Judge Cannon Admonishes Jack Smith’s Prosecutor, Almost Tosses Him From Courtroom During Hearing Over Proposed Trump Gag Order

Judge Aileen Cannon Monday afternoon held a hearing on Jack Smith's proposed gag orders against President Trump.

President Trump's lawyers lashed out at Jack Smith earlier this month in response to the special counsel's second request for a gag order.

"In Jack Smith's most recent shocking display of overreach and disregard for the Constitution, the Special Counsel's Office asks the Court to enter an unconstitutional gag order as one of the release conditions on the leading candidate in the 2024 presidential election," Trump's attorneys wrote.

Last Friday night Special Counsel Jack Smith added to his gag order request against President Trump ahead of Monday's hearing.

In a Friday night filing, Jack Smith reinforced his request for a gag order against Trump by claiming the federal agents involved in Hunter Biden's care are receiving threats.

Harbach apologized to Judge Cannon after she threatened to throw him out of her courtroom: "I didn't mean to be unprofessional." President Trump's lead lawyer Todd Blanche argued that Jack Smith's gag order would have a "Chilling effect" on President Trump.

David Harbach argued that Trump isn't allowed to lie about the FBI. "Lies. Lies about the FBI coming to do violence to your family. In our opinion, that is way over the line," Harbach said according to ABC News.
