udge Tanya Chutkan released the gag order on Trump and it is worse than we thought.
Judge Tanya Chutkan on Monday imposed a gag order on Trump in the middle of a presidential election.
Last month Special Counsel Jack Smith filed a motion to gag Trump.
“The need for the proposed order is further evidenced by a review of the defendant’s prejudicial statements in the weeks since the Government initially filed its motion on September 15,” Jack Smith’s prosecutors wrote in the court filing reviewed by this reporter.
Judge Tanya Chutkan held a hearing on Monday morning on Jack Smith’s proposed gag order and used it as an opportunity to attack Trump.
President Trump will be barred from speaking out against Special Counsel Jack Smith, court witnesses and more!
Judge Chutkan laughed at Trump’s lawyers before telling them that Trump does not have unfettered First Amendment Rights.
“Chutkan laughed after Trump’s lawyer John Lauro argued that the current conditions are working, saying she disagreed before she went through some of Trump’s statements one by one. Chutakn said Trump “doesn’t” have unfettered First Amendment rights, and that there’s “no question” that the court is entitled to draw restrictions to ensure the fair administration of justice.” NBC News reported.
According to Chutkan’s gag order, Trump cannot criticize Special Counsel Jack Smith or any of his prosecutors – even if Trump is telling the truth!
Trump cannot criticize Jack Smith or any of his prosecutors or staffers, any of the Court’s staff or supporting personnel or any ‘witnesses.’
Jack Smith can leak and lie about Trump – and threaten witnesses – but Trump cannot defend himself otherwise he will be violating Chutkan’s unconstitutional gag order!

He is prohibited from criticizing the Special Counsel.
The Special Counsel could engage in the most egregious behavior – threatening witnesses, etc. – and Trump couldn’t say a thing. pic.twitter.com/CB3mdQL1EQ

Meanwhile Jack Smith is free to leak allegations about Trump with impunity.
So just use “Judge Pig Vomit”
and other assorted Noms de Guerre.
It is well known that a court has no enforcement power of itself
************************************************************
Maybe in your state but not Texas. A State District Judge CAN find you in contempt and CAN put your ass in jail. I know. It happened to me twice over the past 40+ years. Once for not turning over tax returns to my X in a post divorce child support INCREASE fight and once for withholding child support when the X was interfering with my visitation. Both times were two days in the clink.
I will say here, as I said there:
There are four boxes of civil engagement that we the people have with our government:
1. The soap box.
2. The ballot box.
3. The jury box.
4. The box that we should pray we never have to resort to.
People like Chutkin are leaving us with precariously fewer and fewer options.
Constitution Shmonstitution.
To quote Her Heinousness: At this point, what difference does it make?
Apparently, the Constitution has no teeth.
They violate Trump's rights at every opportunity, yet NOTHING HAPPENS TO THEM.
Why are THEY not being charged for these Constitutional violations?
My opinion is that our thieving, lying, criminal, government is attempting to get away with silencing Trump, because ultimately they want to silence the public.
Then they will be able to continue with their thieving, lying, and criminality, without having to worry about the little people saying anything about it.
Did the judge or one his clerks get up and strong-arm you to jail?
Of course not, he needed a cop (executive branch) to enforce his ruling. Without the support of the executive side, the court's decisions are powerless.
This will be appealed, and reined in. This is a leading candidate for President, less than 13 months before an election, you CANNOT restrict his rights to free speech!
They think they are untouchable. “The court”, my a$$. She is out of order.
Chutkan to China, the Chinese chicken. Have a drumstick and your brain stops tickin’.
im glad it is broad
more likely to be squashed on appeal
tanya wants to put him in jail
the vaguer the better
All interested parties?-—
That would include ME!
Trump can tell DJT Jr what he wants to say, let him say the words and let WE THE PEOPLE, make signs and memes.
There’s also box number 5 which is jail. What’s in that box? Pain.
