“The fact that [Trump is] running a political campaign has to yield to the orderly administration of justice,” Chutkan said during the August 11 hearing. “If that means he can’t say exactly what he wants to say about witnesses in this case, that’s how it has to be.”
False. Trump has a 1st Amendment right to political speech, and if the judge tries to interfere with that, she is breaking the law. And if she didn’t want Trump being free to talk about the case, she should not have brought a political prosecution against him during a political campaign. Now everything about the case qualifies as political speech, thanks to her.
What law? There is no law, only political will.
