Senate Democrats walk out of committee vote to advance Trump court pick Emil Bove
Senate Judiciary Committee Democrats walked out before Republicans voted on Thursday to advance President Donald Trump's nomination of Emil Bove -- the controversial top Justice Department official who formerly served as Trump's defense attorney -- to a seat on the powerful Third Circuit U.S. Court of Appeals. The Democrats left before Republicans forced the vote for Bove's lifetime appointment on the appeals court that oversees districts in Delaware, New Jersey and Pennsylvania. Bove has repeatedly drawn criticism from Democrats in the opening six months of Trump's presidency for cultivating a reputation as one of President Trump's chief enforcers at DOJ. The Republican-controlled Senate Judiciary Committee's vote to advance Bove means he will next face a vote in the full Senate. MORE: Why do Trump's MAGA followers care so much about the Epstein files? Democratic Sen. Cory Booker spoke furiously from the dais, pleading with Senate Judiciary Committee Chair Chuck Grassley to allow further debate on Bove's nomination, but Grassley declined. "What are you afraid of about even debating this?" Booker asked Grassley. "Sir, with all appeals to your decency, with all appeals to your integrity, with all appeals to past jurisdictions and past precedent, why are you doing this?" Booker asked. More than 900 former Justice Department employees sent a letter to the Senate Judiciary Committee on Wednesday urging lawmakers to vote down Bove's nomination. He has fired scores of one-time career officials at Main Justice and the FBI, including prosecutors who worked on former special counsel Jack Smith's investigations of Trump as well as the Jan. 6 assault on the U.S. Capitol by a pro-Trump mob. Bove also was at the center of the department's controversial decision to drop the federal corruption case against New York Democratic Mayor Eric Adams, which led to the resignations of multiple prosecutors who argued the effort appeared to be a 'quid pro quo' to secure Adams' cooperation with the Trump administration's immigration enforcement actions. Adams and Bove have both denied any such "quid pro quo" arrangement, but in agreeing to drop the charges the federal judge overseeing Adams' case dinged the Justice Department writing, "Everything here smacks of a bargain." "Mr. Bove's trampling over institutional norms in this case, and in others, sent shockwaves through the ranks -- cratering morale, triggering mass departures, and eroding the effectiveness of DOJ's vital work," the prosecutors wrote of Bove's actions. "Prosecutorial authority carries profound consequences on individuals' lives and the integrity of our public institutions; wielding it without impartiality is a flagrant abuse of that power." MORE: Trump admin live updates More recently, however, Bove's actions have come under scrutiny as the subject of a whistleblower complaint by fired DOJ attorney Erez Reuveni, who has accused Bove and other top DOJ officials of repeatedly discussing how they could potentially disobey court orders that seek to restrict the Trump administration's immigration actions. Reuveni's complaint alleged that in one meeting Bove suggested saying "f--- you" to courts who may try to block deportations under the Alien Enemies Act. During his confirmation hearing, Bove disputed much of Reuveni's complaint -- though he only said he could "not recall" using such an expletive to describe their response to a court order. "Each one of the undersigned would testify, under oath, that we have never -- and would never -- tell a Justice Department attorney to consider defying a court order," the letter said. "Moreover, the Justice Department's later defiance of judicial mandates in the cases where Mr. Bove previewed doing so further suggests that disregarding court orders was Mr. Bove's intent all along." Republicans on the committee rushed to Bove's defense in the wake of the whistleblower complaint, and accused Reuveni of partnering with Democrats in seeking to tank Bove's nomination by filing it with the committee just 24 hours before he was set to appear publicly before them. Responding to the former DOJ officials' letter Wednesday, department official Brian Nieves attacked Justice Connection as a "political hit squad masquerading as a support network" and said "they certainly don't speak for DOJ." "They speak for a bitter faction angry they no longer call the shots," said Nieves, a deputy chief of staff to Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche. "Their attacks on Emil Bove are dishonest, coordinated, and disgraceful."

Denise Richards restraining order against husband alleges abuse, death threats
Denise Richards has been granted a temporary restraining order against estranged husband Aaron Phypers after he allegedly abused and threatened to kill the reality star. Phypers, 52, must stay 100 yards from the 54-year-old 'Real Housewives of Beverly Hills' alum as well as her home, vehicle and place of business through Aug. 8, when the exes are slated to appear in court, according to new court documents obtained by TMZ. 'Throughout our relationship, Aaron would frequently violently choke me, violently squeeze my head with both hands, tightly squeeze my arms, violently slap me in my face and head, (and) aggressively slam my head into the bathroom towel rack,' alleged the 'Wild Things'-turned-OnlyFans star, who married Phypers in 2018. Richards also included a photo of her with a black eye, which she claims Phypers gave her during a 2022 attack. Among the alleged incidents described by Richards was one earlier this month, wherein she says Phypers screamed at her to give him her phone and 'squeezed my arm extremely tight and aggressively' when she gave him pushback. Richards says she ultimately told Phypers she'd call the police, to which he responded: 'I would like to see the cops take me away, I will blow everything up if they try.' Richards also claims Phypers owns at least eight unregistered firearms. It's unclear whether the alleged July incident occurred before or after Phypers filed for divorce last week, citing irreconcilable differences. He listed their date of separation at July 4. An insider told Us Weekly shortly thereafter that the two 'love each other but they haven't been happy,' in large part because Richards has had to shoulder the financial burden in the relationship. A representative for Richards did not immediately respond to the Daily News' request for comment.

