WASHINGTON, D.C.: The federal judge overseeing Donald Trump's 2020 election interference case in Washington, D.C. has reimposed a narrow gag order barring the former United States president from making public comments targeting prosecutors, court staff and potential witnesses.

The gag order's reinstatement was revealed in a brief notation on the online case docket on Sunday night, but the order itself was not immediately available, making it impossible to see the judge's rationale or the precise contours of the restrictions.
