A federal judge on Monday issued a gag order on former President Donald Trump, limiting what he can say about special counsel Jack Smith’s federal prosecution into his alleged attempt to subvert in the 2020 presidential election.
The order restricts Trump’s ability to publicly target court personnel, potential witnesses, or the special counsel and his staff. The order did not impose restrictions on disparaging comments about Washington, DC, – where the jury will take place – or certain comments about the Justice Department at large, both of which the government requested.
“This is not about whether I like the language Mr. Trump uses,” Judge Tanya Chutkan said. “This is about language that presents a danger to the administration of justice.”
“His presidential candidacy does not give him carte blanche to vilify public servants who are simply doing their jobs,” the judge added.
His goal was to remove trust in any institution. We are not Russia, the proper way is to let the institutions to do their work if we want to have democracy. Assassinating him would only further the distrust and make him a martyr.
Who cares if he’s a martyr? That’s not leverage.
The majority of Americans care…at least they should. Jan 6th is nothing compared to what his cultists would do if he was assassinated.
Lol what would they do? Charge the fbi hq again?
What they’re already doing, but on a much larger scale…shooting up schools and gay night clubs.
