The U.S. Senate on July 29 confirmed Emil Bove, the former personal lawyer of President Donald Trump, to a role on a federal appellate court.
In a 50–49 vote with only Republicans in support, Bove was confirmed to the U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals for the Third Circuit. Two Republicans, Sens. Susan Collins (R-Maine) and Lisa Murkowski (R-Alaska), opposed the confirmation.
