Wow. So basically we're down to two branches of the government, since executive can now eliminate judicial if they don't do as told.
Wonderful.
No, the Executive always appointed Judges and the Senate always confirmed. Judges don't just grow on trees for people to pick any flavor they want when in season.
But their jobs could not be held hostage until now, correct?

This doesn't sound good at all. It sets the system up for more corruption. The swamp is turning into a sewer.
It is cleaning the swamp.

When I first saw the article I was thinking Nationwide but in actuality it is about certain branches of the federal government appointing their own judges.. Talk about a scheme to get stuff approved for the deep state ! When I first thought the article was nation wide... after my surprise it was "How to heck could that ever work" ?
Judges are supposed to be impartial. They have a solemn duty to uphold our laws. Decisions made by judges can decide the fate of not just one person, but millions. Judges that preside over federal issues can very well affect the lives of every last American.
I totally agree with that statement..except I do believe there are extenuating circumstances that should also be evaluated in certain cases.
The President—who has authority to appoint federal judges—was cut out of the loop. He would play a crucial role in deciding if judges should stand or not. Instead, the SEC had free rein. Not anymore.
This ruling can open the door for Trump to reevaluate numerous, questionable judge seats. Judges that are clearly letting their bias get in the way of their job might be in trouble. Trump can allow his cabinet to take stock of sitting judges and decide if they should, in fact, stick around.
The Swamp is springing leaks all over the place !
Now before someone's head explodes it will be the same for the next President and all those who follow

Yay. Let President Trump draw first blood with these people who practice politics from the bench.
Good riddance!!
I hope somebody figures out how to do that to the politically inclined 'justices' who sit on the Supreme Court as well.
Until the swamp is completely drained.
