The House Judiciary Committee announced an investigation into Judge Juan Merchan’s daughter’s Democrat fundraising firm. The firm served as the director of digital persuasion for then-presidential candidate Kamala Harris.
In a letter addressed to Loren Merchan, the committee believes Authentic Campaigns’s fundraising firm has political ties to now-presumptive Democratic nominee Harris and other high-profile Democratic figures.

Merchan’s firm received an $8 million check from Rep. Adam Schiff’s (D-CA) campaign, as well as payments from Rep. Dan Goldman (D-CA) and Gov. Gretchen Whitmer (D-MI).
In 2020, the Biden-Harris campaign also paid Authentic Campaigns, which focuses on “digital marketing and fundraising,” more than $2 million in one month alone.
The letter states, “The Committee on the Judiciary is conducting oversight of politically motivated prosecutions by state and local officials. “At a minimum, there is a perception that you and Authentic Campaigns could profit considerably from President Trump’s prosecution in a forum overseen by your father.”
“Experts have raised substantial concerns with Judge Merchan, your father, refusing to recuse himself from President Trump’s case despite your work on behalf of President Trump’s political adversaries,” the letter continued, adding that Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg’s political persecution against former President Donald Trump was “a convoluted and novel legal theory” used to charge the Republican that officials had already declined to pursue.
