Today unjust judges are todays congress and executive branch and can deny or allow what ever they decide and do what is right in their eyes, there was a day when all they did was interpret existing law, today judges legislate according to their self will.
It is so communist.

Federal judges are for all practical purposes, politicians. Unelected and unaccountable for life.
This is one of the glaring weaknesses of the U.S. constitution. I understand the rationale for lifetime appointments, but it's somewhat naive and idealistic, and was instituted when men were more honorable.
To correct it would require an amendment requiring judges to stand for election, just like other federal offices. I don't know about other states, but judges in Texas are all elected, even Supreme Court justices.
