A federal judge has temporarily blocked the US government's closure of an historic golf course and park in Washington DC. US District Judge Ana Reyes has been overseeing a months-long challenge to the president's plans for East Potomac Golf Links, which he said would be closed from 15 November for extensive renovations.

"The government proposes to close a historic park, daily enjoyed by Washingtonians of all stripes, indefinitely," Reyes wrote. She said the closure "runs counter to the public interest in utilising national parkland", adding that the government had not "plausibly identified any harm it would suffer from a temporary restraining order that preserves the status quo pending further proceedings".
