Donald Trump legal spokeswoman Alina Habba said she is 'I am not permitted to talk about the staff,' in the court her client is being tried in.
Those are the words of attorney and Donald Trump legal spokeswoman Alina Habba to Newsmax on Friday. Habba was the subject of an expanded gag order issued by New York Supreme Court Justice Arthur Engoron on Friday, prohibiting Habba and Trump's legal team from commenting about the judge's staff, namely his clerk, Allison Greenfield.
Trump has already been fined $15,000 for twice violating the gag order handed down by Engoron. Trump's legal team has complained about eye rolls of Greenfield and her apparent "co-judging" — handing the judge 30 to 40 notes in one day, Trump's team noted. So, Engoron shut down Trump and his entire legal team, including Habba.
"We are in a banana republic. We are in a situation right now, where Letitia James is allowed to freely go out and rip whoever she wants to talk about before she even becomes the AG, before she has any knowledge of anything in the organization, to call them criminals, to call them frauds," Habba said.
