Judge Aileen Cannon Monday afternoon held a hearing on Jack Smith’s proposed gag orders against President Trump. Jack Smith was in the Fort Pierce courtroom on Monday taking notes.
After Monday’s hearing concluded, the judge did not issue a ruling on the gag order.
Earlier this month Jack Smith filed a motion seeking another gag order on Trump related to his statements on law enforcement over the Biden DOJ’s deadly force policy during the Mar-a-Lago raid.
President Trump’s lawyers lashed out at Jack Smith earlier this month in response to the special counsel’s second request for a gag order.
“In Jack Smith’s most recent shocking display of overreach and disregard for the Constitution, the Special Counsel’s Office asks the Court to enter an unconstitutional gag order as one of the release conditions on the leading candidate in the 2024 presidential election,” Trump’s attorneys wrote.
Last Friday night Special Counsel Jack Smith added to his gag order request against President Trump ahead of Monday’s hearing.
In a Friday night filing, Jack Smith reinforced his request for a gag order against Trump by claiming the federal agents involved in Hunter Biden’s care are receiving threats.
Jack Smith’s prosecutor David Harbach was so nasty and rude during Monday’s hearing on the proposed gag order that he was almost tossed out of the courtroom.
Judge Cannon admonished Harbach and warned him he would have to leave the courtroom if he couldn’t act appropriately.
"Mr. Harbach, I don’t appreciate your tone. I expect decorum in my courtroom at all times. If you cannot [act appropriately], one of your colleagues can,” Cannon said to Harbach according Julie Kelly who was inside the courtroom on Monday.

THROW THIS NONSENSE CASE OUT
Yes, she’ll only take so much of it. They’re basically thugs and will go as far as they can.
If they keep pushing their thuggery, she will probably do just that.
I hope so would be the best outcome
She seems to have taken too much already. Crap ot get off.
I’m beginning to believe that she is waiting for the Supreme Court justices to rule on the immunity deal. This way she can just say case closed. And throws the evil POS LAWFARE bums out into the street! It’s getting ridiculous that the supreme justices are taking so long to rule on the J6 and the immunity cases. It is such BS the way they are dragging their feet! C’mon!
They're trying to goad her into doing something they can use to get her removed from the case.

“Jack Smith and his prosecutors are deliberately disrespecting Judge Cannon on purpose. She’s not going to take much more of it.”
Seems that way. What options do the Fascists have if the judge throws out the case? Right now, they’re kind of stuck there, with the only option to drop it.
Sounds like he needs to be sanctioned for frivolous gibberish.
Gagging the presidential candidate leading in the polls?
It’d be great if she dismissed it and ordered them to return everything they took to Mara Lago. ;-)
Yes. She’s giving them the rope to hang themselves and they don’t realize it.
...as opposed to accidentally on purpose?
Sorry; couldn't lay off that tee'd-up ball.
President Nixon could have been convicted.
Presidents don’t have more (or less) immunity than their subordinates such as Hillary Clinton[Libya], General Eisenhower[French railway bombing], General Westmoreland[napalm], Colin Powell[testimony], J. Edgar Hoover[spying on MLK Jr.], James Comey, Eric Holder or Merrick Garland.
Presidents do enjoy a rebuttable presumption that their actions were legal.
“claiming the federal agents involved in Hunter Biden’s care are receiving threats”
Why would that happen? I’m certainly looking forward to a Biden getting locked up.
No question about it. And, they are also deliberately trying to discredit Cannon via the media.
“statements on law enforcement over the Biden DOJ’s deadly force policy during the Mar-a-Lago raid”
Excessive use of police force is a major political issue in this country and the Republican presidential candidate should be able to speak about it.
Exactly right. That’s why she’s taking a lot of crap lest she get replaced by some leftie like that ahole in NY.
“Jack Smith and his prosecutors are deliberately disrespecting Judge Cannon on purpose. She’s not going to take much more of it.”
They think they can bully and frighten a female judge to bend to their will.
