BREAKING: Trump Put Under A GAG ORDER By New York Judge
New York Judge Juan Merchan has officially placed a gag order on the 45th President of the United States Donald J. Trump, forbidding him from posting about the ongoing criminal case in which District Attorney Alvin Bragg is conducting a partisan prosecution of the Republican presidential front-runner.
The judge has barred Trump from "making public evidence and other material related to a pending criminal case against him in New York," according to reporting from
CNBC. Trump is also forbidden from having access to any evidence against him except in the presence of his attorneys and is not permitted to copy any of the material.
According to the outlet, in the prosecution's motion calling for the order, assistant District Attorney Catherine McCaw wrote,
"Donald J. Trump has a longstanding and perhaps singular history of attacking witnesses, investigators, prosecutors, trial jurors, grand jurors, judges, and others involved in legal proceedings against him, putting those individuals and their families at considerable safety risk.
Merchan wrote in his order that all material provided to Trump's lawyers "shall be used solely for the purposes of preparing a defense in this matter," per
CNBC. "Any person who receives the Covered Materials shall not copy, disseminate, or disclose the Covered Materials, in any form or by any means, to any third party," the order continued in theory making any news outlet that publishes information released by Trump subject to prosecution.
Kyle Becker of the 'Relentless' podcast observed in a tweet,
"In a first in U.S. history, a presidential candidate will be forbidden to defend himself during an election campaign."
The situation lends itself now for a convincing case to be made for an election interference charge to be made against DA Bragg and Judge Merchan.
