Former US president Donald Trump could face more sanctions over another round of potential gag order violations when witness testimony in his hush money trial resumes.

Judge Juan M Merchan will hold a hearing in New York City over four more online posts that prosecutors say violate the court’s mandate barring the former president from speaking publicly about jurors or key witnesses in the case.
