President Donald Trump announced he is nominating Justice Department official and his former defense attorney Emil Bove to serve on the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Third Circuit, a controversial nomination that would come as he continues to attack so-called “activist” judges for blocking his agenda.
In a post on Truth Social, Trump praised Bove as “SMART, TOUGH, and respected by everyone.”
“He will end the Weaponization of Justice, restore the Rule of Law, and do anything else that is necessary to, MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN,” Trump added.
There are currently two vacancies on the court, and if confirmed, Bove he would serve a lifetime appointment on the federal bench.
