How do you remove an unelected federal judge? He can only be impeached for "high crimes and misdemeanors" by politicians who would never have the stones to do it?

Judges can be removed by ‘bad behavior’, as defined by the House and Senate.

There are also ways within the Judiciary Branch to neuter rogue judges.

Get a transcript of his remarks and report him to the local attorney grievance committee and local commission on judicial conduct.

The day will come when the Democrats disregard for the rule of law will convince the Republicans to do the same, and it will not be a pretty picture.

They will awaken a silent majority.

Time for Trump to double down and start calling for impeachment of the judge. It’s been done before and it’ll happen again, just ask Alcee Hastings.

"Authority is vested in those to whom it applies." (author unknown)

If you reject the judges claimed authority, he has none.

Conservatives need to learn to stand up or risk losing ALL of their freedoms.

Congress has the power to control the federal judiciary. Proper vetting of judges when they are appointed is the first. The Senate should not be approving activist judges. Impeachment is another power. Activist Judges who are not administering the law should be removed. Congress has failed miserably in failing to remove unlawful or incompetent judges.

The Constitution provided for only one federal court, the Supreme Court. The Constitution left it to Congress to provide for lower courts. Congress has the power under the Constitution to define the jurisdiction, role and scope of the lower courts. Congress today can pass a law to restrict the power of lower federal court judges to halt the enforcement of laws and regulations. In addition it can forbid lower courts from declaring laws unconstitutional.

We must also remember the power of the Supreme Court to declare laws unconstitutional was not given the Judicial branch in the Constitution. In Marbury vs. Madison the Supreme Court decreed itself as having the power. Congress could just as easily decree the Supreme Court does not have that power.

Likewise for much of our history the federal courts did not have superiority over the state courts. The power of the federal courts to overturn state court decisions was another power seized by the federal judiciary, not granted to it by the Constitution or through legislation.

The excesses of the federal courts exist due to the failure of the legislative and executive branches to act as checks on the tyranny of the black robed judges. Unfortunately the nation today is politically polarized and one side (the socialist Democrats) use the courts to create laws and outcomes they cannot realize through the legislative process. With Congress divided as it is, there will be no legislative action to reign in the courts.

The only way in today’s environment to restrain the tyranny of the federal bench is a Constitutional Amendment resulting from a convention of the states.

Dig into his background; find the dirt and filth. It’s there, somewhere. Expose him publicly. When enough people become enraged, he’ll (maybe) resign.

Congress: “We have oversight responsibilities regarding the Executive Branch. We intend to exercise that through as amnay investigations of the President as allowable.”

Citizen: “So, will you also be exercising your Constitutional responsibility of oversight regarding the judiciary?”

I hope Ben Shapiro is happy with this judge - after all he did ALL HE COULD to have Hillary nominating hundreds like him.

Lawyers are bottom feeding liars and cheats. Judges are the elite of lawyers.

Probably all you can do is to abolish the position. Even then he may be able to bump someone or be reassigned somehow. Probably some kind of guarantee of a job for life.

I’d tell him his next job is in a broom closet at a sewage plant but that he saves pay of course.
