In what ways are courts, judges, and justices shielded from politics and political pressure? in what ways are they vulnerable to political pressure?

Many Federal Courts have lifetime appointments, that is, once you are on you are on for life.

This allows Judges to develop a body of work over time that is largely shielded from shifting political winds.

These Judges, however, first have to get through the door. The confirmation process, especially in recent memory, is often a political bloodbath.

Some states do the Judicial Branch differently, having regular elections for their judges. This means that Judges run like any other politician. Their job at the end is just different.

Additionally, Courts can be susceptible to political pressure during budget season. Courts rarely have the ability to levy enough in the way of legal fees to self-sustain, so budgets can come from legislature. If the legislature is upset with the Court, this can turn into a political process.

two jet streams that directly affect the formation of weather in the continental part are a polar jet and a subtropical jet. they are responsible for the transportation of weather systems, which directly affect people. the polar front is the boundary between cold air from the north pole and warmer equatorial air. both the polar jet and the subtropical jet blow from the west to the east, and follow the boundary between cold and warm air.

the strongest jet streams are polar jets, while subtropical jets are somewhat weaker.

the right answer is c. the polar jet stream is generaly stronger than the subtropical jet stream.
