It’s just one judge. So why should you care? open.substack.com/pub/joycevan...
In a tragic moment for the judiciary, Senate Republicans, instead of waiting to get all of the facts, rushed to confirm Trump’s former criminal defense lawyer Emil Bove to a judgeship on the Third Cir...
Oh, we know what damage he can do. Alas!
FUCK... Again.. ಠ_ಠ That's all I got.
If one was playing chess and a fully planned move is made
Every one of those Republikkans should face dire consequences for rushing Bove through. The very least of those consequences is to be voted out of office. Once the Dems are back in power, a full blown investigation is warranted to hold all accountable for their traitorous actions.
I care biggly. Too many of trump's lawyers are corrupt and are in positions of power.
I love it when Emil smiles like that. Such joy.
MAGA = NAZI
Corruption is deep... but what else is new. Politics ain't exactly a beach vacation.
Aileen Cannon was just one judge.
The senate is completely worthless. 🤮🤮🤮
Appellate judges "are currently deciding whether the administration can let DOGE access our personal data, [&] whether it can deport people without due process, and whether government services can be cut off w/o congressional action."
No, the Supreme Court's recently decided each of these. Really.
It's not just one judge. Nor even one corrupt gov't official eager to do anything it takes to gain appointment to the federal bench or elevation from one level to a the next. Or willing to ostentatiously violate their oath or even criminal law (say, as petty retribution).
One rotten apple can spoil the barrel.
Just one more corrupted Trump judge for life…
This is a very good read, and should scare everyone who thinks that judges should actually be that 3rd coequal branch of government. To have a lapdog like Bove sitting on the federal appeals court is itself a travesty of justice. I can only hope, under a different admin, that he will be impeached.
Whenever the Democrats get the votes, they should impeach Emil Bove
I'm hoping all is not yet lost in the USA, but this is a bad sign.
😡
Unbelievable! How did this once great country got to this point? Poor education, terrible media and corrupted politicians and courts!
We are screwed and can only hope he suffers a legal problem that gets him off the judges seat
Great article Joyce. The amount of damage he can do over a lifetime on the bench is incalculable. And of course he will he sought after by those wishing to determine the outcome of a case before it oven goes to his court.
Seriously deep sh*t. The take over of the judiciary with soldiers to their leader, rather than the Constitution, is the last wall before mass uprising becomes necessary.
Excellent perspective. Would have been great to have this perspective on the otherwise very informative Staytuned yesterday.
All about Project 2025
Because next summer Alito and Thomas retire and we get him and Cannon on the court before the mid terms
He's not a judge -- he's a bought & paid POV with a position on the bench.
You can dress him up, but he's still a ghoul.
Republicans are becoming known as the antithesis of civilization. They have the kindling, Trump the match. Greed the gasoline.
He’s screwed, as in damn d if he does and damned if he doesn’t. I wonder if he’s also being coerced?
A criminal now sits on a judges bench.
Emil Bove's now-legendary quote about judges is "Tell them to fuck off."
Take a good look at that FACE. Is that not the very typecasting face of "fuck you"?
the American Bar Association should care....he has violated ethical standards and should be held to account - judge or no judge.
…but look at the bright side…his tenure ends when he stops breathing. Unless he’s got jeff altman kind of digs, that’s going to be a monumental feat to continue doing.
Republicans attack favoritism by playing favorites. This is why SCOTUS is so imbalanced.
Remember this guy said “F* the courts.” I’m assuming that applies to any of his rulings as well.
Brought to you by AIPAC, Leonard Leo and Miriam Adelson.
They knew.
Trick question? 😏
The plan has been hatched, Emil Bove will replace Clarence Thomas at SCOTUS before the next election...
Soon he will replace judge Thomas!
Who's going to retire first? Thomas or Alito? All so Bove can get a seat...
Maybe because he is Not qualified Not honest Not working for us Fatboy’s attorney Feel free to add to the list.
Lord love us...sometimes it only takes one...one step at a time...start with one and more will follow...Capitulation starts with one...and look at it now...go to the Smithsonian and look at the Impeachment display...Trump has been removed...as if his two impeachment never happened...sooooo...
Republicans have seriously lost their minds
May the history books fry their asses forever
I believe I am getting an ulcer from what is going in with this admin. This is just sickening.
So do the other judges on the panel just shun him or pretend he’s “just another one of the guys”?
Tillis confirming him proves that as much as republicans might hate Trump personally, they are still very much intent on politicizing the judiciary. We’re not safe with any republican holding any power for any amount of time.
Everyone should care cause it’s a corruption of the justice system and we can’t afford it if we’re going to make it as a country.
thom tillis showed who he was
He looks ready now to return to his crypt before the sun rises. And stop calling them Republicans. They’re all racist braindead zombie MAGATS!
We all care but unfortunately things are rotting from the top in the little people don't really have a say anymore. We've been protesting screaming from the hilltops and the people in charge are bending the knee and cratering our country
Who is he going to benefit? Trump for a while but at 79 and physically and mentally failing Trump may not be around much longer (hopefully). Who is there to follow Trump who is as evil, corrupt and anti-America’s democracy? The extent and application of Bove’s evil may be limited by time.
A day that will also live in infamy...
Because he's evil and will destroy lives and our Constitution.
So was Eileen Cannon.
Making an oath he fully intends to break everyday 🤦🏼♀️. Democracy is over - betrayed by Congress
I feel it will be a very exhausting 3+ years for us.
There will be a good number of criminal judicial judges by the end of Trump's term...America is already f*cked !!!
He was the test case. His ascension to the Bench is the beginning of the end of American Jurisprudence.
Evil Bove is not long for this world.
It starts with one, where will it stop. Some Republicans know what they did is wrong, but are too afraid to stand up and say so (afraid of losing their jobs) while others love being on the gravy train. Until they accept "serve at the will of the people," things will never change.
Bove is not qualified to be a judge. He is not even qualified to be a human being.
I wonder how long it will take for Thomas or Alito to resign so this miserable creature can be named to the Supreme Court. I hope by that time a few of the male Republicans will pay attention to their oath of office.
It didn't start with gas chambers
LYING to the Senate during your Senate Confirmation Hearing surely falls into the category of Bad Behavior, and should result in his Impeachment in the House, and Conviction in the Senate!
Start listing ideas for lists for the Article 3 Reform Act! Review my posts for ones I have already made!
The people looting America will be getting some help.
OMFG
You can make this headline more informative by cutting out the filler words.
The Senate confirms Criminal to Third Circuit Court of Appeals
See? It works.
Mitch McConnell will burn in Hell.
W say that about 5 of the judges on the SC.
WTF is going on ?!!!
This man told Justice Department lawyers to ignore and lie to judges. He will never view cases through the eyes of the constitution of the United States. He will always be vote for Donald Trump. This was a terrible decision.
