U.S. District Judge Tanya Chutkan on Monday issued a limited gag order preventing former President Donald Trump from attacking special counsel Jack Smith, his family, court staff or possible witnesses.
Chutkan's ruling came after an hours-long hearing, with Trump attorney John Lauro arguing that the order was unnecessary.
"It's possible to craft a narrowly tailored order to serve those interests," she explained.
