The order still allows Trump to continue criticizing the charges against him, the Justice Department, and the Biden administration.
The federal judge overseeing Donald Trump's 2020 election interference case in Washington on Sunday reimposed a narrow gag order barring him from making public comments targeting prosecutors, court staff and potential witnesses.The reinstatement of the gag order was revealed in a brief notation on the online case docket Sunday night, but the order itself was not immediately available, making it impossible to see the judge's rationale or the precise contours of the restrictions.U.S.
Trump in a social media post late Sunday acknowledged that the gag order was back in place, calling it 'NOT CONSITUTIONAL!'Trump's lawyers have said they will seek an emergency stay of the order from the U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals for the D.C. Circuit. The defense has said Trump is entitled to criticize prosecutors and 'speak truth to oppression.'Trump has denied any wrongdoing in the case.
