Where are Trump's golf courses? See list after new course opening in Scotland
The new course at the Trump International Scotland near Aberdeen is set to officially open Aug. 13, according to the website. Trump's sons Eric Trump and Donald Trump Jr., executive vice presidents of the Trump Organization, joined the president at the July 29 course opening event.
"We'll play it very quickly, and then I go back to D.C. and we put out fires all over the world," Trump said in his remarks at the event. "We stopped a war. But we've stopped about five wars, so that's much more important than playing golf. As much as I like it, it's much more important."
Trump had said ahead of his trip that he was traveling to talk trade, and he did announce a deal with the European Union ahead of his looming tariff deadline. But he traveled with family not only to the resort near Aberdeen, but also to the Trump Turnberry resort on Scotland's west coast.

Eric, Don Jr. join President Trump at golf course opening in Scotland
The president's eldest sons, Donald Trump Jr. and Eric Trump, manage the Trump Organization, and Donald Trump still owns it. Ethics have long been a concern for the potential for the family to profit off the presidency.
Eric Trump, his wife Lara Trump, Donald Trump Jr., and his girlfriend Bettina Anderson all flew to Aberdeen from the other side of Scotland with the president and the U.K. Prime Minister Keir Starmer, the White House said.
"We had an unlimited budget, and we exceeded it," Eric said of the new golf course. "This was his Mona Lisa."
Trump's mother Mary Anne MacLeod was born in Scotland and emigrated to New York in the 1930s. The Trump resort near Aberdeen has buildings with her name.

Trump administration freezes $108M at Duke amid inquiry into alleged racial discrimination
WASHINGTON (AP) — The Trump administration is freezing $108 million in research funding to Duke University as the federal government accuses the school of racial discrimination in the form of affirmative action, according to a person familiar with the matter. The National Institutes of Health halted the funding to the private university in North Carolina, said the person who spoke Wednesday on the condition of anonymity to discuss internal deliberations. Earlier this week, the Department of Health and Human Services and the Education Department sent a joint letter alleging racial preferences in Duke's hiring and admissions. Duke is the latest institution to have its federal funding held up as the government investigates allegations of antisemitism and diversity, equity and inclusion policies the administration says are unlawful. It follows other probes including at Harvard, Columbia, and Cornell. Duke did not immediately comment. In Monday's letter to Duke, leaders of HHS and the Education Department accused the university of 'vile racism.' It alludes to allegations of racial preferences at Duke, its medical school and its health system that, if substantiated, would make Duke 'unfit for any further financial relationship with the federal government.' The letter accuses Duke of providing racial preferences in recruiting, admissions, scholarships, hiring and more. It refers to allegations of discrimination without offering specific examples. 'Racism is a scourge when practiced by individuals, but it is especially corrosive when enshrined in the nation's most eminent and respected institutions,' according to the letter, signed by Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. and Education Secretary Linda McMahon. It's part of a broader campaign to eradicate DEI practices the Trump administration describes as discrimination against white and Asian American people. In their letter, the agencies order Duke to end any practices at its health system that give 'benefits or advantages' based on race. Saying Duke is unlikely to be capable of an 'honest and trustworthy review,' the letter takes the unusual step of requesting a new Merit and Civil Rights Committee that would be approved by the government and authorized by the school's board of trustees. The panel would be tasked with identifying and ending any racial preferences. If problems remained after six months, the administration would pursue legal enforcement, the letter said. The Education Department separately opened an investigation into the Duke Law Journal on Monday over allegations that it gave advantages to prospective editors from underrepresented groups. The Trump administration has used federal research funding as leverage in its effort to reshape universities that President Donald Trump has described as hotbeds of liberalism. It has presented a crisis for universities that rely on federal grants as a major source of revenue, spurring some to take on debt and find other ways to self-fund research. Duke University spent $1.5 billion on research last year, with nearly 60% coming from federal sources, according to the university's website. Even before the latest funding freeze, Duke faced financial turmoil. Last week, university leaders said almost 600 employees had accepted voluntary buyouts but that layoffs would still be needed. Officials said they needed to reduce costs amid uncertainty around federal research funding and a hike to the university's federal endowment tax. The Trump administration has been ratcheting up pressure on universities in hopes of striking deals like one that Columbia University signed last week. The Ivy League school agreed to pay $200 million and make changes to admissions, hiring, student discipline and more in exchange for regaining access to federal funding. The administration has described it as a template for other universities including Harvard, which has been in talks with the administration even as it battles the White House in court. ___ The Associated Press' education coverage receives financial support from multiple private foundations.

Bessent tells countries don't ‘panic' if trade deals aren't made before Aug. 1, insists US has ‘leverage' over China
WASHINGTON — Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent implored US trading partners Wednesday not to 'panic' if they don't agree to economic deals before President Trump's Friday tariff deadline — while explaining that the US hasn't yet signed off on a permanent agreement with China because Washington now has 'a lot more leverage.' 'If there's not a deal by Aug. 1, I would encourage market participants, corporate America, even the countries, not to panic, because you can still do a deal,' Bessent said in remarks at a forum hosted by Breitbart News at the Waldorf Astoria in the nation's capital. Bessent went on to predict a 'busy August' with duty rates set to jump from the current 10% to as high as 50%, giving countries additional incentive to come to the negotiating table. 3 U.S. Trade Representative Jamieson Greer speaks next to Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent during a press conference at government quarters Rosenbad after the trade talks between the U.S. and China concluded, in Stockholm, Sweden, July 29, 2025. via REUTERS Advertisement Trump and Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick have stressed that the deadline can not be extended any more and that the rates will go up regardless of how far along negotiations are with any country. 'No extensions, no more grace periods. Aug. 1, the tariffs are set; they'll go into place. Customs will start collecting the money, and off we go,' Lutnick said on 'Fox News Sunday.' 'Obviously, after Aug. 1, people can still talk to President Trump. I mean, he's always willing to listen, and between now and then, I think the president is going to talk to a lot of people. Whether they can make him happy is another question.' Advertisement Trump affirmed in an all-caps post on Truth Social Wednesday morning: 'The August first deadline is the August first deadline — it stands strong and will not be extended.' 3 Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent and Chinese Vice Premier He Lifeng stand for a photo during meetings in Stockholm, Sweden, on July 28, 2025. US Treasury Department/AFP via Getty Images Bessent made his remarks after returning to Washington from a much-anticipated meeting with Chinese representatives in Stockholm on Monday and Tuesday ahead of an Aug.12 deadline for a 34% reciprocal tariff to take effect against Beijing. The Treasury head said recent trade deals announced by the US — including with the European Union and Japan — created a 'lot more leverage' and promised China will not get a 'special deal,' despite being America's third largest trading partner among individual nations. Advertisement 'They were a little on their heels because we were — a week before, we had just done the Japanese trade deal, then the day before we began our talk … with the EU,' Bessent said. 'The world's with us now,' he added. 3 A container ship arrives at the port in Lianyungang, in China's eastern Jiangsu province on July 14, 2025. AFP via Getty Images Bessent and US Trade Representative Jamieson Greer have held three rounds of talks with the Chinese in an effort to open up Beijing's economy to US goods. Advertisement The US and China agreed to a trade truce in June, with Trump imposing a 30% tariff. That rate, which includes a 10% baseline tariff and another 20% as punishment for the flow of fentanyl ingredients from inside the Asian power, is significantly lower than the 145% rate Trump threatened at the peak of their trade war in the spring. But Trump appeared to be optimistic Sunday about the prospects of an agreement, telling reporters in Scotland 'we're very close to a deal with China.'
