The Justice Department has until Wednesday to respond to Trump's request, and Trump will have until the following Saturday to reply.

Judge Tanya Chutkan stands firm against Trump's recusal demands in federal election subversion case

Judge Tanya Chutkan has rejected Donald Trump's request to recuse herself from his federal 2020 election subversion case, stating that her previous comments about the Capitol riot defendants did not demonstrate a deep-seated prejudice against Trump. Chutkan clarified that she had never advocated for Trump's prosecution or imprisonment. Trump's lawyers were criticized for taking her comments out of context, while prosecutors argued that Chutkan's remarks were in response to defendants who downplayed their actions on January 6 by blaming Trump and other political leaders.
