  3. Her appeal echoes a concern that #Chutkan raised at an Aug. 11 #hearing in the case. She indicated then that #Trump’s public statements — which are unusual in a #federal #criminal case, & the type of behavior that tends to anger judges — suggest that the #trial should happen quickly to avoid WitnessTampering & #influencing potential #jurors.
