Not sure why he's complaining, he's catching up on his sleep
How are these accusations against the judge not actionable? And does he even understand what the word exoneration means? I thought that's what he wanted!

Surely that is a contempt.

"Mr Trump has also blasted Ms Merchan on social media, which caused Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg to request an expansion of the former president's gag order to include the judge's family.

Justice Merchan approved the request. The order had already banned comments about witnesses, jurors, court staff, lawyers for the prosecution, and their families. It does not bar Mr Trump from speaking about the judge or Mr Bragg, who is leading the prosecution of the case."

Not in scope of the order.

Maybe not, but surely Merchan could launch a separate action outwith what's going on here? trump is clearly trying to provoke a reaction that he knows would look bad for Merchan and presumably that's why Merchan isn't biting. Still bloody annoying.

I believe that the judge and prosecutor were deliberately excluded to prevent Trump from claiming his freeze peach has been impinged.

However jurors and families are off limits as they should be, trump hates this as he can't intimifate Bragg or Merchan otherwise.

Probably best to allow Trump to freely post, don't give him more ammo to say he now being repressed for commenting about the judge.

Or next time, stick him in prison in a Faraday cage.

He's probably pissed off because Merchan said he could go to Barron's graduation, so now he has to go to one of his childrens graduation biggrin

Playing the victim got outsmarted by the Judge
I doubt he’ll go to Barron’s graduation, he’ll be to busy playing golf.

Comments however may be taken into account in the judges ruling when he's found guilty?

Let's face it Trump wants the harshest punishment possible.

has his $175m bond issue been sorted yet?
Can you hear that tinny sound? It's a can being kicked right down the road:

https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2024/apr/22/tr...
Its not 'kicked down the road' it was modified to the Judge's acceptance.

Two key items were that the Bond has now been filed in cash rather than stocks, and that the Bond company has agreed that they are liable to New York Court jurisdiction, whereas before they were claiming they were exempt.

What is the point in fining him $9k ?
I think he’d happily pay that for a few rants and jury intimidation.
Or are there other consequences if he continues to break the gag order ?

ETA …. Ah , just saw the post above thumbup
Maximum imposable fine for the first charges is $1000 per offence, its already written into NY Law, its not a special condition for Trump.

surely the question is who's pumping money into it to make the price go up again?
