"Ever since Emil Bove came back into government following Donald Trump's return to office, he's found himself mired in controversy. As the deputy attorney general at the start of Trump's term, Bove was accused of corruptly dismissing a high-profile criminal indictment over the objections of line prosecutors and a U.S. attorney. Around that time, he also allegedly told members of the Justice Department that they should tell the courts " fuck you""
"On Tuesday night, Bove, now a Trump-appointed judge on the 3 rd Circuit Court of Appeals, committed a new foul. He attended a Trump rally in Pennsylvania during which the president called Joe Biden a "son of a bitch" and said that Democrats are "bad people" and "sick people." Within less than 24 hours, a complaint was filed against Bove, accusing him of "abject partisanship" that is unacceptable for a member of the judiciary."
Emil Bove returned to government after Donald Trump's return to office and has faced repeated controversies. As deputy attorney general early in Trump's term, he was accused of corruptly dismissing a high-profile criminal indictment over objections from line prosecutors and a U.S. attorney. He allegedly told Justice Department members to tell the courts " fuck you" to block attempts to stop the president's unlawful deportations to third-party countries without due process. Bove now serves as a Trump-appointed judge on the 3rd Circuit Court of Appeals. He attended a Pennsylvania Trump rally where the president attacked Democrats and insulted Joe Biden. A judicial misconduct complaint alleges Bove showed abject partisanship and violated the nearly 50-year-old Code of Conduct for United States Judges.
