Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg on Monday asked a judge to impose a limited gag order on former President Donald Trump, who is charged in New York with falsifying business records related to hush money he paid to adult film actress Stormy Daniels.

In their request, prosecutors cited what they called Trump’s “longstanding and perhaps singular history” of attacking people he considers to be adversaries, including those associated with his other criminal and civil cases.

The trial in Trump’s hush money case is scheduled to get underway on March 25.

      Truth Social where he is most active is owned by Trump Media and Technology. Right now SCOTUS is considering a case in court that may determine whether social media companies and websites in general can just ban people with differing opinions as a private entity or not.

    Why, not at this point? It’s not as if it would harm any of the New York State cases moving forward…

      Ensuring he can’t intimidate potential jurors and witnesses means he can’t subvert justice by being a mob boss.
