#Trump demands recusal by Judge #Chutkan in #federal #Jan6 prosecution
#Attorneys for Trump on Monday asked US District Judge Tanya S. Chutkan to disqualify herself from presiding over his federal #ElectionObstruction case, asserting that Chutkan in past cases involving #Jan6, 2021, riot defendants made statements that give the appearance that she has prejudged Trump’s guilt.
(Not going to happen)

Ginni Thomas: This month she said in an interview with the Washington Free Beacon that “a democratic system like ours needs to be able to discuss and debate rationally in the political square. I fear we are losing that ability.”
I’m drowning in irony. “Discuss and debate rationally” is a ludicrous statement when the backdrop for her criticism is a seditious insurrection/attempted coup to override the foundational democratic process of certifying a presidential election — then install A DICTATOR.
If hundreds of gullible, brainwashed J6 foot soldiers can be identified, tried, convicted and sent to prison, one little über-influential woman can certainly be held accountable. Can’t she?
#Trump has filed for removal... (wait for it)
in #Colorado....to the #14thAmendment challenge by voters in that state.
Trump is being repped by former Colorado secetary of state Scott Gessler. And the case has been assigned to George W. Bush-appointed Judge Philip Brimmer.

#Judge Mehta schedules #Navarro's #sentencing for Jan. 12, 2024.
Navarro's (& EVERYBODY’s & btw bought & paid for by #Trump’s #PAC) #lawyer, #StanleyWoodward, moved for a #mistrial, saying the #jury all exited the courthouse just prior to issuing a #verdict & *may* have seen #Jan6 related #protests occurring outside the building. (umm what? Nonsense)

#Jan6 #Eastman #Grassley John Eastman declines to elaborate on Trump world discussions about Grassley presiding on Jan. 6
He asserted attorney-client privilege when asked to discuss evidence that Trump’s allies considered the Iowa senator playing a role to keep Trump in power. The elephant being mentioned by no one, including MSM, is the possibility of the hanging or disappearance of the Vice-President. https://www.politico.com/news/2023/09/07/john-eastman-disbarment-chuck-grassley-00114416
In a Reuters/Ipsos poll conducted on August 2&3 among Republicans, the following question was asked:
Did the Left-Wing lead the Jan 6 riots to make Trump look bad?
Agree 51%
Disagree 30%
Don't Know 18%
It's official: Republicans have lost their effin' minds!

The theory that the #14thAmendment disqualifies #Trump has gained traction… since 2 prominent #conservative #law profs argued in an (Atlantic) article last month that his actions before & during the #Jan6, 2021, attack on the Capitol constituted engagement in an #insurrection. But it remains a #legal long shot. Trump would surely #appeal any #ruling that he was #ineligible, and a final decision could rest w/ #SCOTUS, which has a conservative #supermajority that includes 3 justices he appointed.…

#Trump #legal team filed complaint re prosecutors filing a motion under seal w/o consulting them.
Prosecutors responded that they did consult on the #filing, just not on the decision to #file it #UnderSeal, a process laid out by the #court.
Prosecutors alerted Juge #Chutkan to Trump's "daily" public statements
Chutkan *granted* Trump's #motion to #vacate
