I am prejudice and biased against federal judges. Over the decades I’ve seen them constantly go against things they should not have. They side with the deep state agendas.
I know a very successful self employed lawyer who started out as an ADA assistant district attorney. Several others in the same county did it. Many people, tops in their trade, break away from the boring limited salary.
“”The annual salary of a U.S. District Court judge increased to $199,100 from $174,000.Jan 13, 2014. Kavanaugh currently serves on the U.S. Court of Appeals for the D.C. Circuit, where judges make $220,600 a year,
the Chief Justice, currently John Roberts, makes $267,000. These salaries usually increase by $2,000-$3,000 each year.””
In a sense, if you are a lawyer $199k is chump change. We have cops here making more than that. Believe me, you would not want a lawyer that works for peanuts, defending you.
