法官抨击特朗普司法部在DC高尔夫球场“不可原谅”的树木移除行为作者：Jan Wolfe 华盛顿，10月12日 - 一名美国法官周一表示，她对司法部律师在一起旨在阻止特朗普政府接管华盛顿历史悠久的高尔夫球场的诉讼中的行为感到“愤怒”，称周末从球场移除数百棵树“不可原谅”。
Judge blasts Trump's DOJ over 'inexcusable' tree removal at DC golf course By Jan Wolfe WASHINGTON, Oct 12 - A US judge said on Monday that she was "furious" with Justice Department lawyers for their conduct in a lawsuit seeking to halt the Trump administration’s takeover of a historic golf course in Washington, saying it was "inexcusable" that hundreds of trees were removed from the course over the weekend.
“我现在不仅感到不安和愤怒，更是对政府深感失望，”华盛顿地区美国地方法官安娜·雷耶斯在庭审中对政府律师说。”你们办公室的任何人在什么宇宙里认为这是可以接受的？”雷耶斯表示，东波托马克高尔夫球场（East Potomac Golf Links）在周五下午开始的约500棵树的突然移除是不可接受的，因为她在5月曾要求政府提前通知任何在高尔夫球场进行的实质性施工工作。
"More than being upset and furious right now, I am just deeply disappointed in the government," US District Judge Ana Reyes in Washington told government lawyers during a court hearing. "On what universe did anyone in your office think this was acceptable?" Reyes said the abrupt removal of about 500 trees at East Potomac Golf Links, which began on Friday afternoon, was unacceptable because in May she had demanded that the government provide advance notice of any substantive construction work at the golf course.
司法部未能通知提起诉讼的保护团体树木移除工作的行为“已经让政府在这起案件中失去了所有可信度”，法官表示。
The Justice Department's failure to notify the preservationist group that filed the lawsuit of the tree removal work "has cost the government all of its credibility" in the case, the judge said.
司法部律师玛丽莎·皮罗帕托在听证会上表示，政府律师已经尽力收集树木移除的细节，以便在法庭文件中共享。
Justice Department lawyer Marissa Piropato said during the hearing that government attorneys had done their best to gather details on tree removal so they could share them in a court filing.
“你们没有尽力，”雷耶斯回应。“你们做得最差。”自2025年1月上任以来，美国总统唐纳德·特朗普一直将美国的文化和历史机构——从博物馆和纪念碑到国家公园和艺术中心——作为改造目标。
"You did not do your best," Reyes replied. "You did your absolute worst." Since taking office in January 2025, US President Donald Trump has targeted US cultural and historical institutions - from museums and monuments to national parks and arts centers - in an attempt to reshape them.
特朗普去年宣布计划对东波托马克高尔夫球场进行全面改造，这是一座由联邦政府所有、国家公园管理局（内政部下属机构）管理的百年历史公共高尔夫球场。
The president announced plans last year to overhaul East Potomac Golf Links, a century-old public golf course owned by the federal government and managed by the National Park Service, part of the Interior Department.
特朗普是一位经常打高尔夫球的人，他拥有多个球场，他表示希望这次翻新能让球场承办大型赛事。
Trump, a frequent golfer who owns several courses, has said he hopes the renovation will allow the course to host major tournaments.
华盛顿特区保护联盟在2026年2月的一起诉讼中称，特朗普正在无视环境法律，以“造成美国历史上一件无价之宝的不可逆转的破坏”，以便“将一个公共娱乐空间转变为一个专属的高端高尔夫球场”。雷耶斯在5月的听证会上告诉特朗普政府律师，如果在未事先通知法院的情况下开始重大施工，将会有“严重后果”。
The DC Preservation League said in a February 2026 lawsuit that Trump was flouting environmental laws to "irreparably destroy a priceless piece of American history" so he could "convert a public recreation space into an exclusive, high-end golf course." Reyes told Trump administration lawyers at a May hearing that there would be "serious consequences" if major construction work began without prior court notification.
在10月9日的法庭文件中，特朗普政府要求雷耶斯驳回该诉讼，称该诉讼为时过早，因为“所提议的项目仍处于早期和概念阶段”。华盛顿特区保护联盟的律师在周日要求雷耶斯发布紧急命令，以阻止球场进一步移除树木，并要求对任何其他不可逆转的修改进行通知，称尽管她在5月曾作出上述表态，但周六仍有超过500棵树被移除。
In an October 9 court filing, the Trump administration asked Reyes to dismiss the litigation, saying it was premature because the "proposed project remains at an early and conceptual stage." Lawyers for the DC Preservation League asked Reyes on Sunday to issue an emergency order blocking further tree removal at the course and requiring notice of any other irreparable modifications, saying that despite her May remarks more than 500 trees were removed on Saturday.
雷耶斯在周日发布了一项临时命令，暂停任何树木移除，直至周二早上，并在周一的听证会上表示，她打算延长该禁令的时长。
Reyes issued a temporary order on Sunday that paused any tree removal until Tuesday morning, and indicated during Monday's hearing that she intended to extend the block for longer.
国家公园服务局官员凯文·格里思在周一的听证会上表示，移除树木旨在提高公园的安全性并恢复其原始设计，这是2019年制定的一项计划的一部分，早于特朗普对该球场的野心。
Kevin Griess, a National Park Service official, said at Monday's hearing that tree removal was intended to improve safety at the park and restore its original design, and was part of a 2019 plan that predates Trump's ambitions for the course.
