President Trump on Wednesday signed a memo ordering federal agencies to defund “anarchist jurisdictions” including New York City, Seattle and Portland.
The New York Post reported:
President Trump is ordering the federal government to begin the process of defunding New York City and three other cities where officials allowed “lawless” protests and cut police budgets amid rising violent crime, The Post can exclusively reveal.
Trump on Wednesday signed a five-page memo ordering all federal agencies to send reports to the White House Office of Management and Budget that detail funds that can be redirected.
New York City, Washington, DC, Seattle and Portland are initial targets as Trump makes “law and order” a centerpiece of his reelection campaign after months of unrest and violence following the May killing of George Floyd by Minnesota police.
“My Administration will not allow Federal tax dollars to fund cities that allow themselves to deteriorate into lawless zones,” Trump says in the memo, which twice mentions New York Mayor Bill de Blasio by name.
Enough is Enough!

Based on China negotiations, this is not the final monetary pile on Trump has planned.

By tomorrow morning, some Obama commie judge will rescind this. Tomorrow morning huh?
How much you willing to bet on that?

IIRC, He tried this with sanctuary cities and an Obama judge ordered him to fund the cities anyway. I like to attempt, but I don’t think it will work.
Still, it’s a great answer to Cuomo’s stupid demand for 500B bailout, which, I expect, he thought would all go to NYC.
“You want 500B? How ‘bout we take away what you’re already getting, Nipples?”

Why would he obey a judge? Obama never obeyed one. Or is it the deep state doing what it wants?

Washington DC. Those lawless attacks, with intent to seriously injure or worse, on US Senator Rand Paul and his wife have come back to bite the DC mayor in her big ugly butt.
If even US Senators are not safe from Dem backed and funded terrorists in DC, who is?

Just watch him.
Trump did an executive order to fund payments for the unemployed and it's still in effect, no?
Despite all the threats of suing from Schumer and Pelosi.

These are funds that can be redirected. That is discretionary funds. Sure he can direct those funds.
