Kamala Harris spotted enjoying dinner with husband Doug Emhoff at iconic Sydney restaurant
Former US Vice President Kamala Harris has been seen in Australia dining with her husband at a popular Sydney restaurant. The former vice president was seen at the Bathers' Pavilion at Balmoral, a popular beachside restaurant northeast of the Sydney CBD. Ms Harris was enjoying a dinner with her husband, Doug Emhoff, and two other unidentified people. The popular Restaurant and cafe is situated in a historic building from the 20s and serves seasonal Modern European cuisine and over 350 wines. The former Democratic presidential candidate is in Australia to address a real estate conference on the Gold Coast. Ms Harris has flown under the radar since her election defeat in November. She most recently stepped back into the limelight to wish former President Joe Biden a speedy recovery following his cancer diagnosis. Mr Biden's office revealed in a statement that the former president had been diagnosed with an aggressive form of prostate cancer, which has spread to the bone. 'Doug and I are saddened to learn of President Biden's prostate cancer diagnosis. We are keeping him, Dr Biden, and their entire family in our hearts and prayers during this time,' Ms Harris said. 'Joe is a fighter — and I know he will face this challenge with the same strength, resilience, and optimism that have always defined his life and leadership. We are hopeful for a full and speedy recovery.'

Review: The Luncheon at Studio Frantzén
Now this is a worthwhile reason to leave your bed on a Saturday… Studio Frantzén landed in Dubai last year with all the hooha-hoopla of a celebrity chef-backed brand, laden with shiny Michelin stars and endless praise in tow. The brains and the brawn behind this operation, Chef Björn Frantzén, is a man of many accolades, helming a pair of three-Michelin-starred restaurants and most recently, making a standout debut in Dubai's culinary honeycomb. The people have spoken, and they have loved what the spot has to offer. Having had a couple of months to warm up the grills and dust off the cushions, the restaurant has now forayed into the world of the set menu. The Luncheon is the bear's take on the lunchtime deal, a somewhat commercial proposition that does well to attract a certain demographic of diners. Usually, we have the corporate world convening to close deals over steaming hot plates, but The Luncheon is a weekend affair, which means no suits and boots – only hungry holidayers. The deal… Two courses for Dhs195, with a starter, a main and a side. Curated beverage package featuring wine, cocktails, champagne, and mocktail options for an additional Dhs225. What's On the menu? We dine on a quiet Saturday, seated in a small, cosy booth with a direct view of the open kitchen. Upon first glance at the menu, one can tell it has been designed to be a crowd pleaser, with classical choices and lunchtime favourites, like the seabass ceviche, four different variations of oysters, roasted cauliflower, striploin, salmon and a hearty beef burger, to name a few of the options. It's a bit of a global amalgamation, staying true to the Modern European bistro label, but it's good and safe, and everyone is sure to be fed. We go for the hamachi crudo and the grilled tiger prawn to start. The crudo, served with radishes, ume kosho and fermented strawberry, is a fitting entrant, almost a palate cleanser, with a bright tang and a chilled, bodied bite, while still staying light. The tiger prawn comes with a fermented red curry dressing and a ginger aoli, and is the clear winner between the two – the curry packs a punch and the aoli only adds, but none of them are overpowering. It's a simmering, savoury delight. For the mains, we opt for Angus beef striploin and the Wagyu beef burger. The meat in both the dishes is cooked to perfection, but that's hardly a surprise. The striploin comes with a fermented kampot pepper cream sauce, salty, with a subtle kick, which cuts the fat of the meat beautifully. The burger, almost oversized and topped high with condiments like crispy onion, pickled shiitake, Japanese mustard emulsion and cheddar cheese, is a weekend lunch meal through and through. It's big, it's messy, with so much texture and flavour – a nutty umami from the mushroom, crispy sweetness from the onion and a herby kick from the mustard. This is what you have when you've got nothing to be responsible for after. By now, our warm, watchful server has brought us some sweet treats from the Candy Room, Easter-themed cookies and sour candy – a fitting end to a menu like The Luncheon. It's easy, it's fun and it delivers on the expectation of the quality you attach to big-name restaurants, without any of the fuss, frills and gold leaf. Just plain, good food. What's On Verdict: Highly inoffensive and delicious – we recommend. Studio Frantzén, Atlantis, The Palm, Palm Jumeirah, Sat and Sun, 12pm to 4pm, Dhs195, Tel: (0) 54 584 3105, @studiofrantzendubai Images: Supplied

Trump allies scrutinize Judge Boasberg's DC connections as high-stakes legal battles escalate
