"Judge Chutkan's Ruling Exposes Trump's Flawed Gag Order Claim"

U.S. District Court Judge Tanya Chutkan's gag order on Donald Trump in his election interference case is expected to be extended by a three-judge panel, potentially strengthening her ability to enforce it. The order, which bans Trump from targeting court staff, special counsel Jack Smith, his team, or potential witnesses, was briefly lifted but quickly reimposed after Trump used the time to criticize Mark Meadows. Trump's legal team is seeking to overturn the gag order entirely. In a separate civil fraud trial, Trump's gag order was lifted, but he was fined twice for breaking it.
