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.

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.

President Trump showing us once again, for the umpteenth time why we who voted for him made a very wise decision.
Can you imagine any of the other Republicans ordering such a move? Not in a million years.

Trump is playing them like a virtuoso violinist. My only thought is what took him so long?

“My only thought is what took him so long”?

Is that a complaint or are you just curious?

For years liberals have spent like drunken sailors and then asked for money.

What do you think a drunken sailor is going to do with more money?

“What shall we do with a drunken sailor, early in the morning?”

“Is that a complaint or are you just curious?”

The waste of time, over years, is a beef of mine, too. e.g, antifa, social media political-election interference and an assortment of other things that could have been taken care of, with little effort, years ago.

To give it time so people can see the extent of the destruction that happened and how the liberal politicians just watch it happen.
