the defendant cannot use his free speech in this case to blow up the case prior to the jury having its chance to weigh in and make a determination.
I guess my question is what do you mean by blowing up the case? How does the public knowing the race, gender, politics, etc. of the jury change how the jurors are going to decide the case. And since this case involves a candidate for president, why shouldn't the American public have a right to know the race, gender, and politics of the judge and jury that made Donald Trump a convicted felon?
Here is your answer: https://www.reuters.com/world/us/ex-tab ... m=referral

Jurors should have the right to exercise their civic duty to decide a case to the best of their ability without fear of intimidation or reprisal. The judge requested the press not disclose identifying information after the press reported information sufficient to identify one juror. The juror requested to be dismissed after she began receiving calls and messages about being a juror. As long as the public continues to act like common thugs, juror privacy will have to be strictly protected.

Knowing the political party or gender shouldn't be enough to identify a juror. Trump was fined for saying the jury was mostly Democrat. They don't care about juror safety. They just want to be able to call Trump a convicted felon and leave out the part that he was convicted by a partisan political prosecutor, Judge, and jury.

Prosecutors wished to prevent juror intimidation and death threats from Trump supporters.

You’re confusing two different issues. Keeping the jurors safe from harassment and threats is the primary concern. Prohibiting disclosure of any information that would help identify jurors is a perfectly reasonable approach given the extent of thuggish behavior by members of the public.

Trump was fined for violating a court order — an order made necessary by his own thuggish behavior. Had you or I done the same, we’d be in jail. Trump is baiting the judge and is getting special preferential treatment to mollify his thuggish cultists.

Dozin’ Donny forgot his own son’s age yesterday. This is made worse since he was bangin’ Stormy Daniels four months after Barron was born. Boy, are we sure Dementia Don should be President again??

Do you know if any arrests were ever made for these swatting incidents? What happened to the Democrat protesters sending death threats outside of Kavanaugh's house?

Slumberin’ Don, that’s what they call him, I hear them talking on the streets, by the way, about Sleepin’ Donny Two-Timing Trump, heard he cheated on his wife only FOUR MONTHS after giving birth to his beautiful son. Slept with a hooker, can you believe that? An adult film actress is what they call them now. Not in my day, though. They’d just be hookers, but what do I know?

Apparently, Doped Up Donny had his crooked lawyers do it all. Can you believe that? Paid that, well we can’t say what she is any more, they took that away from us, paid her a HUNDRED AND THIRTY THOUSAND in hush money. That’s what they call it. Hush money. How do ya like that?

Eh. What has America become? Presidents steppin’ out on their ladies. Can you believe that?

Wasn't Trump a Democrat back in 2006? But your post does demonstrate the purpose of this kangaroo court. It's an attempt to make Donald Trump look bad in the eyes of the religious right, because Stormy Daniel's testimony has no relevance to the case. In a state where Soros prosecutors refuse to take up cases against retail theft<$1000/incident or press charges, the Soros led left is bringing 34 felonies against a man for paying hush money to hide an affair from his wife. That's what I find disgusting and against the interests of working American people. We knew Donald Trump lived an immoral sexual lifestyle and you knew it wouldn't change our opinion? We care about economic nationalism and putting the American people first.

So why have you chosen to besmirch the integrity of the criminal justice system, rather than make a case that your policies put the American people first and are in their best interests? It's because you can't. You don't believe in economic nationalism nor do you have any loyalty whatsoever to the American people.

I don’t care. The issue is keeping the jury safe. I’m not playing whack a mole grievance theater today.
