Judge Partially Lifts Trump Gag Order in Hush Money Case

Trump can now comment on witnesses and jurors but remains restricted from speaking about prosecutors and court staff until sentencing.

  • The gag order was initially imposed to protect the integrity of the trial and those involved.
  • Trump's legal team argued the order hindered his campaign speech and violated his First Amendment rights.
  • The revised order allows Trump to address witnesses and jurors but prohibits disclosing jurors' identities.
  • Trump violated the gag order multiple times during the trial, resulting in fines and threats of jail time.
  • Sentencing is scheduled for July 11, just days before the Republican National Convention.
