Emil Bove should be in jail for crimes against our democracy, and his confirmation underscores the GOP’s full dissent into criminal conspiracy against the rule of law. A true rebuilding includes stripping this man of any titles, honors, or scraps of power.
NEW: Republicans confirm former Trump lawyer Emil Bove to lifetime appeals court perch

The vote is 50-49.

He's confirmed with only GOP votes.

Democrats + Murkowski + Collins vote NO.

(Hagerty missed the vote.)

As major American cities brace for potential terrorist attacks in retaliation against the U.S. air strikes on Iran, it’s reassuring to know that Trump just appointed a 22-year-old former gardener and grocery store assistant to lead U.S. terror prevention. 🥺

The only people who benefit from Trump and the Republicans’ budget bill? Billionaires. Everyone else gets cuts—to healthcare, food assistance, and basic services. They’re robbing the working class to bankroll the ultra-wealthy.

Last week we scared Dems off of this. The bill stalled. If you want this bill dead, we've got to be louder than the crypto lobbyists. Cheer on the Dems like @warren.senate.gov fighting it. And if you're represented by any of the turncoats, tell them to change course. bsky.app/profile/indi...
🚨 We’re hearing the crypto-friendly bill that would enable Trump’s corruption could get another Senate vote on Thursday. Democrats can block this bill, but that’s not going to happen unless they hear from a lot of us. Let’s get to work: indivisible.org/resource/cal...

Senator Lisa Murkowski just said that she and her colleagues are afraid & anxious because retaliation from the president is real. This is not normal or right. Our leader is a tyrant, but the same people who are scared, are the ones who could actually stop him.

"With Donald Trump back in the White House, access to contraception is, sadly, not something that people can bank on anymore — whether they know it or not. This issue didn’t get much airtime during the chaotic 2024 campaign, but birth control has been in conservatives’ crosshairs for years."
