  • Communities need to be Retro or Retro-adjacent.
  • Please don't upload pornographic content. (use an external image host for that)

Immigration judges are not really judges at all. They are regular civil service employees of the Executive Office of Immigration Review (EOIR). That's why they can be fired like this.

Federal district and appellate court judges are appointed by the President, but they serve for life and cannot be fired except by impeachment.
