Trump is sleeping.

Last week, the prosecution in the Trump hush money trial asked for a warning of imprisonment for any continued gag order violations.

It appears they got it.

Judge Merchan also warned Trump he will be jailed if he continues to violate the gag order.

Trump just fined $1,000 per contempt charge.

Judge Merchan found for the prosecution for nine of the ten, so he's got a $9,000 bill.

Police officers are on campus responding to an active shooter threat. All dorms are locked down. A University of Montana alert said police received a 911 call threatening a shooting, but police have not verified the threat at this time.
