Trump’s Election Case Back Before No-Nonsense Judge

“Judge Tanya Chutkan wasted no time last month when the biggest case of her career — the indictment of former President Donald Trump on election interference charges — was handed back to her,” the New York Times reports.

“After watching from the sidelines for nearly eight months as Mr. Trump’s lawyers fought their way up to the Supreme Court with what turned out to be a largely successful argument that he had broad immunity from prosecution on charges arising from his official acts as president, Judge Chutkan moved quickly to get pretrial proceedings moving again.”
