Recently, another whistleblower approached the Department of Justice’s watchdog with serious allegations. He claims that Emile Bove, a senior official currently nominated for a judgeship, allegedly suggested ignoring court orders during a significant legal dispute related to immigration.
This whistleblower, a former Department of Justice attorney in the Office of Immigration Litigation, reported that documents submitted to the DOJ Inspector General’s Office support his testimony that Bove attempted to mislead federal judges during an active deportation campaign that took place this spring.
“I believe it would be extremely dangerous for such a person to receive a lifetime appointment as a federal appellate judge.”
