The Trump administration is using various tactics to exert control over large urban centers, including deploying the National Guard and pressuring cities to adopt conservative policies by withholding federal funding. The administration is targeting issues like racial diversity, transgender rights, and immigration, and has rescinded funding from various federal programs. Cities are resisting, with dozens of local governments filing a lawsuit against the administration's conditions on grants. Experts say the administration's efforts are unprecedented and amount to 'political extortion.' The fiscal leverage is seen as a stronger tool than military deployments, particularly in cities like New York, where federal aid makes up a significant portion of the budget.
