Charlie Sheen is going nuts over the judge's decision to give Brooke Mueller's brother Scott guardianship of their twins and then allowing her brother and the kids to live at her house -- a house Charlie owns.

What Charlie is telling friends is choice, so it just can't be paraphrased. Here it goes ...

-- "This pig circus overflowing with buffoons, sycophants and heretics cannot be trusted to safely raise a colony of ferrets."

-- "Brooke will fail and her brother [who lives by the beach] will be selling his ass under a pier and the evil nanny will die from ugly."

-- "When, not if, this psychotic and desperately irresponsible sham goes sideways, DCFS will burn to the ground, topped off with the smoldering robe of the judge."

The change of guardianship that just went down in the Charlie Sheen/Brooke Mueller custody war has just taken a radical turn -- TMZ has learned Scott Mueller, the new guardian, and the kids will be moving in with Brooke.

Sources connected with the case tell TMZ ... the judge who granted the guardianship today felt it was important for the kids to stay in the same school. Scott lives far away in a beachside community, so the judge ruled he could move in with Brooke.

This is hugely significant, because the L.A. County Dept. of Children and Family Services has NOT given Brooke full custody rights. DCFS felt it was important to gradually reintroduce the kids to Brooke, because of her drug problems. But now it's as if she has full custody again.

In effect, Brooke is getting the kids back along with a babysitter.

There has been a changing of the guard ... Brooke Mueller's brother, Scott, has just gone to court and won temporary guardianship of Brooke and Charlie Sheen's twins Bob and Max ... TMZ has learned.

As TMZ first reported ... Denise Richards -- who had temporary guardianship -- made it clear to the L.A. County Dept. of Children and Family Services during a meeting Thursday -- she could no longer handle Bob and Max because they were violent toward her daughters.

We've learned DCFS has signed off on Scott becoming guardian. We're told he will get the children tonight.

Story developing ...

Denise Richards told the L.A. County Dept. of Children and Family Services ... she cannot care for Bob and Max, the twins of Charlie Sheen and Brooke Mueller, because she claims her own kids are in danger and she feels Brooke is insane ... sources tell TMZ.

TMZ broke the story ... Denise and Brooke had a sit-down Thursday with Dr. Charles Sophy, the DCFS Medical Director. We're told Denise told Sophy what we reported ... that Bob and Max were violent and attacked her daughters numerous times. She said she couldn't control the twins and could no longer serve as temporary guardian.

Sources say Denise told Sophy what we reported ... that the only way she would continue on as guardian is if the kids got the psychological help Brooke had blocked.

Our sources say Sophy has not given up ... he believes there is still room to keep Denise in the game.

Malcolm X is so controversial, he's still causing controversy nearly 50 years after his assassination.

Malcolm's heirs filed a lawsuit -- obtained by TMZ -- in which they claim a company called Third World Press announced last month it would release The Malcolm X Diaries. Third World claimed Malcolm's kids gave it the right to publish, but the kids beg to differ.

The diaries purport to provide a view of Malcolm's mind and his agenda for change.

Brooke Mueller and Denise Richards were actually cordial with each other during a mandatory sit-down with a chief honcho from the L.A. County Dept. of Children and Family Services ... but the drama is far from over ... TMZ has learned.

As we first reported ... Denise and Brooke showed up at an L.A. courthouse today and met with DCFS Medical Director Dr. Charles Sophy. We're told Sophy also asked Charlie Sheen to attend the meeting, but Sheen declined.

Sources familiar with the situation tell TMZ ... although the 2 warring women were not openly hostile toward each other, their problems were NOT solved during the 4-hour session. We're told Denise is still waffling on whether she'll continue to serve as temporary guardian for twins Bob and Max.

Here's what our sources say happened in the meeting:

--- Sophy did a lot of clarifying as to what the goals were -- specifically, to gradually "reunify" Brooke with her kids

-- Sophy made it clear the goal is not for Denise to keep custodial control over the twins. Her role would diminish as Brooke became stronger and able to provide parenting. We're told this will be a slow process and Sophy established more specific guidelines as to how it will happen

-- There was an acknowledgment by all that Bob and Max have been significantly damaged psychologically by the turmoil in the family

-- There was also an acknowledgment ... there is no "magic bullet" to solve their emotional problems

-- Charlie is NOT being looked at as an option for custody

-- As for Denise, she still feels Brooke is interfering with the proper treatment of Bob and Max, and fears the twins will physically hurt her daughters

-- We're told there was no evidence Brooke has lapsed back into drug use

We're told no follow-up meetings are scheduled with Sophy and the women. We're told DCFS social workers will now take over. As for when Brooke gets full custody -- currently she's getting 2 overnights a week and 3 days. We're told the process of full custody will be fairly slow.

NOW GET THIS!!! Charlie, Brooke and Denise all live in the same exclusive gated community -- Mulholland Estates. Guess who else lives there? CHARLES SOPHY!

Only in Hollywood.

Brooke Mueller and Denise Richards are locked in a conference room right now ... as officials from the L.A. County Dept. of Children and Family Services try to force a truce in their war over Bob and Max ... but Charlie Sheen was a no-show.

