Trump pushes to defund ‘anarchist’ jurisdictions, including New York City, Portland & Seattle
“Anarchist” jurisdictions and cities that allow violent protests and cut police budgets will face the loss of federal funding, says the latest executive memo from US President Donald Trump ramping up his “law and order” campaign.
A five-page memo sent to federal agencies on Wednesday orders them to report to the White House Office of Management and Budget on any funding that could be redirected. New York City, Portland, Seattle and even Washington, DC are among the initial targets of the measure.
