13. I really hope Judge Garland doesn't get fired

Der Fuhrer likes to punish all who stand in his way

[dflprincess]

17. He can't fire a judge

which may drive him over the edge.

[meadowlander]

18. Can they put pressure on his to recuse himself over the perceived conflict of interest?

[Sanity Claws]

21. My recollection on how such allegations are handled

If an attorney believes that a judge is not able to hear a case impartiality, then can file a motion to have the judge recuse himself. The problem with that is that the judge accused of not being impartial hears the case. That judge of course determines that he is impartial.
Such a motion is a good way to piss off a judge.
Judges have a lot of discretion and you don't want to piss them off. They can exercise their discretion in ways that don't create appealable issues.

20. Might appoint him to some BS position somewhere

to get him out of the way. Team Trump will find creative ways to punish their enemies somehow.

[dflprincess]

31. I don't know if they can make a judge change positions once they have been confirmed for the

position they're in.

But someone up the food chain can assign that judge nothing but BS cases. Supposedly Judge Fred Nichol never got an important case after he dismissed the charges against Russell Means & Dennis Banks during the Wounded Knee trial. His reason for doing so was "It is true that a judgment of dismissal is not the only possible remedy in this situation, i. e. a new trial could be ordered. It is my belief, however, that the misconduct by the government in this case is so aggravated that a dismissal must be entered in the interests of justice."

Even though the 8th District upheld his ruling, he had still pissed someone off.

30. I just read Trump signed an executive order to slash regulations. So can Garland

deem that unconstitutional?

[fountainofyouth]
