(NEW YORK) — Former President Donald Trump filed a motion Thursday to try to get the judge who oversaw his civil fraud trial in New York kicked off the case. According to Bailey, their discussion only concerned Engoron’s September 2023 summary judgment order in which the judge determined Trump committed fraud. “I did not think that speaking to Judge Engoron about my own personal views of his already published decision was wrong in any way,” Bailey said. Trump is already appealing the outcome of the civil fraud case to an intermediate appellate court, with the appeal due to be filed next month. It is clear that Judge Engoron should recuse himself immediately,” Habba said.

In both countries the leading opposition parties, largely written off because of an unfavourable playing field, delivered unexpectedly strong results that significantly weakened the incoming coalition governments’ mandate. A strong mandate in Pakistan and India requires a strong win in these countries’ largest provinces. In India, two politicians leading key opposition parties were arrested, and the Indian National Congress’s funds were frozen right on the eve of the election. As a result, Mr Khan’s PTI performed astonishingly well in the election, despite all the handicaps placed on it. But unlike in India and Pakistan, the leading opposition parties in Bangladesh chose to boycott the election that they viewed to be flawed, rather than mobilise voters around an alternative vision.
