Judge won't order disclosure of Trump White House visitor logs

By Josh Gerstein, Politico, July 26, 2018

A federal judge has rejected a bid by several public interest groups to force release of a broad set of logs of visitors to the Trump White House.

In a ruling Thursday, U.S. District Court Judge Katherine Failla declined to depart from a 2013 federal appeals court decision that found visitor records for the Obama White House were not subject to disclosure under the Freedom of Information Act.
