Judge Juan Merchan in the hush money case after receiving a partial gag order, accusing the judge of bias and conflict. Trump's social media posts also target the judge's daughter, continuing a pattern of lashing out at judges and the judicial system after adverse rulings. The attacks come despite the judge's ruling to refrain from making public statements about witnesses and court staff. Trump's criticism has led to threats against the judges, and the case alleges Trump falsified business records to cover up hush money payments to Stormy Daniels, which he denies.

Trump Attacks Judge's Daughter Following Gag Order in Hush Money Trial

Former President Donald Trump targeted the daughter of the judge in his upcoming hush money trial on social media, one day after a gag order was imposed limiting what he can say about the case. Trump slammed New York Supreme Court Judge Juan Merchan and called for his recusal, citing his daughter's work in progressive politics as evidence of bias. The judge's gag order restricts Trump from making certain statements about family members of any counsel or staff member, but allows him to criticize the prosecutor and speak about the judge himself.

Special Counsel Requests Gag Order on Trump Over Election Case Harassment

Federal prosecutors have requested a gag order on former President Donald Trump in his federal indictment case, citing his frequent social media attacks on individuals involved in the case. They argue that Trump's statements could intimidate witnesses, influence potential jurors, and undermine public confidence in the judicial system. The gag order would restrict Trump from making any disparaging or inflammatory remarks about witnesses or anyone involved in the proceedings. The request is expected to spark a debate over Trump's First Amendment rights, especially considering his status as a front-runner for the Republican presidential nomination.
