Federal prosecutors flagged a threatening social media post from Donald Trump in a late-night court filing on Friday, arguing that it suggests he might intimidate witnesses by improperly disclosing confidential evidence received from the government.
WASHINGTON —
In the filing in Washington federal court, the office of Special Counsel Jack Smith said Trump's social media post raised concerns that he might publicly reveal secret material, such as grand jury transcripts, obtained from prosecutors. At his arraignment on Thursday, Trump swore not to intimidate witnesses or communicate with them without legal counsel present.
The sheriff's office has canceled all time off for the next few weeks and police are working 12-hour shifts, the news outlet reported. Orange barricades began appearing around the courthouse last month, as officials prepared for potential demonstrations should Trump be indicted in the coming weeks.
