Crooked far left Judge Juan Merchan threatened President Trump on Monday with contempt of court violations.
Merchan also threatened to throw President Trump in prison.
Merchan also threatened President Trump’s team with contempt of court for speaking out publicly in his defense.
Democrats hate when conservatives and Trump supporters refute their lies and push back against their lawfare attacks.(Photo, X) Crooked Judge Merchan still has not allowed the defense team to know the witnesses that will be called before the court.
The far left judge told Trump he has until 2:15 PM today to take down posts on Truth Social.

Dems are desperate. Biden's candidacy is a disaster. Chaos is their last remaining option.

The kangaroo in the black robe is hot to bounce PDJT into that briar patch! Merchan and daughter are having their fun now, but it won't last. The mallet wielded by a higher court will fall, and the BS persecutions, even if Trump is found guilty by Democrat juries, will be quashed. Then the legal careers of those participating in these quite illegal shenanigans will be squashed.

Remember the movie "Miracle on 34th St.," where the city boss (I think the guy who played Fred on I Love Lucy" had the role) told the judge something like "You don't want to be the guy who jailed Santa Claus."?
Somebody needs to play that role with this idjit judge. Toss Trump in jail and it'll make the snowflakes in tents at Columbia look like a Saturday afternoon picnic.

I wonder if this so-called judge ever heard of the 1st Amendment?

Oh, and why not have someone like Ted Cruz do the posting for Pres Trump ?
Sorry. Judge. Ain't me doing the posting. And I can't edit what goes on X or even Truth Social. But I'll donate another $1000 to the Jewish kids who can't go to school or graduation.

Nother question. Why cant the obviously unconstitutional gag order be appealed NOW to a higher court?
Ain't like Trump is worried about ticking off the Judge. And if he's worried about the Jury hearing comments, he can sequester the Jury (yeah, they'd love that , especially when the Judge goes out to play golf on Wednesday and during the weekend (including Memorial Day) and they miss their kid's graduation sitting in some hotel with all the other floors filled with migrants on the dole.

I have little doubt that there will be some false charge that puts DJT in jail by the election. The ballots will already be printed, and I know how I will vote!

Foreign born Judge from a Socialist hellhole is appointed to preside over a former America-loving U.S. President's "Communist Show-Trial."
How is this even possible? Our Judges should strictly be natural born citizens, period.

Most of the 9 previously "cited" posts he paid fines for was Trump re-posting comments by others..many of which were actual News Stories.
One of which was Story's Lawyer Avenetti stating she was a liar, and that Trump was innocent of the charges.
Trumps team tried to hand the judge a whole stack of news stories and commentaries and directly ASKED him to tell them which were OK, and which would violate his order...he refused, saying he wouldn't "prejudge" anything, that Trump would have to "Take his chances, or self censor in self defense".

Is there no ‘grand poobah’ judge to oversee the actions of these crooked judges? Who controls their actions when they lack integrity?

Trump should quote to the judge Capt. Kirk from Star Trek when he's addressing Balok in "The Corbomite Maneuver," "Death has... little meaning to us. If it has none to you then attack us now. We grow annoyed at your foolishness."

The 'judge' Knows he can't send Trump to jail. If so, then the Federal courts could be ask to intervene and if so, the Federal courts could take this case out of Judge Corruption's hands. If he wants to continue the sweet money deal for his family, has to keep[ Trump in NYC court.

Chances are the leftist and progressive Democrat Biden crew, under the table, hinted to that Democrat Judge that he will be in line for a Federal judgeship if he takes Trump out by way of that “law fare” criminal persecution and Biden is re-elected. But the way it looks at the moment that Democrat Judge should have bailed himself out of that bogus political case long ago, rather than take the heat from both sides when Trump walks either directly at the end of the case in that Judges court, or indirectly in the appeals court. I would say if Trump is found guilty of any of the offenses, it will be probable since there are two almost certain liberal Democrat New York City lawyers who have been allowed on the jury, who because they are lawyers, supposedly versed in the law, will be an authoritative power on the that who should be able to sway the jury against Trump no matter the law!

Not one reporter has asked the question: what does President Trump's Secret Service protectors plan to do?
Allow him to be illegally jailed?
I'm asking ... and so are millions of others too.

Crooked judge with a daughter monetizing this case BIG TIME. Yep, he doesn't want everyone hearing how crooked he is and how his daughter PROVES his massive bias in the case, and unfitness to be seated.

Judge Merchan was born in Bogotá, Colombia. What is this with these foreign born judges like the one, Judge Tanya Chutkan who was born in Kingston, Jamaica, presiding over the D.C. trial? Can't the Left find an American born judge to try President Trump or is that too hard?

Will the defense ever be allowed to call a witness or put on a case in this trial? I am just wondering as it seems from the headlines that the defense lawyers are not present in the courtroom.

It seems to me that GWP wants Merchan to put Trump in jail, perhaps to increase clicks from their sensational headlines.

The judge is upset because…. He has no evidence ….won’t reveal witnesses because he probably don’t know who they are…

You stoled my thunder, #9. I'm glad you stated it. It has been puzzling me, but I thought I must have missed something. But on thinking about it, SCOTUS has interpreted the 6th AMD to say that the right of appeal is statutory. I'm not entirely sure that Opinion controls. Basically, there judge must apply a law that could lead to an unjust decision as a basis. Knowing that jury or prosecutorial misconduct can be appealable, but it may have to meet that unjust decision thing. I guess I would argue that this is an abuse of discretion by the judge. I guess it will get hashed out on the appeal of the decision of the case, assuming he loses.
