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.
Get fucked, Cheeto chimp!
Lock him up! Lock him up! Lock him up!
I demand trump write a full page ad in the NYT apologizing to America and the world for being such a douchebag racist asshole, and fucking everything up. And then proceed to jail.
He did that once before, when he demanded the death penalty for the Central Park Five, who were wrongfully convicted.
He is a racist piece of shit.
Judges that are going to recuse themselves do so before they take on the case. This is both a stalling tactic and a fundraising technique. He probably already has the fundraising emails ready to go decrying the rigged liberal judge that refuses to recuse.
Yup. These meritless motions are done just to make news headlines. Habba, one of Trump’s lawyers, was previously fined $1,000,000 for filing frivolous motions for the purpose of political grandstanding.
Habba the jutt?
The very same.
I do have to say…I’m loving Lemmy just for the crowd. Normally on Reddit, I’d be sorting through a mass of racist shitheads defending their shithead leader for an article like this, but most people here are just having conversations, whether they agree with the position of the linked content or not.
It’s nice.
Yeah on here you just have to avoid anything that says hexbear.
Now you done it
Rent free
Why do people always do this? Just because you mention something you don’t like doesn’t mean you’re thinking about it all the time.
Someone did this to me the other day on Lemmy. It was a post about something I thought of years ago and people laughed at me at the time and then I saw the article about it and commented, “fuck those people” and some person told me I should let go of the anger I’ve felt over this for years. I was like, “I haven’t even thought about this for years.”
Some people on Lemmy take your every post as a reflection of your personality and the truest part of your subconscious; whereas most of us are just wasting some time on the can…
Add “regular_human” to the pile
Communism usually is…lol
Looks like so far, only 4 racist shitheads have found your comment. Only here, they’re too cowardly to refute your point.
There are a few shitheads on lemmy.world.
Certain subreddits were alright.
Mostly they are on other servers
So um…bets on how detailed she goes in her “fuck no” statement? Think it’s going to be simple like a sentence or just a “no” or something extended?
No in whatever the shortest way to say no in legalese is
No
Legalese needs more words, something like “motion denied” would work.

No.
It would be nice if they could respond in giphys or video clips. I suggest something like this:
The judge should say, “sure. As soon as Clarence Thomas starts recusing himself.”
As fun as that would be, it would achieve nothing good.
Oh, gawd, I’d love to see that.
Trump demands a lot of things.
Somebody needs his diaper changed!
I imagine the ketchup cleaning crew has been stepped up a notch in the past year or so…
Lol Clarence Thomas first
Who the fuck is this orange shitstain to demand anything?
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.
Chutkan: Recuse myself? No, I don’t think I will, thank you.
You have no power here! 😅
He’s in no position do demand anything from anyone. He should be begging for mercy.
This.
Oh course he is trying to make demands. Obviously it’s damaging to his case so he wants the recusal.