Sources connected with the warring families tell TMZ -- Dr. Charles Sophy, the Medical Director for DCFS -- called the meeting and wants Denise, Brooke and Charlie to come face-to-face to deal with what has become a child-rearing crisis.

You may remember Dr. Sophy -- he's a highly-respected shrink who was a key player in the Michael Jackson molestation trial in 2005.

We're told Charlie was invited but didn't attend -- we don't know why.

The goal of the meeting -- to figure out a custody arrangement that keeps Denise in the picture and gives Brooke sufficient parental rights.

Charlie Sheen is a fantastic father who dotes over his children and is always there for them ... this according to Denise Richards.

TMZ has obtained a document submitted to the L.A. County Dept. of Children and Family Services, written by Denise Richards. The title is "Visitation Log." Denise outlines Charlie's involvement with Sam and Lola -- the kids they had together, as well as Bob and Max -- the twins he had with Brooke Mueller.

The document -- which Denise was required to keep because she was Charlie's monitor when he visited the twins -- was included in her documents to show DCFS Charlie has been a capable, even excellent parent, whereas Brooke has been a disaster.

Here's the outline of Charlie's involvement:

-- Sept. 22 We all had dinner together. Charlie stayed until bedtime
-- Sept 25 Visit after school till after dinner
-- Sept. 29 We all went to watch our daughters ride, petting zoo, and dinner with friends
-- Oct 2 Boys and their dad and I took the girls to their dance class after school. Bob and Lola put on a dance show for all of us before bed. Their father stayed until bedtime
-- Oct 4 Boys field trip for school. We all went together. Spent the morning until 1:30 PM
-- Oct 6 Charlie was with us for the boys' drum lesson. Watched them play and went to play ball with boys. His friend and sons met us as well
-- Oct 9 I had friends and their children over for a dinner party. Charlie was with us. He left right after bedtime
-- Oct 16 The kids all came to my set at work. Charlie met us there. At my dinner break we all ate together
-- Oct 20 Charlie and his chef came over and she made brunch for us. Sam had a big project for school he spent time working on that. And also did art with boys
-- Oct 23 Dinner/homework with girls. Read stories to the kids
-- Oct 27 Spent late afternoon into evening with us
-- Oct 31 Went trick or treating with us, afterwards came back to my house to help me put everyone to bed

TMZ broke the story ... Denise has sent material to DCFS explaining how it has become impossible to care for Bob and Max -- she's the temporary guardian -- because of Brooke's interference.

Charlie Sheen was admonished by the judge in the war involving Bob and Max -- the twins at the center of the war between Charlie and Brooke Mueller -- if he opens his mouth again about the case, he's going to jail.

Here's the best part. We're told at one point the judge said, "Don't forget, I'm Italian!"

Sources connected with the case tell TMZ ... the judge issued a temporary restraining order against Charlie. The TRO re-instates the gag order, prohibiting them from talking about the case.

We're told the judge was upset with Charlie, who called the jurist a fatty and a douchebag on TMZ Live.

Under the TRO ... we're told Charlie is prohibited from going within 200 yards of Brooke. He's also not allowed to contact Brooke. To that we're told Charlie told the judge, "Thank you."

Brooke, who was in court as well, had her lawyers ask the judge to suspend his visitation rights with the twins, but the judge rejected her request. Sources tell us Brooke wants Denise Richards REMOVED as temporary guardian of the twins, but that didn't happen.

By the way ... Brooke's lawyer made a big deal about the pic of the birthday cake for Brooke with a grenade on top ... but the judge didn't make a big deal of it.

Denise Richards was armed with an email when she went to the L.A. County Dept. of Children and Family Services -- an email which she apparently believed would expose Brooke Mueller as a terrible parent.

The email -- obtained by TMZ -- was sent by Dr. Jay Gordon, an Assistant Professor of Pediatrics at UCLA Medical School. The email and documents obtained by TMZ make it clear ... Brooke is blocking psychological treatment for Bob and Max.

The email, dated August 23, 2013, reads:

-- "As we have discussed, because of recent events involving the boys' behavior I think that they need urgent evaluation. I am very concerned about their escalating violent actions; The apparent lack of understanding of the consequences and the safety of others is most worrisome. I would like them seen by Dr. Alessia Gottlieb for a complete developmental and behavioral assessment."

Charlie Sheen is using his dad's epic movie, "Apocalypse Now," to underscore his declaration of WAR against Brooke Mueller and the L.A. County Dept. of Children and Family Services.

Charlie tells TMZ ... he will not be muzzled by a gag order or any other admonition. He believes his twins Bob and Max have been grievously damaged by their mom, Brooke Mueller and he thinks DCFS is blindly protecting her at his kids' expense.

Charlie quotes Martin Sheen in the flick, "I am beyond their timid lying morality, therefore I am beyond caring" -- referring to what he considers the tepid actions of DCFS.

Charlie goes on: "What my family and I are forced to deal with in the last 4 years, lives outside the pale of any acceptable conduct or decency. I am battling an amorphous enemy that needs to be swiftly disempowered."

