Senate votes to confirm Trump’s defense lawyer Bove to U.S. appeals court
Washington – In the party line vote on Tuesday, the Senate confirmed to a lifetime of a lifetime at the US appeal court in Philadelphia, a loyal ally, Emil J. Bove and the Ministry of Justice, President Trump’s defense lawyer. The vote was 49 to 50.
The 44 -year -old Ope was a highly controversial judicial candidate for pioneering a liquidation of prosecutors and FBI agents working on growing cases on January 6, 2021, not because of their legal views.
Before this year, the Ministry of Justice had a tradition of keeping politics away from law enforcement officers. But Bove and Atty. General Pam Bondi saw his duties that President Trump fulfilled his wishes, including plans to bring accusations against the 1,500 Trump ally, who suppressed prosecutors and himself or Capitol and fought the police.
In the first weeks of Trump’s second period, Bove served as the acting chairman of the Ministry of Justice before his approved by Bondi Senate.
Fove also ordered federal prosecutors in New York to leave the charges of bribery and corruption against Mayor Eric Adams. The movement asked many of the mayor to resign as an unethical agreement to win the cooperation of the administration in the country’s illegal completion of immigrants in the country.
Bove also played a key role in the conflict with a federal judge to deport the Venezuelalans into a brutal prison in El Salvador. A former Ministry of Justice Chief Public Prosecutor-Whistleblower said that Bove should ignore the orders from the judge to government lawyers who tried to stop the exiles.

The Bove is not likely to have much impact on the 3rd circuit court. 14 Judge Pennsylvania, New Jersey and Delaware appeals. Bove has no experience as a judge and did not write on legal or constitutional issues.
However, if the justice Clarence Thomas or Samuel A. Alito will retire in the next three years, Trump can nominate him to the Supreme Court.
His nomination was unusual from the legal community.
In a July 15 letter to the Senate, 80 former and retired judges told the superiority of the law and respected the federal courts. They said, “The terrible recording of the law, abuse of power, abuse of power, and disqualifying him for this position, the terrible record of the law.
More than 900 former former Ministry of Justice lawyer signed a letter to the Senate that said, biri It is unbearable for us to promote the Ministry of Justice to one of the highest courts in the land ”.
Maine Republican Senator Susan Collins became the first Republican to declare that he was against his candidacy.
Iz We must have judges who will comply with the rule of law and the constitution and who do so regardless of what their personal views may be, ”he said. “Some of the actions of Mr. Bove in his political profile and leadership roles in the Ministry of Justice allow me to conclude that it will not serve as impartially.”
Collins and Sen from Alaska. Lisa Murkowski was the only Republicans who voted against the Bove.
