Emil Bove, thumbing his nose at America, is making a mockery of the rule of law.

Emil Bove should not be a federal judge and must face accountability for his actions as both a lawyer and judge.

His lack of concern — or outright disdain — for the rule of law was abundantly clear throughout his short time in the leadership of the Justice Department.


As Fix the Court’s Gabe Roth detailed in a judicial complaint submitted to the Third Circuit’s chief judge on Wednesday, “It should have been obvious to Judge Bove, either at the start of the rally or fairly close to it, that this was a highly charged, highly political event that no federal judge should have been within shouting distance of.“

Roth argues that Bove’s attendance violates judicial ethics canons and that he should be “admonished for his behavior” and face any other discipline “deem[ed] fit.” Roth also noted, but did not opine on, “question[s] of recusal“ in Trump-related cases that are almost certain to arise — appropriately so — following Bove’s attendance at the rally.
