How can the citizens hold corrupt judges accountable?

[-] Nougat@fedia.io 6 points 1 month ago

Since Federal judges have lifetime appointments, the ability for citizens to hold corrupt judges accountable is extremely limited.

Seriously though, isn't that exactly what a new Trump administration now can and probably will do?

[-] Wiz@midwest.social 2 points 1 month ago

Yes, exactly. But Biden is very concerned with norms.

Haha these people are fucking criminally stupid, I can't help but think of them like Sideshow Bob walking into rakes, but somehow sadder, due to the butterfly effects of their actions on the people of the US. How stupid do you have to be to be this cruel.
