President Donald Trump’s budget office this week ordered most government agencies to compile data on the federal money that is sent to 14 mostly Democratic-controlled states and the District of Columbia in what it describes as a tool to “reduce the improper and fraudulent use of those funds.”
The order comes a week after Trump said he intended to cut off federal funding that goes to states that are home to so-called sanctuary cities that resist his immigration policies.
The memo, obtained by The Associated Press, directs federal agencies to submit information by Jan. 28 to the president’s budget office.
It asks for a swath of information about money flowing to California, Colorado, Connecticut, Delaware, Illinois, Massachusetts, Minnesota, New Jersey, New York, Oregon, Rhode Island, Vermont, Virginia, Washington and the District of Columbia.
The memo applies to all federal departments and agencies except the Department of Defense, which the administration now refers to as the Department of War, and the Department of Veterans Affairs.
It asks for details about grants, loans and other federal funds provided to the states and local governments in those states, along with institutions of higher education and nonprofits in the states.

Yes! Because there is something going on.
Happens in red states too (Ohio).
Do it for Republican states, too. There are demonicRAT cities in red states.
I agree, red states too. I suggest avoid the partisan nature. Stop all federal money where there is WFA, WASTE, FRAUD, ABUSE regardless of who is doing it.
In 25 states, mostly the big ones, Deloitte is on of the biggest fraud operators.
Don’t forget blue cities in red states.
