'Flat ridiculous': GOP and Dem White House ethics experts unite to condemn Trump's judge recusal...

Donald Trump's attempt to force Judge Chutkan to recuse herself from the D.C. elections case is "flat ridiculous," according to ethics experts who served in administrations of both Republican and Democrat presidents.

The former president recently asked Chutkan to recuse herself from the federal criminal action, claiming that her comments in past Jan. 6 cases were disqualifying because they appeared to show bias against Trump. Prosecutor Jack Smith hit back with a defense of the judge's past comments.

Now, former White House ethics czar Norm Eisen and Richard Painter, the former ethics czar for George W. Bush, have joined forces to show why the motion to recuse should ultimately fail.
