Trump found in contempt of court for 9 gag order violations, threatened with incarceration by judge

President Donald Trump was found in contempt of court on Tuesday morning after Judge Juan Merchan determined that he was in violation of the imposed gag order. Those alleged violations were in the form of social media posts. Trump is prohibited, under Merchan's order, of "making or directing others to make public statements about known or reasonably foreseeable witnesses concerning their potential participation in the investigation or in this criminal proceeding," and from making "public statements about any prospective juror or any juror." CNN's Kaitlan Collins reported that "The judge has found Donald Trump in contempt for nine violations of the gag order, fining him $1,000 each. There’s another hearing on four more allegations of violations this Thursday."
