UPDATE Judicial Conduct Commission Vindicates Trump: The New York State Commission on Judicial Conduct dismissed an ethics complaint with a “caution” to Judge Merchan over his donations to the Biden campaign and other Democratic causes. Reports are Judge Merchan has not released the “caution” letter, which he evidently received last summer. This official ethics finding, which can be used against Merchan in any future ethics proceedings, serves to confirm Trump’s concerns about Judge Merchan’s bias and ethics. This black mark against Judge Merchan for his improper political donations again demonstrates how the abusive trial of Trump is corrupted by politics. h/t @Reuters

Judges are prohibited under ethics rules from donating to political campaigns and organizations. Accordingly, there are legitimate concerns about Judge Merchan’s reported political contributions while a sitting judge to Biden and Democratic causes.

Joe Biden waived executive privilege when he provided the written transcript of his interview with Hur.
He ought to have asserted privilege when the subpoena was due, not when it’s politically convenient for him.

Not surprised that Judge Merchan is hiding the “caution” letter.
Thank goodness for Tom Fitton’s diligent work to bring it to light.
