TL;DR Summary

Former President Donald Trump called on the Republican-led Congress to "defund" the Justice Department and FBI "until they come to their senses" in a post on his social media site, Truth Social. Trump's comments echoed those of some Republicans, including Rep. Jim Jordan, who said Congress should "limit funds going to some of these agencies" in retaliation for their treatment of Trump. However, a wholesale "defunding" of federal law enforcement agencies is unrealistic in a divided government and would face opposition even from some House Republicans.
