TL;DR Summary

Lawyers for Donald Trump and the Justice Department will argue in a federal appeals court over a gag order that Trump claims violates his constitutional rights.

Trump argues that as a presidential candidate, his speech should not be impeded, while prosecutors argue that the order is necessary to prevent witness intimidation and harassment. The judges will not issue a ruling at the hearing, but their questioning could indicate their leanings.
