Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg asked a judge to hold Donald Trump in criminal contempt and fine the former president $3,000 for allegedly violating a gag order, according to a court filing made public Tuesday.
Prosecutors said Trump “willfully” violated the order, issued on April 1, by posting three separate times on social media about known witnesses and a prosecutor in Trump’s hush money case in New York.
