Prosecutors in the federal classified documents case have requested a new gag order against Donald Trump to restrict his comments about agents involved in a search of Mar-a-Lago in 2022. The hearing for this proposed gag order is scheduled for 3 p.m. ET today before district Judge Aileen Cannon.
The prosecutors argue that Trump's false claims about narrowly escaping death from federal agents during the search could incite threats and harassment against the agents. They cited instances of violence that they believe could be triggered by Trump's statements, including an armed attack on an FBI office following Trump's remarks on Truth Social and a threatening call made to an FBI agent associated with the Hunter Biden case.