Trump officials arrive in S.F., expected to push Alcatraz reopening as prison
Beating the usual rush of tourists, the U.S. attorney general and interior secretary traveled early Thursday to Alcatraz, where they were expected to announce a highly improbable plan to reopen the prison on the San Francisco Bay island, in what appeared to be a publicity stunt designed to portray President Donald Trump as tough on crime while antagonizing a famously liberal city. Rep. Nancy Pelosi, D-San Francisco, slammed what she said was a plan for Interior Secretary Doug Burgum and Attorney General Pam Bondi to announce the prison's reopening Thursday morning. Critics have raised serious questions about the plan's practicality and legality. A former park ranger and expert on Alcatraz history previously told the Chronicle that the prison was 'totally inoperable,' with no water or sewage, and electricity only in certain areas. This month, President Donald Trump said he'd seen renderings of the potential new facility, complete with sharks patrolling the waters around the prison. Trump first floated the idea in May, saying in a Truth Social post that he ordered federal agencies to reopen and rebuild Alcatraz more than 60 years after it closed. Officials shuttered the prison in 1963 after deeming it too expensive to maintain and operate. After visiting Alcatraz early Thursday, Bondi and Burgum were scheduled to visit the Presidio in the afternoon, a spokesperson for Pelosi told the Chronicle. The House is currently in session, so Pelosi did not plan on attending the events, the spokesperson said. John Martini, an expert on Alcatraz history who served as a park ranger on the island in the 1970s previously told the Chronicle that it would be impossible to reopen the cellblock because the building is 'totally inoperable,' with no water or sewage, and electricity only in certain parts. Bondi's visit comes at a precarious moment for the attorney general. She has come under fire from large swaths of Trump's political base for her handling of the Jeffrey Epstein case. After repeatedly saying that the administration would release the Justice Department's investigatory documents on Epstein, the Trump administration said in recent days that they did not plan further disclosures related to the prominent financier and sex offender found dead in a jail cell in 2019. 'Pam Bondi will reopen Alcatraz the same day Trump lets her release the Epstein files. So… never,' Gov. Gavin Newsom wrote on social media. Pelosi called the proposal 'the Trump Administration's stupidest initiative yet' in a statement Wednesday evening. ''It should concern us all that clearly the only intellectual resources the Administration has drawn upon for this foolish notion are decades-old fictional Hollywood movies,' she said. State Sen. Scott Weiner, D-San Francisco, called the proposal a 'dangerous idea' in a statement early Thursday morning. He said he was concerned that Trump will turn the former prison into a 'secret police gulag.' Alcatraz operated as a federal maximum security penitentiary from 1934 to 1963, with an average population of about 275 prisoners, including notorious residents Al Capone and George 'Machine Gun' Kelly. Running the prison was three times more expensive than any other federal prison, according to the Federal Bureau of Prisons, as food, water and other supplies had to be brought to the island by boat. Officials estimated the prison needed up to $5 million in restoration and maintenance work at the time it closed. The island re-opened to the public in 1973 as a national park. It has since become a major tourist attraction and one of the most popular national parks, attracting about 1.2 million visitors a year with ferries shuttling people to and from the historic site. The infamous former prison has also been featured in movies and books, capturing its place in popular culture. The 1979 Clint Eastwood film, 'Escape from Alcatraz,' dramatized a real-life prison break from the island. Federal prison officials visited Alcatraz in May to assess the structure. Trump revisited the proposal in a social media post earlier this month in which he described Alcatraz as a crime-fighting symbol — with sharks. 'Because of the Violence and Criminality I have seen due to the Open Border Policy of Sleepy Joe Biden, in particular allowing millions of people into our Country who shouldn't be here, I wanted something representative to show how we fight back, and then, it happened, I saw a picture of ALCATRAZ looking so foreboding, and I said, 'We're going to look into renovating and rebuilding the famous ALCATRAZ Prison sitting high on the Bay, surrounded by sharks. What a symbol it is, and will be!'' he wrote.
