NEW YOR JUDGE WARNS FORMER PRESIDENT TRUMP OF VIOLATING THE GAG ORDER

Former U.S. President Donald Trump, aged 77, has been found in contempt of court by Judge Juan Merchan for repeatedly violating a partial gag order. This order aims to prevent Trump from using his extensive media platform to attack witnesses and court members and influence the trial. In addition to the fines already imposed, Trump now faces the possibility of jail time for any future violations. This trial marks the first criminal prosecution of a former U.S. president. It is one of four pending cases, including a long-delayed trial on charges that Trump attempted to overturn the results of the 2020 election, which he lost to Biden.
