House Republican Conference Chair Elise Stefanik filed an ethics complaint against Judge Juan Merchan for an alleged conflict of interest pertaining to his daughter’s role at a firm known for representing Democratic politicians.
Merchan, an acting Supreme Court justice in New York, is presiding over the unprecedented criminal trial against former President Trump stemming from charges brought by Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg.
Stefanik, R-N.Y., filed the complaint with the New York State Commission on Judiciary Conduct, warning that Trump, who pleaded not guilty to all 34 counts of falsifying business records, faces "a maximum of 136 years’ imprisonment" if convicted, and said not only are his "interests at stake," but "the interests of all Americans are at stake."

The Judge weaponized the law violating the essence of the American Republic.
He has forfeited his right to life, liberty and happiness
Needed to be done.
What’s the over/under on how long ethics complaints take to resolve....in years.
In this case, it's the NY ethics commission comprised of left wing attorneys, so it's a Black hole, never to see the light of day.
Merchan”s getting “well paid for his efforts,” no doubt.
Do not underestimate the insanity of the NY judicial system.
Somebody finally steps up to this Dem destruction of the rule of law.
I guess the men need this woman to step in and do their job. Show the whiners how it’s done, Elise. THANK YOU!
How many others on both sides of the aisle have been making money off this endless proxy war? I don't think we really want to know, because it would make us even more disgusted than we already are.
AOC had to stay with somebody when she first got to DC because she didnt have enough money for an apartment. She’s now worth millions.
Yeah, I get it. But if they really do try to lock him up I suspect it will go for them like it went for Japan when they attacked Pearl Harbor. And Midway was just a few months later.
uh....you didnt hear about the judges behavior from yesterday did you?
I got a full up front 1/2 hour eyewitness report from Dershowitz, he was there front pew
Elise is doing the right thing
“Let’s hope for a little justice.”
That’s more than we usually see.
Agreed. There are any number of possible final straw events but nearly all of them involve Trump. He has made himself a lightening rod for the salvation of our country from its enemies, fioreign and domestic.
It all started when he said it was not him they were after, but us. And I actually believe that.
It’ll be “resolved” in a day or two. We won’t hear about it for years.
