Trump's Legal Team and Allies Clash Over Gag Order in FBI Documents Case
TL;DR Summary
Former President Trump's legal team has criticized a request by special counsel Jack Smith for a gag order to stop Trump from making false claims about FBI agents being authorized to assassinate him during a search at Mar-a-Lago. The Justice Department argues that Trump's statements violate his pretrial release conditions and pose a danger to law enforcement. Trump's lawyers contend the request is unconstitutional and have asked for sanctions against Smith's team for not conferring with them before filing the motion.
