I pressed Bove on this at his nomination hearing. Here was his disqualifying answer.

Republicans discounted Reuveni's detailed complaint. They tried to cast doubt on it.
Then Reuveni provided extensive emails, documents, and text messages to the committee that backed up what he said.
Then, former DOJ attorney Erez Reuveni blew the whistle, sharing that Bove told DOJ attorneys to consider telling the courts ‘f**k you’” if they ordered a halt to any of his deportation efforts.

Bove, Trump’s former personal defense attorney, has been nominated for a position on the court of appeals.
While at DOJ, he worked to reshape the department to carry out the president’s dirty work. To dismiss cases against his allies and take aim at his enemies list.
BREAKING: New documents and testimony make it clear that Emil Bove urged DOJ officials to defy court orders – then misled the Judiciary Committee about it.
The facts are disqualifying. And the timeline is damning.
Let's break it down. 🧵
Donald Trump is trying to distract in every way he can.
Republicans in Congress are paralyzed by the demands of their base.
And Americans are seeing right through his Epstein Files coverup.
Fox News took Jeanine Pirro off air because "she's crazy" and "nuts." Their words, not mine.
Now we're going to trust her with the lives and liberty of the people of DC?
This is just absurd.
The Trump Administration's cuts to our laboratories will:
-Undermine our economic competitiveness
-Harm innovation
-Weaken national security
I'm joining @padilla.senate.gov and @lofgren.house.gov in urging the the Department of Energy and Office of Management and Budget to reverse these cuts.
Republicans just blocked an amendment to require the release of the Epstein files.
Wonder why.
Exactly. The cover-up is clear as day.
And the American people see right through it.
For the party which claimed that cancel culture and censorship were plaguing our nation, they sure do love to cancel and censor anything Donald Trump doesn't like or want to hear...
We need to bring Bondi and Patel into the Judiciary Committee to testify about this. Now.
In the last few years, natural disasters have devastated our farming communities.
I sent a letter urging USDA to ensure our farmers get the financial assistance they need to recover, repair infrastructure and equipment, and keep our country fed with the best agricultural production in the world.
What happened to this Republican Party?
These senseless cuts to the @nws.noaa.gov will result in forecast delays that have deadly consequences.
When it comes to fires, floods, and other disasters – this endangers the lives of millions.
I'm pushing back against these cuts and fighting to protect all Californians.
Just finished taping with Stephen Colbert who announced his show was cancelled.
If Paramount and CBS ended the Late Show for political reasons, the public deserves to know. And deserves better.
The massive transfer of the personal data of millions of Medicaid recipients should alarm every American. This massive violation of our privacy laws must be halted immediately.
It will harm families across the nation and only cause more citizens to forego lifesaving access to health care.
Natural disasters are proliferating, and home insurance is becoming more unaffordable and unavailable.
Today, I'm introducing the INSURE Act to create a federal reinsurance program – to lower insurance costs and keep families and small businesses protected.
@booker.senate.gov and I just tried to force a vote to allow the prosecutor who blew the whistle on Emil Bove to appear before the Judiciary Committee.
Republicans ignored the rules – and rammed Bove through.
All that matters to them is power and appeasing their Dear Leader.
