Trump Found In Contempt Again, Judge Threatens "Jail Time" Next

Former President Donald Trump has been found in contempt of court for a second time by a New York judge overseeing his hush-money trial.

On Monday, judge Juan Merchan said that Trump had violated a gag order with additional social media posts about witnesses in the case, and will consider jail if there are additional violations.

"It appears that the $1,000 fines are not serving as a deterrent," said Merchan. "Mr. Trump, I want you to understand the last thing I want to do is put you in jail."

"The magnitude of such a decision is not lost on me, but at the end of the day, I have a job to do."

Last week, Merchan fined Trump $9,000 and held the former president in criminal contempt of court for violating the gag order nine times.
