TL;DR Summary

Federal prosecutors are pushing to reinstate a gag order on former President Donald Trump after he violated the order multiple times by making harmful and prejudicial attacks on individuals involved in his federal election case. The gag order was temporarily lifted by a federal judge, but prosecutors argue that it should be kept in place as the appeals court considers Trump's request. Prosecutors claim that Trump's remarks have threatened the integrity of the proceedings and put trial participants at risk. The American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU) has released a proposed friend-of-the-court brief supporting Trump's right to speak publicly about the case, arguing that the gag order is impermissibly vague and broad.
