The Spin

It's hard to understand why the SCOUTS has dismissed this motion, especially because the court has stopped short of explaining its reasoning. The gag order imposed upon Trump in the hush money case clearly violates the First Amendment rights of every American to receive information and ideas, as established in Stanley v. Georgia.

The SCOTUS tookmade the right — and most obvious — decision by rejecting Missouri's lawsuit against the state of New York withregarding regard to Trump's hush money case. It's completely absurd to claim that the gag orders placed on the former president and his impending sentence amount to election interference.

Metaculus Prediction

There's a 1% chance that before November 5th, 2024, Donald Trump will successfully appeal any felony conviction in the "hush money" case, according to the Metaculus prediction community.
