If even a fraction of what this letter says is true, Emil Bove should be prosecuted for criminal contempt and disbarred.
In no way should he be confirmed to the United States Court of Appeals for the Third Circuit.

Trump didn't win 50% of the popular vote.
The GOP has slim margins in both the House and Senate.
His approval ratings are tanking.
He does not have a mandate.
Do not let him gaslight you into believing he is all powerful.
He's not.
