NextImg:BREAKING: Trump gets slapped with another gag order by a New York judge

Former President Trump just got slapped with another gag order by the judge in New York who is overseeing his Alvin Bragg’s ridiculous case against him.

In the gag order, Trump can’t comment or criticize anyone except for Alvin Bragg and the judge.

Here’s more from Axios:

The judge overseeing former President Trump’s New York hush money case issued a gag order Tuesday, barring him from commenting on witnesses, prosecutors, court staff and jurors.

Acting New York Supreme Court Justice Juan Merchan made the judgment ahead of the trial’s start next month in response to a request from the Manhattan district attorney’s office.

Under the gag order, Trump cannot make, or direct others to make, public statements about counsel in the case. The exception is DA Alvin Bragg, who is an elected official.

Prosecutors requested the gag order last month, citing Trump’s “longstanding history of attacking witnesses, investigators, prosecutors, judges, and others involved in legal proceedings against him.”

In granting the request, Merchan wrote: “It is without question that the imminency of the risk of harm is now paramount.”

Trump’s campaign spokesperson, Steven Cheung, said in a statement that the order prevents Trump “from engaging in core political speech, which is entitled to the highest level of protection under the First Amendment.” Cheung called it unconstitutional.

“Worst of all, the gag order violates the civil rights of over 100 million Americans who follow President Trump and have a First Amendment right to receive and listen to his speech,” Cheung continued.
