JUST IN: Democrat Witch Hunt Against Trump Official ‘Deflated’ After Truth Comes Out

A key Democrat talking point against former Trump attorney Emil Bove has taken a serious hit, after new evidence revealed that accusations of urging Department of Justice lawyers to “defy” a court order were built on distortions—if not outright falsehoods.

The smear campaign was largely based on a whistleblower complaint filed by Erez Reuveni, a former DOJ immigration lawyer. According to Reuveni, during a March 14, 2025, meeting, Bove supposedly told officials that they may have to say “f*** you” to the courts in order to push forward with a politically charged operation under the Alien Enemies Act.

Reuveni backed up his claim with a string of text messages exchanged with other DOJ personnel, referencing phrases like “find out time on the ‘f*** you’” and predicting “a decision point on f*** you.”

Media outlets like CBS News quickly latched onto the claim, running headlines suggesting Bove—now a Trump judicial nominee—had actively encouraged lawyers to defy lawful court orders. However, internal notes released this week from Bove’s own supervisor painted a very different picture.

Then former President Donald Trump and Emil Bove at hush money trial.

In a newly surfaced memo dated April 8, the supervisor describes that same March 14 meeting, stating that the DOJ legal team was preparing for “fast-moving litigation” and had been advised “to avoid a court order halting an upcoming operation.” The key word, now circled in viral screenshots: avoid. Not defy.

As Mollie Hemingway of The Federalist pointed out on X, formerly Twitter, “Senate Democrats released text messages that they say support the claim Emil Bove instructed DOJ attorneys to ‘defy’ a court order. In fact, he told them to work to ‘avoid’ getting halted by a court order in the future.” Hemingway also noted that the memo came from Reuveni’s own supervisor and directly contradicts the premise of the whistleblower’s claim.

The House Judiciary GOP echoed that sentiment, writing, “🚨 ANOTHER DEMOCRAT CONSPIRACY DEFLATED.”

Many are now blasting the original reporting and the Senate Judiciary Committee’s framing of the story, accusing them of launching yet another baseless attack on a Trump-affiliated figure in an attempt to derail his nomination. “It’s vintage Schiff,” Hemingway joked in another post, referencing the now-discredited CNN report about Don Jr. and WikiLeaks. She added, “The texts don’t support the claim.”

Context is everything—and in this case, the fuller picture seems to demolish the narrative being pushed by Democrats and their media allies.

Bove, who formerly co-led the National Security Unit in the Southern District of New York, has a reputation for legal precision and discretion. He joined Trump’s legal team in 2023, helping defend the former president in the classified documents case brought by Special Counsel Jack Smith. Bove is seen as a serious legal mind, not a political bomb-thrower—making the accusation that he encouraged defiance of judicial authority all the more suspicious.
