Reflecting on the Trump Era
Trump’s Lincoln Memorial Reflecting Pool renovation should have been an easy lift. But it quickly became a monument to failure. The post Reflecting on the Trump Era appeared first on The Intercept .
On Monday, U.S. District Judge Ana Reyes expressed her outrage at Trump administration attorneys for admitting that over 400 trees had been cut down at a public golf course in Washington D.C., which the President desires to transform into a championship-level course. Judge Reyes stated, "430 trees!" and questioned, "In what universe did anyone in your office think that was acceptable?"
The judge's outburst came after the administration had defied her order to remove the trees. The incident highlights the ongoing disregard for environmental concerns and legal orders from the Trump administration.
