The Judge says 'justice before politics'.. [View all]

The Judge let it be known to Trump's lawyers that justice comes before politics, even if someone is running for president.

Since he is now a defendant, he cannot intimidate witnesses, as he has done in the past.

She did cut a lot of slack by only putting restrictions on "sensitive information", so as not to interfere with any claims of prohibiting "free speech".

The question now is, what does she do when Trump ignores her guidelines and warnings within the next 24 hours?

This is my interpretation from what I have heard thus far.
