The article discusses the implications of Emil Bove, a personal lawyer for Trump and political appointee, being considered for a position on the Third Circuit Court of Appeals. Citing concerns about the qualifications and competencies of judicial nominees associated with the Trump administration, it raises the alarm about potential further declines in judicial integrity as Bove is associated with dubious legal arguments. His controversial political maneuvers, particularly post-election, are analyzed, reflecting on his lack of professional restraint and the broader consequences for U.S. law.
After the election, Bove took a leading role in the Justice Department, taking the initiative on key policy decisions because no career official - either Republican or Democrat - was willing to sign their name to the filings.
Bove, a sort of bargain Roy Cohn, served in the Southern District U.S. Attorney's Office for years, but somehow that experience did not induce the proper level of professional shame to keep him from advancing some of the zaniest of Trump's NY criminal case arguments.
