An exasperated Judge Juan Merchan denied former President Donald Trump's third attempt to kick him off his New York criminal hush money case.
Aaron Katersky and Peter CharalambousAn exasperated Judge Juan Merchan, in a scathing order released Wednesday morning, denied former President Donald Trump's third attempt to kick the judge off his New York criminal"Stated plainly, Defendant's arguments are nothing more than a repetition of stale and unsubstantiated claims," Merchan wrote in the three-page order.
Merchan described Trump's third attempt at recusal as "nothing more than an attempt to air grievances against this court's rulings," and criticized defense attorneys for repeating "inaccurate and unsubstantiated claims." Merchan also criticized defense attorneys for raising issues with the remaining provisions of the case's limited gag order, which earlier this month"It is therefore difficult to rationalize how Defense Counsel can, in good faith, claim the Order is unconstitutional," Merchan wrote.
