Again?
- Different case
  
  Congratulations, you two just summed up the last 7 years of trump news!
- And again
What's the over/under? How long until he breaks the gag order?
- when he goes to take a shit. That’s when he’ll do it.
  I'm pretty sure people aren't allowed on their phones in the middle of court session That's when trump shit his depends.
- you mean, he hasn't already broken it? you trying to run a wire con here or something?
- Well he seems to go on his rants after midnight so maybe 8 hours?
This is the best summary I could come up with:
Justice Engoron said that his statement should be considered a gag order forbidding any posts, emails or public remarks about members of his staff.
Mr. Trump has spent much of the first two days of the trial attacking Justice Engoron, Ms. Greenfield and Letitia James, the New York attorney general.
She accused Mr. Trump of “staggering fraud” in the way he inflated the values of his assets, as a way to gain favorable treatment from banks and insurance companies.
Federal prosecutors who have accused Mr. Trump of seeking to overturn the 2020 election have asked a judge for a gag order, citing his threatening statements.
In a criminal case against Mr. Trump in Manhattan, which stems from a 2016 hush money payment to a porn star, the judge has restricted the former president’s ability to post about some evidence.
In a pretrial ruling, Justice Engoron found that the former president was liable for fraud and dissolved the companies he uses to run his New York properties.
The original article contains 465 words, the summary contains 166 words. Saved 64%. I'm a bot and I'm open source!
Am I the only one who thought the judge has a walking assist stick (staff) and he was told not to comment on it? Lmao really seems like something that could be real.
