“A federal judge on Sunday reinstated the gag order in Donald Trump’s election interference case, agreeing with Special Counsel Jack Smith that the former president should remain muzzled when talking about certain people involved in his upcoming criminal trial even as he tries to appeal the speech restrictions,” The Messenger reports.
“U.S. District Court Judge Tanya Chutkan’s one-sentence order means that the original Trump’s gag order she’d imposed on the GOP’s 2024 front-runner is back in place.”
CNN: “The gag order, which was limited in scope, had prohibited Trump from making certain statements about the special counsel’s team or potential witnesses, including any comments that directly targeted court personnel, potential witnesses or the special counsel and his staff.”
