President Donald Trump has threatened to file a lawsuit against a Washington, D.C.-based, left-leaning think tank unless the organization retracts a recent report. The dispute centers on the findings of the nonprofit's study, which questioned and contradicted Trump's claims regarding the effectiveness of his administration's National Guard deployments to various cities.
The legal threat was communicated via a formal letter demanding the retraction of the report's conclusions that the military deployments did not actually lessen crime rates as the former president has maintained. The targeted nonprofit is a research institution that focuses on policy analysis and public safety metrics.
