Judge finds city had no legal right to yank license for Trump's Bronx golf course
Source: Politico
NEW YORK — A Manhattan judge ruled Friday there was no "legal foundation" for former Mayor Bill de Blasio's decision to cancel the city's contract with Trump Golf Links at Ferry Point Park in the Bronx following the Jan. 6 insurrection.
De Blasio administration officials notified the Trump Organization on Jan. 15, 2021, that the city was pulling the group's operating license for the 18-hole course in the Throgs Neck section of the Bronx.
They referenced the "actions of Donald J. Trump and Donald Trump Jr." that "incited" the attack on the Capitol as well as the Professional Golfers' Association's termination of the 2022 PGA Championship at the Trump Bedminster golf course in New Jersey as reasons for revoking the Ferry Point license.
They argued the then-president and his companies would no longer be able to attract "first-class professional championship golf tournaments such as those sponsored by the PGA" to Ferry Point because it would be associated with a "violent insurrection against the federal government."

Maybe she didn't want to do the ruling, but followed what she thought was the law.
