When Donald Trump appears before District Judge Tanya Chutkan to face the host of charges brought against him for his role in 2020 election interference, he might recognise a familiar foe.
Her assignment may worry Mr Trump's legal team. Over the past two years, the 61-year-old has won a reputation for harsh sentences for those convicted of participation in the riots.
Of the 31 defendants who have come before her, Judge Chutkan has sentenced every one of them to at least some jail time, according to a Washington Post tally. And she has been remarkably candid when sentencing defendants to hefty punishments.
"It is not patriotism, it is not standing up for America to stand up for one man - who knows full well that he lost - instead of the Constitution he was trying to subvert," she said at a sentencing hearing last year.
Another defendant was told bluntly that they had engaged in "violent attempted overthrow of the government… and it almost succeeded".
Explaining her approach, Judge Chutkan has previously said that it "has to be made clear that trying to violently overthrow the government, trying to stop the peaceful transition of power and assaulting law enforcement officers in that effort, is going to be met with absolutely certain punishment".
Nonetheless, she has previously expressed frustration that people who had knowingly lied to Mr Trump's supporters had avoided charges.
"You have made a very good point," she said during one sentencing hearing in 2021, "that the people who exhorted you and encouraged you and rallied you to go and take action and to fight have not been charged".

She’s an EVIL DEMOCRAT.
In other words a black female government employee who hates those racist crackas.
This is not a hard-line judge. A hard line judge imposes harsh punishment on egregious criminals.
This is a hard-left judge.
Bkmk
“It is not patriotism, it is not standing up for America to stand up for one man - who knows full well that he lost”
That statement alone should get her removed from the case.
She’s a racist, American-hating, Jamaican refugee born in Kingston, Jamacia. She’s Jamaican, not American. When did we decide to allow foreign garbage to come into America and try to throw one of our former presidents in jail?
She is just another Obama asswipe commie “judge” whose primary goal in life is to advance the leftist agenda.
She was confirmed 95-0.
Not one Republican Senator voted against her.
She was born in Jamaica.
Wiki does not explain if she is a citizen by birth or naturalized.
“That statement alone should get her removed from the case.”
I agree. She should be forced to recuse herself since it’s the basis of the prosecution’s case/charges against Trump.
Indeed - should be an easy disqualification. Of course, that is sheer fantasy...
Redundant!
Chutkan is an evil Jamacian. Its in her genes to be an extreme liberal and a promoter of Socialism.
didn’t she work for the same law firm that humper worked for??
conflict of interest? maybe
“She should be forced to recuse herself since it’s the basis of the prosecution’s case/charges against Trump.“
Unfortunately, it’s only WE, the People who believe this..
NONE of our “representatives” in DC will ever move to make it happen.
We are no longer a Representative Republic. It’s very sad to see what they have done to our nation.
Same as the cow in Fulton County. What is it with black women and Trump?
Yeah.
She’s a damn foreigner, judging Americans.
Refugee? From what, herself? Jamaica is marketed as a black paradise.
She came to the US voluntarily…and undoubtedly immediately started screaming about racism.
And undoubtedly was given affirmative action preferences over any White person vying for a slot in law school or a federal district court judgeship.
When did we run out of lawyers to do that job? There were no native born attorneys of her caliber?
Whatta laff. She was a half assed public defender recruited into a far left law firm specializing in Rat party hit jobs.
She was chosen by the foreign alien Obama precisely because she’s a black foreigner who has a grudge against Americans.
Does anyone think the Revolution was fought with the intent of putting someone like her on the bench?
And she hands out harsh sentences because the recipients of her venom are the hated Whites.
It’s racial revenge, not “tough justice”.
She’s NOT American.
And they picked her for the job because of that.
Trump needs to start filing lawsuits. There is no way in hell he can get a fair trial in the District of Corruption with a racist Jamaican refugee “judge” and a so-called “jury” made up with registered RAT voters. Another thing, there is some clown who wrote a piece of crap floating around the net under the name of Joseph Allen, who is defending her. He says she was born in America and then gets specific when he says she was born in Kingston, Jamaica on 6 July 1962 so that makes her an American. Everything I’ve found out about Jamaica is that it is a separate country. It is NOT “America”. It’s Jamaica. Then he says her parents hailed from Kingston Jamaica but nothing can be found out about them. That’s suspicious. The author of the article appears to be a few bricks short of a load. Being born in Jamaica is not the same as being born in America. After he says she was born in America, the idiot goes on to top it off by saying she applied for U.S. citizenship as if she was doing us a favor.
IOW she’s another Obama.
Sure she was born in “America”...if you define “America” as all of the New World, from Tierra del Fuego to Point Barrow.
See? Language is malleable.
I guess she loved her job throwing American JSIXERS in prison. Typical Jamaican. She needs her ass deported. I’ll bet there is more to her “compelling life story” than we know.
