Trump will arive at the courthouse shortly to face his first criminal trial and the first criminal trial ever of a former president.
TFG’s social media posts about likely witnesses will be the first order of business Tuesday when court is back in session for the historic criminal trial of a former president.
The day is scheduled to begin with a hearing about whether Trump should be held in contempt over a series of posts on Truth Social that prosecutors argue violated a gag order New York state Judge Juan Merchan issued this month prohibiting him from publicly attacking witnesses and jurors. Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg’s office is also likely to cite comments Trump made to reporters Monday, when he repeatedly called Michael Cohen, an expected key witness, a liar.
The DA’s office is seeking the maximum $1,000 fine for each of the 10 posts it says violated the order, along with an order that Trump remove the posts from his social media platform. It also wants Merchan to warn Trump any future violations risk not just additional fines but also as long as 30 days in jail.
We will post updates as we get them but, you, are viewers are welcomed and encouraged to do the same. Please make sure they are credible and from credible sources. You can also share how RW media (shitholes) have chosen to cover/spin this event for a few laughs, eyerolls, or faceplants.
