According to PACER, a sealed document was provided to the court yesterday. Now I have no idea what the document is or even if it is related to Judge Chutkan's removal from the case.
The timeline is this ...
October 20 ... Fusion GPS files suit to prevent House Intelligence Committee from subpoenaing its bank records.
October 30 ... Judge Chutkin closed the case after Congress and Fusion GPS had announced an agreement narrowing the scope of the subpoena. Judge Chutkin said she'd retain jurisdiction to enforce the agreement.
November 3 ... Fusion GPS asks the Court to reopen the case because the firm says House Intelligence Committee demands are still too broad. Fusion GPS files sealed motion requesting Court allow it to submit a document under seal. Fusion GPS also files sealed motion for Temporary Restraining Order preventing House Intelligence Committee from doing something.
November 5 ... (Sunday) ... News reports suggest that reporters were paid to spread dossier claims.
November 6 ... House Intelligence Committee files a motion under seal to request that the Court allow it to submit a document under seal.
November 8 ... Judge Chutkin grants both sides' motions to submit documents under seal.
November 8 ... Fusion GPS files yet another motion under seal allowing it to submit a document under seal.
November 8 ... House Intelligence Committee files sealed opposition to Fusion GPS's Motion for a Temporary Restraining Order.
November 9 ... Judge Chutkin is removed from case.
November 9 ... Court modifies its November 8 order allow Fusion GPS to file documents under seal. The order allowing the House Intelligence Committee to file documents under seal is not modified. It is unclear if this modification occurred before or after the Judge Chutkin was removed from the case.

“As long as a judge sees his/her duty as interpreting the law”
I would say rather that they should apply the law as written and intended, but what are the odds of any honesty from a Bush or Clinton or 0bama appointee?”
“This is why we need to see Trumps judges get in and fix things for a generation.”
But the dims continue to hold up his nominees.
This is how we know that there is no far right wing in America. If there were, there would be...something.

Please understand—draining the swamp has nothing to do with a “far right wing.”
It has nothing to do with “left” vs “right.”
As for what the establishment is doing to block Trump’s swamp draining, it has nothing to do with what the voters want. The establishment is acting against the American people in doing this.

You are correct.
DC is not about the electorate anymore.
The electorate is turning on DC and they must stop it.

He has taken on HRC / Obama State Dept. before:
Judge slams State Department over Hillary Clinton-related records -
"Do Have it by next week. Have it by next week when we have our hearing. Do you hear me?" ...
A lawyer for the AP, Jay Ward Brown, told Leon that the wire service was trying to find out what Abedin did during her time as a "special government employee." However, the judge was also curious about what Abedin does currently.
He told Obama lawyer:
"What you just said, Ms. Olson, made no sense," the judge replied. "You're failing to distinguish between documents created by the State Department independently of Hillary Clinton's emails with Hillary Clinton's emails. And you're giving me some kind of convoluted gobbledygook. about how the emails contain within them the independently created documents relating to Huma Abedin's appointment as a special government counsel. ...That is nonsensical." ... "Where is she now, this Huma person? ... Did you Google her? ... Have you done LinkedIn?", "You've got to check out on the social-media scene to see what she's doing."

Here is screenshot of current history from case

It shows,
"Case randomly reassigned to Judge Richard J. Leon. Judge Tanya S. Chutkan is no longer assigned to the case."
Something that was in one of the Congressional or Fusion GPS (Bean LLC) filings appears to have chased her back up the swamp.
