No, a judge cannot raise and argue an affirmative defense in a case. The role of a judge is to remain impartial and ensure that the law is applied fairly, while the responsibility for presenting affirmative defenses lies with the parties involved in the case, typically the defendant. Judges may, however, guide the proceedings and clarify legal standards for the parties.
Sacco and Vanzetti. Nicola Sacco and Bartolomeo Vanzetti were Italian born anarchists and labour activists who lived in the United States. In the 20's they were framed for a robbery in which a security guard was murdered. Although they were not guilty, they were both executed on the basis of flimsy evidence. During the 20's there was an extreme red scare and the authorities were intent upon crushing any form of dissent. The judge in the case was quoted in the case: This man, although he may not have actually committed the crime attributed to him, is nevertheless morally culpable, because he is the enemy of our existing institutions. The foreman of the jury also believed they were enemies of the state and should be hanged whether they were guilty or not. The judge later boasted to his friends about his giving the death sentence to Sacco and Vanzetti: Did you see what I did to those anarchist bastards the other day Sacco and Vanzetti were political scapegoats. They appealled their death sentence for 6 years and were executed August 23rd 1927. After their execution, thousands took to the streets in protest all around the world.

Not at all. He refused to consider any plausible evidence and even referred to Sacco and Vanzetti as "anarchist bastards".
Judge Webster Thayer presided over the trial of Sacco and Vanzetti and was later criticized for displaying bias against the defendants, as well as for failing to provide a fair trial. Many believe he allowed his personal prejudice and anti-immigrant sentiments to influence his decision-making during the trial.

The judge was impartial and always ruled fairly.
An impartial judge could help us settle this dispute.
Impartial means "fair," "even-handed," "non-biased."
One who is knowledgeable, wise and impartial.
Hopefully, all of 'em.
