Judge Ana Reyes Launches Formal Inquiry into DOJ Ethics Over Golf Course Dispute

A federal judge has opened a formal inquiry into whether Justice Department attorneys committed ethical violations regarding the renovation of the East Potomac Golf Course in Washington, D.C. The investigation follows a contradiction between sworn testimony claiming no closure plan existed and President Trump's public announcement of a November 15 closure. The court will appoint a special master to determine if government officials misrepresented facts or withheld information, while the administration faces a preliminary injunction requiring 10 days' notice for any permanent changes to the historic site.
