Judge Upholds Gag Order on Trump in Federal Election Subversion Case
Federal judge reinstates gag order on Trump in election subversion case, silencing former president amid ongoing criminal proceedings
The federal judge responsible for Donald Trump's criminal case on federal election subversion has reestablished the gag order she previously imposed on the former president. US District Judge Tanya Chutkan declined Trump's plea to temporarily halt the order pending his appeal. Furthermore, she lifted the temporary suspension of the gag order that had been put in place on October 20 while she deliberated on his request.
The scope of the gag order that prohibited Trump from making specific statements about the special counsel's team, potential witnesses, or court personnel has been limited. Any direct comments targeting these individuals or the special counsel and his staff were included in the restrictions. Please note that this is a developing story and will be periodically updated.
