Filling the Surveillance Footage Gaps: Place and Payments - emptywheel

The government has asked for - and Trump and Walt Nauta's lawyers have not objected - to a protective order in the stolen documents case.That's utterly routine - though sometimes there is a stink about the terms of a protective order, which didn't happen here.The actual protective order itself does not include extra restrictions to prevent Trump from tweeting shit out - as his Alvin Bragg protective order did - but it does require the defense to make everyone who reviews discovery to sign a protective order as well (sometimes defendants unsuccessfully object to this on Sixth Amendment grounds because it provides a way to track a defendant's own investigation).
