Appearing with Sebastian Gorka, Kash Patel puts some excellent context on the issue of Dircuit Court Judge Chutkan presiding over the special counsel case against President Trump. ...
I was unaware of the detail where Judge Chutkan originally presided over the case when Fusion GPS tried to block Devin Nunes and Kash Patel from revealing the source of the payments for the Chriss Steele dossier.
...
Kash Patel: “Judge Chutkan, for those who don’t know, represented Burisma, Hunter Biden’s fraudulent consulting firm, she was a lawyer at the same law firm with Hunter Biden. But Seb, let’s put that aside. What other matters are there for her recusal? In 2017 when Devin Nunes and I were running the Russiagate investigation, we figured out who paid for the Steele dossier. Fusion GPS, the DNC, and the Hillary Clinton campaign paid Christopher Steele millions of dollars and they laundered it through the FBI and the FISA court to unlawfully surveil Donald Trump. That’s big-time stuff.
On the eve of us winning that disclosure, before the world knew, Fusion GPS took us to federal court and that case landed in JUDGE CHUTKAN’S COURT ROOM. … After a month of heavy litigation where Judge Chutkan knew the ins and outs of Fusion GPS, our proceedings, all possible witnesses, etc., when she could not prevent us from prevailing, she recused -on her own- from that case. Why?”
...
“We found out her law firm, Boies Schiller, represented Fusion GPS. The very client that was in front of her in federal court was one of her former clients. That is rule #1 for disqualification.”
GORKA: “Boies Schiller Flexner is the same company where Chutkan and Hunter Biden worked!”
PATEL: “You gotta ask yourself, Seb, how come it took Chutkan a month [to recuse herself]? … She wanted to block the bank records.
Imagine if we never found out who paid for the dossier. … She set the precedent. She cannot neutrally and arbitrarily preside over Donald Trump’s criminal trial when she recused herself from the very representation of the Democratic entrenchment: the DNC, the Hillary Clinton campaign, Fusion GPS, because she was so biased because of her prior representation from Boies Schiller.
How could she possibly be allowed to stay on this case? And it wasn’t us, Seb. We got her off because of her own history. That precedent is what Donald Trump’s lawyers must apply this week.”
Perhaps this recusal issue is why four other district court judges including Boasberg sat in the back of the courtroom for President Trump’s appearance last week. Perhaps the judges were proactively contemplating who would meet the DC recusal threshold.
She couldn’t be more conflicted and there isn’t a chance in hell she will recuse in this case.
<>Rats never recuse. Never.<>
She did.
It’s not about justice, fairness, or even the law.
It’s about advancing Democrap interests at and cost.
I see no recusal announcement anywhere
“It’s about loading Trump down with court, money and paper entanglements.
“Old time lawyer’s trick.”
Sounds like abuse of process to my layperson mind.
If a federal executive branch official is responsible, I think impeachment would be in order.
If a guy has 37 federal charges against him and only three would put him away for life, shouldn’t the other 34 get tossed out as a waste of a judge’s and jury’s time? Wasting the time of a judge normally impedes another arrested person’s Amendment VI right to a speedy trial.
Friend of mine was married to pretty much the highest paid lawyer in the United States.
This is what he did all the time. Overburden the person prosecuting or suing is client with a mountain of paper stuff.
Stop digging.
Because she has not recused or has?
<>she recused -on her own- from that case.<>
Have you seen my posts that she became a partner at Boies, Schiller, & Flexner LLP in 2007? That David Boies is the man who represented Al Gore in his election challenge in Florida, and Judge Chutkan joined the Boies firm two years later and eventually became partner?
Isn't it ironic that she teamed up with the man who challenged a Presidential election in court and she's now trying to jail a man for challenging a Presidential election?

Ok l will amend it. Rats rarely recuse and when they do it is so brazen it’s a guaranteed successful appeal if they don’t.
