Merchan got his parting shot. He knows it's a pathetic paper-tiger attempt that will fail on first appeal, but he still gets to claim it. My guess is he thinks he's setting himself up for Bigger And Better things come the next liberal administration. Being able to thump his chest as "the judge who got Trump" would apply.

Donald Trump ran for office to avoid punishment for his crimes, and it worked. The fact still remains that he is a 34 times convicted felon.

I have heard comments that his actions may be legally actionable and the Justice Department could investigate and get his communications which might show intentional bias. I would say an investigation is warranted at least.

Depends on what the Trump Justice Department decides to do.  I certainly hope they don't put on kid gloves.

I want forensic accountants to go through all the travels of the millions of dollars democrats funneled to Merchan's daughter's company, "Authentic Campaigns."  We see from the Hunter Biden saga that bribing officials can sometimes be hidden by funneling money to their adult children . . . I'd like to know if that was in play with Judge Merchan.
Trump won in 2016. And again in 2024. Democrats haven't been so offended since Republicans came along and freed their slaves.

I heard that mentioned.  How much of that fundraising was she skimming off the top?

Yeah, search for check memo lines which read "legal consulting". My guess it there are a bunch of them.

That would be interesting.  I read somewhere that hiding payoffs as business expenses was Felony Falsification of Records in New York.
