After TFG falsely claimed “Biden’s Justice Department“ authorized the FBI to use deadly (lethal) force during the legal and warranted search on Mar a Lago for classified documents that TFG took when we he left the White House in disgrace, Special Counsel Jack Smith has a filed a motion ” to modify the conditions of pretrial release to impose a limited gag order.” Special Counsel Smith rightfully claims that TFG’s reckless and dangerous rhetoric puts FBI agents, police officers and their families lives in danger.
From the Motion:
The Government moves to modify defendant Donald J. Trump’s conditions of release, to
make clear that he may not make statements that pose a significant, imminent, and foreseeable
danger to law enforcement agents participating in the investigation and prosecution of this case.1
The Government’s request is necessary because of several intentionally false and inflammatory
statements recently made by Trump that distort the circumstances under which the Federal Bureau of Investigation planned and executed the search warrant at Mar-a-Lago. Those statements create a grossly misleading impression about the intentions and conduct of federal law enforcement agents—falsely suggesting that they were complicit in a plot to assassinate him—and expose those agents, some of whom will be witnesses at trial, to the risk of threats, violence, and harassment. The Court has an “independent obligation to protect the integrity of this judicial proceeding,” ECF No. 101, and should take steps immediately to halt this dangerous campaign to smear law enforcement.
