Judge Warns Trump Team of Contempt Over Destroyed DC Golf Course Records
A federal judge put the Trump administration on notice Friday: destroy records tied to the president's Washington, DC golf course plans and face sanctions or contempt. Judge Ana C. Reyes said she'd move "within a zeptosecond," after a CNN report alleged officials are destroying documents before Democrats take Congress.

US District Judge Ana C. Reyes issued the warning from the bench on Friday, saying the Trump administration could face contempt proceedings or sanctions if evidence shows it destroyed records tied to President Donald Trump's proposed renovation projects in Washington, DC. Her patience is not a renewable resource. "I will start proceedings on sanctions or contempt within a zeptosecond," she said.
Reyes is overseeing an investigation into whether government attorneys misled the court or violated ethics rules in the lawsuit challenging Trump's taxpayer-funded renovation plans. The project would remake East Potomac Golf Links and surrounding parks into what the plans describe as a "championship-level golf course."
The warning came after a CNN report that administration officials are allegedly destroying documents before Democrats assume control of Congress. Reyes' threat of sanctions or contempt now hangs over the administration as that investigation moves forward.
