TL;DR Summary

Former President Donald Trump's legal team has once again argued for US District Judge Tanya Chutkan to recuse herself from the criminal case against him related to the 2020 election. Trump's lawyers claim that his political successes make the prosecution politically biased and that Chutkan, known for her handling of January 6 riot cases, should no longer preside. While the request is unlikely to succeed, Trump's filings could be used in appeals if he is convicted. Trump has also faced a request from federal prosecutors to limit his public speaking about the case due to alleged harassment caused by his social media attacks.
