WASHINGTON (AP) — The Senate has confirmed former Trump lawyer Emil Bove for a lifetime appointment as a federal appeals court judge. The 50-49 vote comes despite Democratic attempts to stop the nomination and whistleblower complaints against Bove. The most recent whistleblower to share evidence with Congress has not come forward publicly but recently provided an audio recording of Bove that contradicts some of his testimony at his confirmation hearing last month, according to two people familiar with the recording. The people requested anonymity because the whistleblower has not made the recording public.
