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.

Please do not make martyrs of the idiots.
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.
It would prevent him from entering in any future election though.
And we would finally be rid of his constant antics.
Not saying this should happen of course, but US presidents have been assassinated for less …
Yeah, he’d just be replaced by another MAGA figurehead. His cult needs to be deprogrammed first. There’s a bunch of 2A “good guys with guns” thinking killing liberals is the solution, and assassinating their God-Emperor is just gonna reinforce their insane beliefs.
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.
We have an entire movement in the US that says:
I don’t think you defeat that movement by assassinating its political leader. Especially out of a belief that his crimes will never be prosecuted lawfully.
The people who would perform an assassination are also his supporters.
This site is surprisingly tolerant of advocating murder. Thought it was supposed to be the friendly alternative to reddit. Not comments in nearly every big thread pushing for whose lives to end with violence.
This is the comment I’m going to reference next time somebody accuses me of “both sidesing”.
