US PROTESTS — Trump threatens to cut funding to New York and other protest sites

United States President Donald Trump said Wednesday he'd cut federal funds to cities if notable protests against racism continue there, including New York, Washington, Seattle and Portland (Oregon), which he branded «anarchist jurisdictions.»

Trump signed a document distributed by the White House declaring that his administration «will not allow federal taxpayer dollars to fund cities that have deteriorated to lawless areas.»EFE-EPA
