Former President Trump on Monday formally demanded the recusal of the federal judge overseeing his 2020 election subversion case in Washington, D.C.
Trump’s attorneys cited statements U.S. District Judge Tanya Chutkan made while sentencing two previous Jan. 6 defendants that appeared to reference Trump, arguing the comments create a perception that Chutkan prejudged Trump’s guilt before he was charged.
A US citizen with rights. Among them a right to a fair trial and as this judge clearly already believes he’s guilty.
I tend to agree, and I hope this seditious cheetoh rots in a jail cell, but that doesn’t change the objective nature of his request.
Things what live under rocks think he is guilty.
It’ll be hard to find someone who is impartial who doesn’t have a preformed opinion about him. He has the right to a fair trial, he has no right to a judge who likes him.
