The court system clown show continues as Democratic judges conspire against former President Donald Trump.
On Tuesday, New York Judge Juan Merchan imposed a gag order on Trump to silence his attempts to call out parties involved in his hush money trial who are trying to destroy him, arguing that his mean online messages “establish a sufficient risk to the administration of justice.”
Merchan, like many of those involved in Trump’s 91 indictments, is explicitly biased in favor of Democratic causes and against Trump. He confessed to having donated to President Joe Biden’s 2020 campaign, during which he was listed as both a judge and a registered Democrat, yet he claimed he was devoid of bias and New York endorsed his continued involvement in Trump’s case regardless.
If his own involvement in Democratic elections does not compromise him, his daughter’s involvement definitely should. Loren Merchan was a high-ranking member and partner of Authentic Campaigns during the 2020 election and was promoted to president shortly after its conclusion. Authentic Campaigns is an organization that supports the campaigns of various Democratic candidates and causes.
Loren Merchan led campaign work for clients Kamala Harris, Adam Schiff, and several other prominent Democrats in the 2020 election season. Her devotion to the leftist cause is clear: Her profile picture on X is of Trump behind bars. Or it was until this morning when she changed her profile picture after being called out.
Trump commented on this information on Truth Social, calling out Juan Merchan’s hypocrisy and accusing him and his daughter of using his trial for profit: “Maybe the Judge is such a hater because his daughter makes money by working to ‘Get Trump,’ and when he rules against me over and over again, he is making her company, and her, richer and richer. How can this be allowed?”
Such an accusation is not spontaneous and does warrant further investigation since similar corrupt schemes have been exposed in other parts of the legal attacks on Trump.
Georgia District Attorney Fani Willis and special prosecutor Nathan Wade oversaw the proceedings against Trump over the election subversion case. They were exposed as having been in a secret relationship and are now suspected of using their positions to funnel money into their romantic getaways and other personal expenses. Since then, Wade has resigned from Willis’s office.

On Monday, in the New York civil fraud trial, an appeals court reduced Trump’s bond to $175 million, nearly a third of its original size. The ridiculous original bond of $465 million was set by New York Supreme Court Justice Arthur Engoron. This would have allowed New York Attorney General Letitia James to suck away Trump’s campaign funds and seize his personal assets.
Juan Merchan’s direct affiliations with Trump’s opposition add him to the growing list of compromised and biased judicial members who should be ousted from the justice system.
