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!

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.

As far as DC goes, can’t Trump take it over? It is Federal territory.

Ms. Lite-in-the-brain’s Chicago could be next ?

Ya gotta see this 2 minute Trump ad!

I guarantee you won't be sorry.

The murder of Aaron “Jay” Danielson in Portland. [7 minute video]
Was this a planned hit, or just the incidental accidental murder of a pro-Trump conservative?
Are the Antifa/BLM/RevCom hit teams already busy?
Sure looks like it to me.
Watch the entire 7 minutes and decide.

Seattle also has a consent decree with the DOJ regarding police reforms. This was negotiated by the then US Attorney for Western Washington Jenny Durkin. Jenny Durkin is now the mayor of Seattle. The city has been put on notice by the Federal judge who has jurisdiction to enforce the decree that they will be in violation of the decree if they cut the police funding.

So Mayor Jenny has been “trying” to push back but the commies on the city council are dug in.

New York, New York! That Coddlin’ Town!

[Extremely Extreme Extremist]

No need to defund NYC.

When winter hits the city and state will go into a deep freeze because idiot Cuomo shut down the nuke plant.

I like the attempt, too. But I don’t think it should work. When you think about it, it’s not the job of the president to make (or change) policy. It’s the job of Congress. That’s what the Founders intended.

(And yes, I know. They all do it anyway.)

[dandiegirl]

Excellent!

[digger48]

What Congress giveth, only Congress can taketh away

there are, however, some grant moneys that the Executive controls

[MagnoliaB]

Will a corrupt judge be able to block him from doing it?

[ProtectOurFreedom]

That was my very first reaction, too. By tomorrow morning, some Obama commie judge will rescind this.

PDJT is kicking the communist a$$es !

[DannyTN]

Who is #4?
