Biden-appointed judge with history of fiery Trump clashes erupts at DOJ: 'You've lost all credibility!'

What happened: Judge Ana Reyes criticized DOJ lawyers at an emergency hearing over about 430 trees removed from East Potomac Golf Links in D.C., after late-Friday notice that removal would start Saturday. Key numbers: Approximately 430 trees cut down. Notice given at 4:55pm Friday. Why it matters: The court agreed to hear the case on an emergency basis, as preservationists argue environmental and historic-preservation requirements were not met. The administration says the removal is authorized NPS landscape management separate from Trump's proposed renovation.
