Donald Trump slapped with gag order in hush money case
A New York judge has issued Donald Trump a gag order in the hush money criminal trial. The gag order prohibits the former president from making public statements about witnesses, prosecutors, court staff and jurors. The judge granted the prosecution’s request for a gag order, citing Trump’s prior comments about him and others in the case, as well as a looming April 15 trial date. Under terms of the order, Trump can make comments about the judge or Manhattan DA but must not attack key figures in the case.
