A group of more than 75 former federal and state judges has strongly opposed the nomination of Emil Bove, Donald Trump’s former personal attorney, to the 3rd US Circuit Court of Appeals. Bove, who would serve a lifetime appointment if confirmed, faces serious allegations about his conduct during his time as a high-ranking Justice Department official.
According to CNN, during his confirmation hearing last month, Bove denied multiple corruption accusations, stating, “I am not anybody’s henchman. I’m not an enforcer. I’m a lawyer from a small town who never expected to be in an arena like this.”
