TL;DR

Fulton County district attorney Fani Willis, leading the criminal racketeering case against Donald Trump in Georgia, told co-defendant Harrison Floyd to "shut his mouth" in court as a judge rejected her motion to jail him over his social media posts. Willis accused Floyd of intimidating witnesses through his posts and violating his bond agreement. The judge ruled that Floyd technically violated his bond but modified it to reflect the "nuances of social media." Trump has pleaded not guilty to 41 counts in the election interference case, while three ex-Trump lawyers and a bail bondsman have pleaded guilty and accepted plea deals.
