The judge presiding over the Trump January 6 previously worked at a law firm representing Russia hoax dossier firm Fusion GPS.
U.S. District Judge Tanya S. Chutkan is now involved with the Biden Justice Department’s prosecution of Trump.
While Chutkan worked for Boies Schiller Flexner, the firm also reportedly represented a figure in the Hillary Clinton private email server case.
The finding follows reports that the law firm represented Burisma, presenting a conflict of interest.
Trump discussed the alleged conflict of interest on Truth Social: “The Obama appointed Judge in the FREE SPEECH Indictment of me by my political opponent, Crooked Joe Biden’s Department of InJustice, shared professional ties at the law firm that worked for Energy Company Burisma, based in Ukraine, of which Hunter Biden and his associate were proud MEMBERS OF THE BOARD, and were paid Millions of Dollars, even though Hunter knew almost NOTHING about Energy. How much was the law firm paid? So Horrible. This is a CLASSIC Conflict of Interest!”
Reporting from The National Pulse:
Earlier conflicts based on Chutkan’s legal connections with organizations targeting Trump have also arisen. When overseeing Fusion GPS’s attempt to block the source of payments for the now infamous “Steele dossier”, Chutkan recused herself from the case. It was later discovered that her former law firm, Boies Schiller, represented Fusion GPS in federal court, raising concerns about impartiality.
