Trump's Strategic Attacks on Judges' Families Face Expanded Gag Order
TL;DR
Despite a gag order preventing attacks on the judge's daughter, Donald Trump's lawyers found a way around it by attacking her in a legal filing, claiming her work as a Democratic campaign consultant creates a conflict of interest for her father, the judge. Prosecutors have condemned Trump's attacks as dangerous and reprehensible, while the judge has previously rejected similar recusal requests and warned against frivolous delay tactics.
