What does a federal judge have to do to be removed?

[djaychela]

Die? (Not meant as a threat!)

[FBISurveillance]

A Federal Judge can be a) arrested by FBI; b) impeached by their state legislatures; c) in some states dismissed by a public vote.

[dredmorbius]

Be impeached or subject to other means of removal, if you'll accept this Yale Law Review article:

The Constitution authorizes the impeachment of federal judges, but it nowhere says that they can be removed only through impeachment. Nor do the Constitution’s relevant provisions easily lend themselves to any such reading.
