Episode description

Special Counsel Jack Smith has filed a motion in Donald Trump's DC prosecution seeking to protect jurors from Trump's dangerous speech and social media posts. The "Motion for Fair and Protective Jury Procedures" seeks to have the court use a juror questionnaire to streamline the jury selection process in the DC case, and seeks to prohibit Trump and his lawyers from publicly disclosing the identities of - or attempt to communicate with - prospective jurors in any way. Notably in the motion, Smith lays out Trump's "attack," via a social media post, on New York Judge Engoron's law clerk and the ensuing gag order imposed by the judge. According to Glenn - by informing Judge Chutkan about Trump's most recent dangerous post, Smith seems to be priming the well in advance of the October 16 gag order hearing set in Trump's Washington DC case.
