An appeals court ordered an administrative stay of a gag order on former President Donald Trump in his federal election interference case, a surprising development Friday afternoon.
The gag order was put in place by Judge Tanya Chutkan, who barred Trump from speech targeting those involved in the case on the basis that his speech put them in danger. Trump has argued that the gag order is a violation of his First Amendment rights. “I think this is a tactical retreat by these Democrat judges. They know that Jack Smith and Tanya Chutkan’s gag order is blatantly illegal, blatantly unconstitutional. They know it’s going to get vacated by the Supreme Court and so this is a tactical retreat with this temporary stay by the DC Circuit,” he said.
“It’s still going to be illegal, but it’s not going to be as blatant,” he said. “I think it’s going to be more narrow and more specific because Judge Chutkan’s order is an illegal prior restraint on Trump’s first amendment free speech rights. It is both overly broad and vague. And frankly, it’s lawless.”
