The reason you have not heard of a gag order on par with the one imposed on former President Trump is that it is highly unusual. Normally, in a criminal proceeding, there are no gag orders. To the extent they exist, they typically only bind the lawyers, who are admonished to adhere to the rules of professional conduct. Rarely—as in almost never—are criminal defendants forced into a gag order on such spurious grounds as they might “vilify and implicitly encourage violence against public servants who are simply doing their jobs.”
In fact, precedent almost uniformly emphasizes familiar First Amendment principles, which limit the court’s authority, including disfavor towards “prior restraints” and “content-based restrictions” on speech.
I don't need no gag ORDER, it happens automatically every time a democrat opens his/her/its mouth.

Folks, we have entered the extra judicial phase of the communist take over. Laws do not apply the way you think they do, any longer. The legal system will now act to protect those in power.
ReplyDeleteThey will not be peacefully removed (aka we're going to have to shoot the bastards if you want your country back).
Why is that so hard for people to understand and accept? Is it not totally fucking obvious to you yet that communists HAVE TAKEN OVER THE COUNTRY?!?!?
