The Federal Justice System is completely under the control of the President of the United States. This has provided the political party in power when the appointments are made to make politically motivated choices ahead of qualifications and priority of justice.

Whoever controls the courts controls the nation. The Supreme Court, and lower federal courts, now control what proposed laws, legislature and presidential decisions will become law. In essence this makes the courts the most powerful branch of government. And, unlike the president’s veto power, the final decision of the Supreme Court cannot be overridden. It is frightening that 9 individuals, selected by partisan presidents for life have this kind of power.

There are 94 Federal District Courts. Each court district has a U.S. Attorney. The district Judge and the District Attorney are nominated by the President and confirmed by the Senate. They serve LIFE terms.These judges are often called “Article III judges” because Article III of the Constitution governs their appointment, tenure, and payment.
Generally, Congress determines the jurisdiction of the federal courts. In some cases, however — such as in the example of a dispute between two or more U.S. states — the Constitution grants the Supreme Court original jurisdiction, an authority that cannot be stripped by Congress.

The 94 federal judicial districts are organized into 12 regional circuits, each of which has a court of appeals. The appellate court’s task is to determine whether or not the law was applied correctly in the trial court. Appeals courts consist of three judges and do not use a jury.

Federal district courts and federal district attorneys interact closely in the judicial process. U.S. Attorneys bring cases before the district courts, presenting evidence, arguing motions, and conducting trials. District court judges oversee these cases, ensuring they proceed according to the law and that justice is served.

Whoever controls the courts controls the nation. The Supreme Court, and lower federal courts, now control what proposed laws, legislature and presidential decisions will become law. In essence this makes the courts the most powerful branch of government. And, unlike the president’s veto power, the final decision of the Supreme Court cannot be overridden. It is frightening that 9 individuals, selected by partisan presidents for life have this kind of power. Every day we see the result. Virtually no law or legislation is passed that does not end up in the Supreme Court.
Yet, probably less the 5% if the American public have any idea of how the Supreme Court got all of this power, which was not originally in the Constitution.

epa – Environmental Protection Agency

epa-0000 Environmental Protection Agency wiki

The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) is an independent executive agency, which means it is not part of any cabinet department. It operates independently to administer environmental protection laws and regulations. The EPA Administrator is a member of the President’s Cabinet, but the agency itself is not housed within a cabinet department.

Finally the Nixon administration made the environment a priority in 1969-1971 and set up a series of major agencies headed by the new EPA. The National Environmental Policy Act of 1969 (NEPA)[11][12] President Nixon signed NEPA into law on January 1, 1970.

The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) was formed in response to growing public concern about environmental pollution and its impact on human health and the natural environment. By the late 1960s, there was increasing awareness and concern about issues such as air and water pollution, hazardous waste disposal, and the effects of industrial chemicals. Several significant events and developments contributed to the creation of the EPA:

  1. Environmental Disasters and Pollution: Incidents like the 1969 Cuyahoga River fire in Cleveland, Ohio, where the river caught fire due to industrial waste and pollution, highlighted the severe pollution problems facing the country.
  2. Public Awareness and Activism: The publication of Rachel Carson’s book “Silent Spring” in 1962 raised awareness about the dangers of pesticides and sparked the modern environmental movement. Additionally, the first Earth Day in 1970 demonstrated widespread public support for environmental protection.
  3. Legislative and Political Support: There was growing bipartisan support in Congress for addressing environmental issues. Existing environmental laws were seen as fragmented and insufficient, necessitating a more coordinated and comprehensive approach.
  4. Need for Centralized Regulation: Before the EPA, environmental responsibilities were scattered among various federal agencies, leading to inefficiencies and gaps in enforcement. A single agency was needed to centralize and streamline environmental regulation and enforcement.

In response to these factors, President Richard Nixon proposed the creation of the EPA. The agency was established by an executive order on December 2, 1970, consolidating various federal environmental responsibilities under one agency to ensure a more effective and cohesive approach to environmental protection and regulation.

Removal of a Supreme Court Justice fb post
Change to the Supreme Court can only come if the congress impeaches and convicts a member of the Supreme Court.
===============
A Supreme Court justice can be removed from office through the impeachment process, which involves two main steps:

  1. Impeachment by the House of Representatives: A justice can be impeached by a majority vote in the House of Representatives. Impeachment is akin to an indictment in criminal law; it means that the House has brought formal charges against the justice.
  2. Trial and Conviction by the Senate: After impeachment, the case goes to the Senate for a trial. The Chief Justice of the Supreme Court presides over the trial if the person being impeached is the President. For other impeachments, including that of a Supreme Court justice, a senior Senator typically presides. A two-thirds majority vote in the Senate is required to convict and remove the justice from office.

This process is outlined in the U.S. Constitution under Article I, Section 2, and Article I, Section 3.

Historical Context

  • No Supreme Court justice has ever been removed from office through impeachment and conviction. The only justice to have been impeached was Samuel Chase in 1804. He was impeached by the House of Representatives on charges of political bias and misconduct, but he was acquitted by the Senate in 1805 and thus remained in office. This makes him the only Supreme Court justice to have faced an impeachment trial.
  • == Changing the number of Supreme Court Justices ====
    Adding new justices to the U.S. Supreme Court requires a change in the number of justices, which is determined by Congress. Here’s the process:
  1. Legislation Proposal: A bill must be introduced in either the House of Representatives or the Senate to change the number of Supreme Court justices. This bill would amend the Judiciary Act, which sets the number of justices.
  2. Congressional Approval: The bill must be passed by both the House and the Senate. It must go through committee reviews, debates, and votes in both chambers. This typically involves extensive discussion and negotiation.
  3. Presidential Signature: If the bill is passed by both the House and the Senate, it is sent to the President. The President can sign the bill into law, veto it, or take no action. If the President vetoes the bill, Congress can override the veto with a two-thirds majority in both the House and the Senate.
  4. Appointment of New Justices: Once the bill is signed into law, creating new positions on the Supreme Court, the President can nominate individuals to fill those positions. These nominations must then be confirmed by the Senate.

Historically, the number of justices has changed several times, but it has been set at nine since 1869. Changing the number of justices is a significant and often controversial process, involving political and legal considerations.

Like everything else in America, prisons have become profit centers.
Private prisons are more dangerous than publicly run facilities. According to a U.S. Department of Justice study covering federal prisons, violent attacks by inmates on correctional staff were 163% higher in private than in public prisons, and inmate-on-inmate assaults were nearly 30% higher.
