Pam Bondi's New Court Filing in The Epstein Case & The Senate Confirms Emil Bove To Federal Bench - Glenn Kirschner
With a big "FU" to the federal judiciary and the American People, Senate Republicans confirm Donald Trump's former criminal defense attorney, Emil Bove, to the 3rd Circuit Federal Court of Appeals.
The Republicans did not care that Bove was credibly accused of telling DOJ lawyers that they would need to tell federal court judges "FU" and defy their court orders if those orders interfered with Trump's deportation efforts.
In a related story, Attorney General Pam Bondi seemed to take Bove's advice. In a midnight filing in the Epstein and Maxwell grand jury transcripts matter, Bondi refused to comply with a judge's directive to state whether, before filing the motion to unseal, the Government (meaning the DOJ) notified the victims of the motion to unseal.
This video reviews these two sad developments that find the DOJ flailing and failing as an institution. - Glenn Kirschner - 07/30/2025.
