The limited gag order bars the former president from making statements targeting prosecutors and court personnel as well as inflammatory statements about likely witnesses.
The federal judge presiding over Donald Trump's election interference case imposed a partial gag order Monday against the former president, barring him and all other parties in the case from making statements targeting prosecutors and court personnel as well as inflammatory statements about likely witnesses.
Trump's presidential candidacy, Chutkan said,"does not give him carte blanche" to threaten or vilify"public servants simply doing their job." At Monday's hearing, Trump's attorneys vigorously denied any need to place restrictions on the former president's public comments about the case, and said the effort to do amounted to the Biden administration attempting to silence the president's chief political rival.
