Judge continues to block Trump from cutting down trees at D.C. golf course
Sports2 sources1 country🔦 Under-reported19h ago
On Monday, U.S. District Judge Ana Reyes extended a preliminary injunction blocking the Trump administration from cutting down trees at East Potomac Park in Washington, D.C. The legal action stems from a lawsuit filed by a preservationist group and golfers regarding the site, where President Trump has stated a new golf course will be built in the future.
In her ruling, Judge Reyes emphasized that her decisions are grounded in legal principles rather than environmental advocacy. Referencing her earlier remarks, she wrote that the court does not speak for the trees, but instead speaks only for the rule of law.
