U.S. District Judge Ana Reyes ordered a halt to tree-cutting at the East Potomac golf course in Washington, D.C., until 26 October, and now requires advance notice before course changes. The course is part of President Trump's plans to redevelop it. One report says more than 400 trees were cut over the holiday weekend, and that the judge said she was furious. Another says locals and preservationists have long opposed the plan, and the legal fight escalated after hundreds of trees were cleared on short notice.
