The Congress.
The President appoints federal judges, including Supreme Court justices, with the advice and consent of the Senate. That means the Senate must approve the President's nomination by a simple majority vote before the appointment process can be completed.
For appointed positions within the US federal government, the President and the Executive Branch nominate appointees, who must then be approved by Congress. This includes federal judges, US attorneys, and the heads of the various departments, bureaus, and agencies.

Presidential nominations of federal court judges are made with the "advice and consent" of the Senate, just as Supreme Court nominations are. The Senate must confirm the nomination by a simple majority of those voting in order for the judge to be commissioned.
Congress can impeach the President if he commits a major crime. Congress can override the President's vetoes and Congress must approve of the President's nominations to federal positions, like federal judges.
