∙ 12y agoThis is the judicial branch: federal courts and the US Supreme Court.
Unlike local, county, and state judges, federal judges are not elected. They are either appointed by the President and confirmed by the US Senate (e.g. district judges, appeals judges) or appointed through a vote by district judges (e.g. magistrate judges).