As we first reported, Brooke's people are gunning for Charlie for violating the gag order and going on TMZ Live, calling Brooke a "whore" and the world's worst parent. To that he says, "There is no force, no human, and no scenario in the known universe that will divert my course, my mission in this life."

As for the pictures TMZ posted, showing Bob allegedly before and after a visit with Brooke -- where it looks like his face was injured -- Charlie says he will stop at nothing to get DCFS to do the right thing:

-- "These crimes against my children will be exposed. These war criminals will be hanged at dusk to a cheering and jeering crowd, gathered together in love in support of all children who are mercilessly discarded like garbage by CPS. Which by the way stands for 'CAN'T PROTECT SHITE.'"

Charlie ends with an ominous threat: "The storm is brewing. Their roofs are leaking. I am the Tsunami your mommy warned you about your whole childhood. All of you renegade deplorable pigs are marked for slaughter."

Ex "Teen Mom" star Amber Portwood is savoring every moment after 17 months behind bars -- reuniting with her 4-year-old daughter on Monday -- and TMZ has the photos.

As we reported, Amber was originally sentenced to 5 years in an Indiana prison for violating probation in her drug possession case, but she was released early for good behavior and time served.

Sources tell TMZ, as soon as Amber got out she made a detour to a burger joint called Frisch's Big Boy -- and then beelined to see Leah ... who's been living with her dad while Amber was locked up.

Amber's baby daddy, Gary Shirley, currently has full custody ... but we're told she's planning to seek shared custody ASAP.

Tom Cruise is declaring he's a damn good dad to Suri ... opening up for the first time about his divorce from Katie Holmes and how it affected his relationship with his daughter.

Cruise just filed docs in his $50 million lawsuit against the publisher of "Life & Style" and "In Touch" magazines for cover stories that claimed he "abandoned" Suri after divorcing Katie in June 2012.

In the docs, Cruise says ... "I have in no way cut Suri out of my life -- whether physically, emotionally, financially or otherwise."

He goes on to cite specific times he saw his daughter in person in the months following the divorce, and says ... "even during the times when I was working overseas and was not able to see Suri in person, we were (and continue to be) extremely close."

The docs are pretty revealing ... since Tom has said next to nothing publicly about the divorce from Katie.

Cruise admits he was busy shooting 2 movies when "In Touch" ran its headline, "Abandoned by Daddy" -- however he says, "As my numerous emails with Suri's mother during this time period demonstrate, I was a constant presence in Suri's life."

Tom's declaration continues ... "While I'm sure my daughter misses me when I am not with her (as I miss her), she is a very happy child, and we have a wonderful relationship and cheerful phone calls."

Two prominent Beverly Hills doctors once featured on "Dr. 90210" are locked in a child custody war involving wild allegations of abuse -- and it all comes to a head this morning ... as the 3 youngest kids will be separated from their older brother ... TMZ has learned.

Plastic surgeon Dr. Brian Evans and dermatologist Dr. Susan Evans' nasty divorce took a dark turn last month when their oldest child filed legal docs, accusing his father of sexually abusing his younger siblings.

According to a request for a temporary restraining order, filed by Brian and Susan's 12-year-old son on Oct. 15 ... Brian touched his 6-year-old son's penis -- and also touched the genitals of their 8-year-old twin daughters.

Further, the eldest son claims Brian "hit me in the face, dragged me for 2 rooms" and threatened to kill the kids and their mom. According to the TRO request, this went down in Oct. 2012 ... a full year before the TRO was filed.

Brian's attorney Errol Gordon tells TMZ ... they not only deny the allegations, but say authorities investigated and disproved them.

In fact, on Oct. 24 the court issued a major modification of child custody ... granting Brian legal custody of all 4 children, and physical custody of the three youngest ones. The handoff is scheduled to happen this morning in L.A. County Family court.

The order also prohibits Susan from having any contact -- "in person, by telephone, text, email, or otherwise" -- with the 3 kids for the next 30 days. The oldest son will continue living with Susan.

After the 30 days, Susan can have 4 monitored visits with the kids -- but no overnights -- and a month after that ... she can ask to modify the custody order.

Justin Bieber's dad is living in a pretty badass Canadian home ... along with his two kids ... but TMZ has learned, JB is the one who sprung for the place.

Sources connected to the Bieber family tell us ... Justin wants to make sure his half-brother and half-sister are living in a really nice home, so he shelled out a cool $850k in cash for a 5-bedroom cabin-style pad in Ontario, where they live with their dad.

We're told ... this isn't a case of the family sponging off of Justin -- it's Justin who made the offer to the family.

The house is located way out in the Canadian wilderness in a small town of roughly 8,000 people.

But it's not like the family is trying to get off the grid -- the family name is plastered right on the mailbox.

Jermaine Jackson isn't just furious that Conrad Murray is a free man -- just 2 years after Murray was convicted of involuntary manslaughter -- Jermaine is "disgusted."

Michael's bro expressed his ire moments ago at LAX, but you really have to watch the video to get a feel for it.

Tito Jackson was also there, but he was feeling a little less talkative.
