Trump considers former defense attorney Emil Bove for federal appeals court vacancy

President Donald Trump is considering Justice Department official Emil Bove, his former defense attorney, for a U.S. appeals court vacancy — a controversial nomination that would come as he continues to attack so-called «activist» judges for blocking his agenda.
Bove, 44, is among those Trump is considering for the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Third Circuit, which covers Pennsylvania, New Jersey and Delaware.
There are currently two vacancies on the court — increasing the odds that Bove’s name could be floated by Trump. If confirmed, he would serve a lifetime appointment on the federal bench.
Bove’s name is not the only one being considered, familiar sources say, and conversations are believed to be in the early stages.

Prior to his installation at the Justice Department, Bove spent nearly 10 years as a U.S. prosecutor for the Southern District of New York.
He also defended Trump in two of his criminal trials following his first term in the White House.
In each of these roles and at DOJ, Bove’s hard-charging tactics have solidified his reputation as a fierce, loyal and, at times, aggressive leader.
At the Justice Department, Bove has emerged as the man behind some of the administration’s most contentious actions — prompting some officials to resign rather than carry out his marching orders.
Shortly after taking office, he sent a memo threatening state and city officials with criminal charges or civil penalties if they failed to comply with the Trump administration’s crackdown on immigration or slow-walked their orders on enforcement.
«Federal law prohibits state and local actors from resisting, obstructing and otherwise failing to comply with lawful immigration-related commands,» Bove said in the memo.

It was Bove who ordered federal prosecutors for the Southern District of New York to file a motion to dismiss charges against New York City Mayor Eric Adams.
That order prompted a string of resignations from personnel, including acting U.S attorney for the section Danielle Sassoon to leave DOJ rather than drop the case.
Bove, along with Edward Sullivan from the Justice Department’s Public Integrity Section, eventually signed on to the motion themselves.
Fox News also reported earlier this year that Bove was behind an exhaustive questionnaire sent to FBI agents detailing their roles in the Jan. 6 investigations.
Questions ranged from agents’ participation in any grand jury subpoenas to whether the agents worked or responded to leads from another FBI field office or if they worked as a case agent for investigations.

Former Justice Department officials have cited concerns that the probe or any retaliatory measures carried out as a result could have a chilling effect on the work of the FBI, including its more than 52 separate field offices.
The group cited in particular the order from acting then-Acting Deputy Attorney General Emil Bove to terminate the entire FBI senior leadership team and the assistant director in charge of the Washington Field Office.

Bove would face a highly uncertain path to confirmation if nominated. The news comes at a time when Democrats have sharply excoriated what they argue are Trump’s attempts to install loyalists to head up the DOJ and FBI.
The White House and Justice Department did not immediately respond to Fox News Digital’s request for comment.

Astronautas de la Crew-10 de SpaceX completaron su misión y regresaron a la Tierra tras cinco meses en la Estación Espacial Internacional

Cuatro astronautas regresaron este sábado a la Tierra tras casi cinco meses en la Estación Espacial Internacional (EEI), según informó el Centro Espacial Kennedy de la NASA. La tripulación, conformada por Anne McClain y Nichole Ayers de la NASA, Takuya Onishi de la Agencia de Exploración Aeroespacial de Japón (JAXA) y Kirill Peskov de Roscosmos, amerizó a las 8:33 horas del Pacífico estadounidense (15:33 GMT) frente a la costa de California, después de desacoplarse de la estación el viernes.
La cápsula Dragon, desarrollada por SpaceX, descendió en el océano Pacífico guiada por paracaídas, completando así la expedición tras 148 días en el laboratorio orbital. El amerizaje marcó la primera vez en casi 50 años que astronautas de NASA retornaron al Pacífico, la última ocasión había sido durante la histórica misión Apollo-Soyuz en 1975, cuando astronautas estadounidenses y soviéticos se encontraron en órbita.
Además, es la primera vez que una misión del programa de vuelos tripulados comerciales aterriza frente a las costas de California, desde que SpaceX decidió cambiar el punto de retorno de Florida a la costa oeste del país para reducir el riesgo de caída de escombros sobre áreas pobladas.
Durante su estancia en la EEI, la tripulación de la Crew-10 realizó una serie de investigaciones científicas destinadas a facilitar futuras misiones fuera de la órbita baja terrestre, según informó la NASA. Parte de esos experimentos estuvo compuesto por estudios biomédicos y tecnológicos, así como investigaciones sensibles al tiempo, tantas de ellas transportadas de regreso a la Tierra para su análisis inmediato.

