NEW: A federal judge ordered the Trump admin to stop cutting down trees at the historic East Potomac Park after crews felled 430 trees in one day.

The Park Service has been quietly handing out contracts to remake the public course into a luxury championship venue for Trump.

Trump just made one of the most dangerous people in American politics his chief of staff.

Stephen Miller was a Project 2025 architect and behind orders for national parks to tear down signs on George Washington's slaves, Native massacres, and climate change. He's pushed to rip every migrant child at the border away from their parents, even families seeking asylum the legal way. He founded a legal group that filed more than 100 actions claiming DEI discriminates against white men.

Repulsive.

No need, we'll do the hard work for them.

This is the most outrageously corrupt administration in American history, and we're going to keep looking into their corrupt dealings.
