What happened

Some supportReported by 1 outlet

The Justice Department designated New York City, Portland, and Seattle as "anarchist jurisdictions" following guidelines issued by Donald Trump. This designation was made because the Justice Department views these cities as having permitted violence and property destruction to persist. The designation carries the potential for designated cities to lose federal funding.

Why it matters

Some supportBrind's analysis of the reports

Federal grants account for billions of dollars of New York City's annual budget. The designation threatens this funding, which could have financial consequences for the cities. New York City has threatened to sue over any move to defund the city.
