On Monday, the former president called on the federal judge in his 2020 election interference case to recuse herself. U.S. District Judge Tanya Chutkan, Trump argued, made biased comments during the trial of January 6 Capitol rioters she presided over. 

"Presidents are not kings, and Plaintiff is not President," Chutkan wrote in that ruling.
