Gag Order on Trump's Comments in Election Subversion Case

A DC Federal appellate court considered whether to reinstate a gag order that prevented Donald Trump from making comments that targeted prosecutors, potential witnesses, and court staff in the federal elections subversion case. Trump's lawyer argued for his First Amendment right to talk about the case, while the judges seemed skeptical of the absolutist arguments. The court discussed the distinction between campaign speech and speech aimed at derailing the criminal justice process. The outcome of the case will determine the balance between First Amendment rights and protecting the integrity of the trial.
