(FILES) (COMBO) This combination of pictures created on August 27, 2023 shows a handout photo dated 2022 provided by the United States District Court for the District of Columbia, of Judge Tanya Chutkan, then US President Donald Trump in Washington, DC, on July 30, 2020 and special counsel Jack Smith in Washington, DC, on August 1, 2023. Does Donald Trump have the right to call prosecutors "fascist thugs," or advise those testifying against him to keep quiet?
Those are the questions a federal appeals court in Washington will hear November 20 as the ex-president's lawyers contest a gag order imposed on him during one of Trump's criminal trials related to the 2020 election. (Photo by various sources / AFP)
