Meet the judge presiding over President Donald Trump's criminal case: Acting New York County Supreme Court Justice Juan Manuel Merchan, an apparent 2020 Biden donor whose daughter once worked for Vice President Kamala Harris's presidential campaign.
According to Federal Election Commission (FEC) filings, Merchan donated three times to ActBlue in the summer of 2020, once on July 26, 2020, when the judge's donation was—according to the FEC—earmarked for President Joe Biden's 2020 presidential campaign. The other two of Merchan's contributions were pledged to the Progressive Turnout Project (PTP), a left-wing PAC that rallies voter turnout for Democrat candidates, and Stop Republicans,

Might?
NO Doubt… “proudly lists Biden”
“Merchan's adult daughter, Loren, previously worked for Kamala Harris's failed 2020 presidential campaign and is now president of a consulting company that proudly lists the Biden-Harris campaign as its client, according to a report by Breitbart.
The discovery was pieced together from a decade-old photograph uploaded to Flickr by SUNY Geneseo that featured Judge Merchan on a panel of parents of current students or distinguished alumni who are in the legal profession, captioned: "One of the panelists was Hon. Juan Merchan, Court of Claims Judge sitting as an Acting Justice of the Supreme Court — Criminal Term, New York County, and parent of Loren Merchan '11."

Of course, this judge has a major conflict of interest! He should recuse himself.
The Banana Republicanism is becoming a little too blatant lately. Next, they'll have bananas in the flag instead of stars.

No shite Sherlock! Juan does have a conflict. But to him, it doesn't matter, as his task is to ensure that 45 is locked up for good. Justice is this case is blind, dumb and deaf. IOWs, there will not be justice but spite from the judge.

Fining a fair and honest judge in NY is like finding a fair and honest Democrat. Oh wait, the judge is a HUGE democrat. Never mind.

That's why they picked him!
You can't have a sham trial without a sham judge running it!

This, Bragg going to jail, an indictment without a crime...so? It's a political spectacular, the first in a series of entanglements to prevent a second Trump administration. The crazy billionaire must be taken down, Napoleon denied return from Elbe to lead his Grand Armee. What's legal, or right or wrong, is immaterial to the spectacle.

It will certainly be interesting to see what this Democrat Judge has to say after the Trump legal team lays a number of “comprehensive” motions with that court. It’s possible following that, the real action will come from the appeals court.

The days when conflicts of interest materially affected Democrats/Liberals are long gone. That is exactly what this struggle is all about.

One of the filings will be the Judge is compromised and MUST RECUSE HIMSELF. If he denies that he WILL be overturned!

" ... Major Conflict of Interest" - does not make a difference when the communists have the advantage and they do now
really do not understand the numbers of people who watch the Pravda channels and believe that stuff

Democrats never recuse themselves.
That stupidity is the sole purview of the Republicans.
