The federal judge presiding over the Michael Cohen case finds herself at the center of one of the toughest legal brawls of the Trump era -- but District Judge Kimba Wood is no stranger to the spotlight.
She has a colorful and potentially controversial past that could arise as the case involving President Trump's personal attorney moves forward. Trump allies were quick to note that Wood once was considered for attorney general by then-President Bill Clinton -- and she even officiated the wedding of left-wing billionaire George Soros.

You just can't make this stuff up, the Judiciary is just as corrupt and part of the Swamp as anything else.
1. Bill Clinton Once Wanted Wood to Be His Attorney General & Hillary Clinton Was Involved in the Process
...
5. Wood Presided Over the Wedding of George Soros & Was Once Called a āLife-Long Democratā

Actually, I think you can make this stuff up. In fact, I think some right-wing liar did in fact make it up. Thatās what they do. Then Gullibles like you fall for it.
Itās called fake news.
I will never ever believe anything right-wing conspiracy theorists say. Ever.

this is just a 'coincidence', nothing more. Any correlation with inconvenient timing or past appointments is purely luck.
Impartiality is of utmost importance. If she was in any way conflicted, she would recluse herself straight away. Just the insinuation of impropriety is a bit crass. (this is the part where you should feel guilty for bringing this up)

Iāve never felt the need to research it thoughly, but I suspect if I look it up soros is just your average person who is a big fan of unions or something..
In Britain, Black Wednesday (Sept.16, 1992) is known as the day that speculators broke the pound. They didn't actually break it, but they forced the British government to pull it from the European Exchange Rate Mechanism (ERM). Joining the ERM was part of Britain's effort to help the unification of the European economies. However, in the imperialistic style of old, she had tried to stack the deck.
...
Spotting the writing on the wall, Britain upped its interest rates to the teens to attract people to the pound, but speculators, George Soros among them, began heavy shorting of the currency.
The British government gave in and withdrew from the ERM as it became clear that it was losing billions trying to buoy its currency artificially. Although it was a bitter pill to swallow, the pound came back stronger because the excess interest and high inflation were forced out of the British economy following the beating. Soros pocketed $1 billion on the deal and cemented his reputation as the premier currency speculator in the world.
BILLIONAIRE investor George Soros took out a staggering ā¬100MILLION bet that a major German bank would collapse after Britain decisions to cut ties with the crumbling EU.
The man who "broke the Bank of England" took a short position of 0.51 per cent in Deutsche Bank shares on Friday - the day after the people of Britain backed Brexit.
In growing signs that desperate Angela Merkel's economy is struggling in the wake of the nation's decision to leave the EU - Soros Fund Management said its short position was now 0.46 per cent - suggesting it had begun to take profits from the trade.
Since the momentous decision, shares at Deutsche have dramatically slumped.
At one point, shares were down by more than 13 per cent compared with Friday's high point.