La misión Crew-10 tiene una relevancia especial debido a su papel en la rotación de tripulaciones en la EEI. Según la fuente, los astronautas llegaron a la estación espacial el pasado 16 de marzo tras despegar desde el Centro Espacial Kennedy en Florida, con el objetivo de reemplazar a los tripulantes asignados previamente al fallido vuelo de demostración de la cápsula Starliner de Boeing. El prolongado fallo en el sistema del nuevo vehículo mantuvo a los astronautas Butch Wilmore y Suni Williams en la estación espacial más de nueve meses, muy por encima de la semana originalmente planeada, lo que llevó a NASA a ordenar el regreso del Starliner vacío y cambiar a la pareja a un vuelo de SpaceX.
Durante su retorno, McClain hizo referencia a “tiempos tumultuosos en la Tierra”, subrayando el valor de la cooperación internacional en la exploración espacial y la capacidad de la humanidad de trabajar unida ante desafíos globales. La comandante señaló que, tras el regreso, esperaba descansar unos días en Houston, mientras que el resto de la tripulación expresó entusiasmo por disfrutar de comodidades como duchas calientes y hamburguesas frescas, tras varios meses en el ambiente cerrado de la EEI.

Este décimo viaje operativo de SpaceX a la EEI destaca por el uso continuado de la cápsula Dragon como medio seguro de traslado entre la órbita y la superficie terrestre. La elección del Pacífico como zona de amerizaje responde a criterios de seguridad, asegurando tanto la integridad de la tripulación como la protección de las muestras científicas, muchas de ellas sumamente sensibles al tiempo y requeridas para experimentos en la Tierra apenas horas después del aterrizaje.
A esta tripulación la ha reemplazado ya la misión Crew-11, que permanecerá durante los próximos meses a bordo del laboratorio orbital, continuando con el programa de investigación de la NASA y sus socios internacionales.

Democratic strategist says party lacks ‘moral authority’ on Texas redistricting fight

NEWYou can now listen to Fox News articles!
Democrats are fighting tooth and nail to stop Texas lawmakers’ plan to redraw the state’s congressional map, but critics, including one prominent member of their own party, say they don’t exactly hold the moral high ground.
Democrat legislators have fled the state to avoid votes on redistricting, which is expected to add more Republican seats to Congress for the Lone Star State. They’re getting the rock-star treatment as they visit blue states, where several governors have vowed to gerrymander Republicans out of their own Congressional delegations in retaliation for the Texas effort.

However, Democratic strategist Julian Epstein told «Fox News Live» on Saturday that his party is not immune from criticism, as many blue states have already gerrymandered in a way that limits Republican congressional representation.
«No, I think they don’t have the moral authority, and there’s a lot of pearl-clutching going on,» he said.
Several blue states, including Massachusetts, Connecticut and New Mexico, have no Republicans in their House delegations. And many feature oddly-drawn districts, seemingly crafted to limit GOP representation.
«The Democrats don’t have clean hands here. You look at states like Massachusetts, New Jersey[…] Illinois, California, and Democrats have effectively gerrymandered Republicans out of existence,» Epstein added.
NETWORKS POUNCE ON REPUBLICAN REDISTRICTING. THEY DIDN’T CARE WHEN DEMOCRATS DID IT

J.B. Pritzker, governor of Illinois, left, and State Representative Gene Wu, a Democrat from Texas, during a news conference at the Democratic Party of DuPage County office in Carol Stream, Illinois, US, on Sunday, Aug. 3, 2025.
Epstein cautioned that the nationwide redistricting battle could create a «race to the bottom,» and that leaving Republicans and Democrats in states led by the opposite parties could lead to people feeling left out of the democratic process. Epstein cited New Jersey, in which Trump garnered 46% of the vote in 2024, but Republicans only have three out of the 12 congressional seats.
Meanwhile, Texas state Rep. Brian Harrison, a Republican, told Fox News Digital on Saturday that Democrats are guilty of «total hypocrisy and faux outrage.»
«The dirty little secret is Democrats have no problem whatsoever with states redrawing their congressional maps to maximize partisan political advantage. They’re just furious that Republican states are starting to redraw their maps,» Harrison said.

«It’s because Democrat state after Democrat state, for a decade, has been gerrymandering the hell out of their congressional maps,» he said.
«Massachusetts, Connecticut, Vermont, Rhode Island, Delaware, all of these states have zero. If you’re a Republican in those Democrat states, you don’t have any voice in Congress,» he added. «And [there are] many, many more that have given you just one seat, Oregon, I think Maine and Maryland.»
In California, a special election is likely to occur in November to counteract the Texas redistricting plan.

«We are talking about emergency measures to respond to what’s happening in Texas, and we will nullify what happens in Texas,» California Gov. Gavin Newsom said on Friday with some Texas state lawmakers.
«We’ll pick up five seats with the consent of the people. And that’s the difference between the approach we’re taking and the approach they’re taking,» Newsom added. «We’re doing it on a temporary basis. We’re doing it in a fully transparent way and we’re doing it by asking the people of the state of California for their consent and support.»
Harrison explained that Texas’s redistricting push has numerous reasons behind it, including the population growth in the Lone Star state since the last census.
