Judge rejects Trump's request of recusing herself from conspiracy case

The federal judge set to preside over Donald Trump's historic trial for conspiring to overturn the 2020 U.S. election on Wednesday rejected a motion from the former president that she recuse herself from the case.

Trump's attorneys, in a court filing earlier this month, had argued that U.S. District Judge Tanya Chutkan should step aside because of past statements she has made that allegedly demonstrated bias. Chutkan, in a 20-page opinion, flatly denied the motion.
