(DCNF)—Judge Juan Merchan again declined to recuse from former President Donald Trump’s New York case on Tuesday, denying that his daughter’s alleged ties to Vice President Kamala Harris create a conflict.
Merchan wrote Trump offered “nothing new” for the court to consider, but merely “repeated arguments that have already been denied by this and higher courts.” Trump, who was convicted in May on 34 counts for falsifying business records, has argued since before the start of his trial that Merchan should recuse from the case due to his daughter’s work at the political consulting firm Authentic Campaigns, which provides services to Democratic clients.
“This Court now reiterates for the third time, that which should already be clear — innuendo and mischaracterizations do not a conflict create,” Merchan wrote. “Recusal is therefore not necessary, much less required.”
NEW: Juan Merchan denies Trump’s 3rd motion to recuse based on his daughter’s growing and thriving Dem consulting business.

Trump’s attorneys wrote in a July 31 letter that Merchan’s daughter “has a long-standing relationship with Harris, including work for political campaigns.”
“She has obtained—and stands to obtain in the future extensive financial, professional, and personal benefits from her relationship with Harris,” his attorneys wrote.
“Although Authentic restricted its Twitter account following scrutiny of the recusal issue, the company’s public Twitter profile currently features Harris,” Trump’s attorneys continued. “According to public reports around July 29, 2024, Authentic’s founder—a partner and colleague of Your Honor’s daughter—leads a group called ‘White Dudes for Harris,’ which has raised millions of dollars for Harris’s current campaign against President Trump.”
District Attorney Alvin Bragg’s office argued in an Aug 1 response that Trump’s attorneys identified “no new facts.”
“This regurgitated showing does not come close to meeting the standard to renew,” prosecutors wrote.

Controlling Protein Is One of the Globalists’ Primary Goals
Between the globalists, corporate interests, and our own government, the food supply is being targeted from multiple angles. It isn’t just silly regulations and misguided subsidies driving natural foods away. Bird flu, sabotaged food processing plants, mysterious deaths of entire cattle herds, arson attacks, and an incessant push to make climate change the primary consideration for all things are combining for a perfect storm to exacerbate the ongoing food crisis.
The primary target is protein. Specifically, they’re going after beef as the environmental boogeyman. They want us eating vegetable-based proteins, lab-grown meat, or even bugs instead of anything that walked the pastures of America. This is why we launched a long-term storage prepper beef company that provides high-quality food that’s shelf-stable for up to 25-years.
At Prepper All-Naturals, we believe Americans should be eating real food today and into the future regardless of what the powers-that-be demand of us. We will never use lab-grown beef. We will never allow our cattle to be injected with mRNA vaccines. We will never bow to the draconian diktats of the climate change cult.
Visit Prepper All-Naturals and use promo code “veterans25” to get 25% off plus free shipping on Ribeye, NY Strip, Tenderloin, and other high-quality cuts of beef. It’s cooked sous vide, then freeze dried and packaged with no other ingredients, just beef. Stock up for the long haul today.
