In the latest episode of the Deep State circus that’s turned our justice system into a bad joke, a 92-year-old federal judge appointed by none other than Bill Clinton back in the ’90s has been assigned to oversee the high-profile case against Venezuelan socialist dictator Nicolás Maduro in New York.

This is the same judge who has a track record of rulings that seem tailor-made to thwart President Trump’s agenda and protect left-wing interests.

U.S. District Judge Alvin K. Hellerstein, who took senior status way back in 2011, but somehow keeps popping up in major cases.

He has issued several controversial rulings adverse to Donald Trump and his administration. These rulings have spanned Trump’s time as a private citizen, his first presidency, and his current second term.

92 years old?

These fricking judges are power mad. They need to be forced to retire at 75.

Aside from the partisan nature of the judge, the assignment of this case to a judge who has taken senior status is mind-boggling.

He was assigned it in 2020.

Because this was an ongoing case against Maduro.


Don’t like a Clinton judge got it, but it shows Trump didn’t just do this on a whim.

I'm unsure why they even brought him into NY jurisdiction. Surely there are other locations just as suitable and not as inherently belligerent to the administration.

Will CNN and the msm chime in over this judges age and mental acuity?
OMB is 14 years his junior and is damn near an invalid in their eyes.

Why, in Jackson we had the goon squad case assigned to Senior U.S. District Judge Tom Lee. 82 years old when he got the case. Handled it fine.

It does not matter. There will be charges filed on Maduro and his wife in Venezuela instantly by the new Sheriff of Caracas. Turn them loose so they can spend their time in a Venezuelan prison.

Please. Do it!!
