WASHINGTON — 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.
“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.
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.
Federal tax dollars should never be shared with jurisdictions that refuse to attempt to maintain law and order. Let this be a warning to all American voters. Do not vote for any Soros-backed district attorneys or other Soros-backed local candidates.
Baltimore Mayor Stephanie Rawlings-Blake > "“I made it very clear that I work with the police and instructed them to do everything that they could to make sure that the protesters were able to exercise their right to free speech,” Rawlings-Blake said. “It’s a very delicate balancing act. Because while we try to make sure that they were protected from the cars and other things that were going on, we also gave those who wished to destroy.... space to do that as well. And we worked very hard to keep that balance and to put ourselves in the best position to de-escalate.”
This is what happens when the progressives vote in big government and want more taxes to make the Federal government stronger. You give control and power to a king and the king will rule your lives.
Cool, Seattle gets to keep their money instead of funding the country.
No kidding! They can now create more wonderful Chaz Communities, and takeover or burn down a few more police precincts
