A judge in Utah was suspended without pay for six months last week after criticizing President Trump — both online and in court — for his “political incompetence.”
Judge Michael Kwan, who’s been a justice court judge in Taylorsville, a suburb of Salt Lake City, since 1998. Between 2016 and 2017, he shared inappropriate posts on Facebook and LinkedIn about the president, according to Utah’s State Supreme Court.
Kwan violated the judicial code of conduct and lessened “the reputation of our entire judiciary,” Justice John Pearce wrote in an opinion on Wednesday.