Federal Judge James Boasberg is facing mounting criticism from President Donald Trump and his allies as he presides over multiple high-profile lawsuits targeting the Trump administration – cases that have now brought the judge's personal and professional ties under fresh scrutiny. Boasberg, who was previously appointed to the secretive Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Court by Supreme Court Chief Justice John Roberts and reportedly once roomed with Justice Brett Kavanaugh at Yale, has become a flashpoint for conservatives who accuse the judiciary of bias against the Trump administration. Now the chief judge of the U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia, Boasberg's recent orders halting deportations of violent illegal immigrants and overseeing cases tied to leaked internal communications have amplified claims of partisanship and drawn fierce rebukes from Trump and his allies. "The Chief Justice handpicked DC Obama Judge Jeb Boasberg to serve on the FISA court," said Mike Davis, president of the Article III Project. "The DC federal judges are in a cozy little club, and they protect their own." His comments echo a broader sentiment on the right that Boasberg's judicial decisions – and his close ties within the legal establishment – reflect a partisan tilt against the president. Boasberg, a Washington, D.C., native, earned an advanced degree in Modern European History from Oxford University in 1986 and later attended Yale Law School, where he lived with Kavanaugh, according to multiple reports. Trump Unloads On Judge Boasberg, 'Radical Left Judges' For Halting Deportations Of Violent Illegal Aliens He graduated in 1990 and clerked for the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals before joining Keker & Van Nest in San Francisco as a litigation associate from 1991 to 1994. He later worked at Kellogg, Huber, Hansen, Todd & Evans in Washington from 1995 to 1996. Read On The Fox News App After serving in the U.S. Attorney's Office for the District of Columbia, Boasberg was appointed in 2002 by then-President George W. Bush to serve as an associate judge on the Superior Court of the District of Columbia, the local trial court for the District. In 2011, then-President Barack Obama nominated him to the U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia, where he was confirmed by the Senate and received his commission on March 17, 2011. Boasberg was appointed to serve a seven-year term on the U.S. Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Court, or FISA Court, by Supreme Court Chief Justice John Roberts. The FISA Court is made up of 11 federal judges, all of whom are hand-selected by the chief justice. After undergoing rigorous background checks, FISA Court judges are then responsible for approving surveillance requests and wiretap warrants submitted by federal prosecutors, law enforcement and intelligence agencies. Most of the court's work remains classified. Boasberg served as the court's presiding judge from 2020 to 2021 before returning to the D.C. District Court. After Boasberg on March 15 ordered the Trump administration to halt its deportations of illegal immigrants under a 1798 wartime authority, Trump took to Truth Social to call for his impeachment. The president's remarks echoed a growing chorus of conservatives who have recently called for the impeachment of federal judges overseeing his administration's legal battles. Judge In Crosshairs Of Trump Deportation Case Orders Preservation Of Signal Messages "I'm just doing what the VOTERS wanted me to do. This judge, like many of the Crooked Judges' I am forced to appear before, should be IMPEACHED!!! WE DON'T WANT VICIOUS, VIOLENT, AND DEMENTED CRIMINALS, MANY OF THEM DERANGED MURDERERS, IN OUR COUNTRY. MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN!!!" Trump wrote in the post. In an unprecedented move by the nation's high court, Roberts released a public statement shortly thereafter, denouncing impeachment as an appropriate response to judicial disagreements. "For more than two centuries, it has been established that impeachment is not an appropriate response to disagreement concerning a judicial decision. The normal appellate review process exists for that purpose," he said in the statement released in mid-March. Trump once again unloaded on Boasberg in a March 30 Truth Social post after the judge extended his restraining order on March 28. The extension will run through April 12. "People are shocked by what is going on with the Court System. I was elected for many reasons, but a principal one was LAW AND ORDER, a big part of which is QUICKLY removing a vast Criminal Network of individuals, who came into our Country through the Crooked Joe Biden Open Borders Policy! These are dangerous and violent people, who kill, maim and, in many other ways, harm the people of our Country," Trump wrote on the social media platform. Who Is James Boasberg, The Us Judge At The Center Of Trump's Deportation Efforts? "The Voters want them OUT, and said so in Record Numbers. If it was up to District Judge Boasberg and other Radical Left Judges, nobody would be removed, the President wouldn't be allowed to do his job, and people's lives would be devastated all throughout our Country. MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN!," he continued. Boasberg came under additional fire after he was randomly assigned to preside over a lawsuit involving the Trump administration's leaked Signal chat. After Boasberg was assigned to the case, Trump again took to Truth Social and accused Boasberg of "grabbing the 'Trump Cases' all to himself." Davis also took to social media, writing, "Judge Jeb Boasberg is lighting on fire his legitimacy over an unnecessary, lawless, and dangerous pissing match with the President Jeb will lose. "Let's hope the Chief Justice doesn't light the entire federal judiciary's legitimacy on fire by siding with his personal buddy Jeb," Davis wrote. At the start of the March 27 hearing, Boasberg emphasized that he was randomly assigned to the case through a docket computer system. "That's how it works, and that's how all cases continue to be assigned in this court," Boasberg said during the hearing. Fox News Digital reached out to the White House, the Supreme Court, and the D.C. District Court for additional comment. Fox News Digital's Breanne Deppisch, Emma Colton and Alex Nitzberg contributed to this report.
