BREAKING: Trump’s legal team anticipates ‘gag order’ from NYC judge

The legal team for former President Donald Trump is "considering adding a First Amendment lawyer to the effort to combat this and will fight it all the way," the source reportedly said. Breaking gag orders comes with a fine of $1,000 and a potential prison term of 30 days.

Trump is expected to arrive in New York City on Monday to be arraigned on Tuesday in a lower Manhattan courthouse. Trump is expected to stay at his Trump Tower overnight. This is the first time in American history that a current or former president has faced criminal charges.

The former president and current presidential candidate posted to Truth Social that he "will be leaving Mar-a-Lago on Monday at 12 noon, heading to Trump Tower in New York. On Tuesday morning I will be going to, believe it or not, the Courthouse. America was not supposed to be this way!"

Ahead of the arraignment, NYPD set up barricades up and down the street, and media set up camp outside the courthouse days in advance. A livestream being filmed outside the courthouse showed the impending action.

Trump is expected to plead not guilty to all charges. Trump's attorney Joe Tacopina told CNN's Dana Bash on Sunday "this is not normal operating procedure. It's all up in the air. All the Tuesday stuff is still very much up in the air other than the fact that we will very loudly and proudly say not guilty."

Tacopina also said he believes there's a chance the case will be dismissed, saying they will be submitting a motion to dismiss the case. "We will take the indictment. We will dissect it," Tacopina said.

"The team will look at every, every potential issue that we will be able to challenge, and we will challenge. And of course, I very much anticipate a motion to dismiss coming because there's no law that fits this," he said.

Trump will be returning to Mar-a-Lago in Palm Beach on Tuesday evening, where he intends to give remarks.

New York City DA Alvin Bragg is pressing charges against Trump for misdemeanor charges of falsifying records, claiming that Trump stated that payments made to his attorney Michael Cohen were legal fees, but that those funds were used to pay off a porn star.

Bragg has since elevated charges and added at least one felony to the list, though what that charge is has not been revealed. Many have said the prosecution is politically motivated.
