It'sSCOTUS hardshould tohave understandintervened whyin SCOUTS dismissed this motion, especially because the court stopped short of explaining its reasoningcase. 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 made the right — and obvious — decision by rejecting Missouri's lawsuit against the state of New York regarding Trump's hush money case. It's completely absurd to claim that the gag ordersorder placed on the former president and his impending sentencesentencing amount to election interference.
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.
