A Washington, D.C.-based appeals court has declined to rehear arguments concerning Donald Trump’s ability to speak about witnesses and courthouse staff in special counsel Jack Smith’s Jan. 6 trial.

Trump’s only option if he wishes to further appeal is to go to the Supreme Court.

Per CNN:

Trump has unsuccessfully tried to challenge the gag order placed on him by Judge Tanya Chutkan late last year through appeals.

The 11 judges from the DC Circuit Court of Appeals on Tuesday declined to touch the case after a three-judge panel previously upheld the gag order against Trump. There were no statements or dissents made by any of the judges.
