The D.C. Circuit Court of Appeals has declined to reconsider a ruling that upholds the gag order imposed on former President Donald Trump, which limits his ability to criticize witnesses in his criminal case related to the 2020 election. The order was originally imposed by U.S. District Judge Tanya Chutkan after prosecutors cited threats to witnesses and court personnel driven by Trump\'s vitriol. Trump\'s final option to lift the gag order now rests with the Supreme Court.
