President Donald Trump Signs Memo to Defund “Lawless” Democrat Cities of Portland, Seattle, New York and Washington D.C.






They’ll go without federal funds.

President Donald Trump has ordered a review of federal funding to left-wing Democrat cities that have cut their own police budgets in the wake of surging crime and left-wing riots, with the premise of stripping their federal law enforcement funding entirely should their fail to reverse weak on crime policies.

New York, Seattle, Portland, and Washington D.C. all stand to lose federal subsidies after scaling back their own police and suffering a considerable increase in crime.

“To ensure that Federal funds are neither unduly wasted nor spent in a manner that directly violates our Government’s promise to protect life, liberty, and property, it is imperative that the Federal Government review the use of Federal funds by jurisdictions that permit anarchy, violence, and destruction in America’s cities.”

The memo requires federal agencies that pay the subsidies to report to the White House Office of Management and Budget on their funding of the cities, and to detail how the local funding can be redirected.

That these threats just vaporize, with no comments from either side, isn't, probably, a good thing. Much as with the border wall debacle.
