Reyes wrote in her 70-page decision that "rarely, if ever, has the United States Department of Justice urged a federal court not to believe the sitting President," after Woodward told the judge in a contentious court hearing earlier this month that despite Mr. Trump's posts about an overhaul of East Potomac, there was "no plan to close the course."
