A proposed gag order on Trump in his federal election case is putting the judge in a tricky position
FILE - This undated photo provided by the Administrative Office of the U.S. Courts, shows U.S. District Judge Tanya Chutkan. A proposed gag order aimed at reining in Donald Trump's incendiary rhetoric puts the federal judge overseeing his election interference case in a tricky position: She must balance the need to protect the integrity of the legal proceedings against the First Amendment rights of a presidential candidate to defend himself in public. Chutkan will hear arguments in Washington on Monday over whether Trump has gone too far with remarks such as calling prosecutors a “team of thugs” and one possible witness “a gutless pig.” (Administrative Office of the U.S. Courts via AP, File)
