The U.S. Justice Department has canceled hundreds of ongoing grants that funded everything from services for mental health care for police officers to support programs for victims of crime and sexual assault,

The Justice Department terminated hundreds of grants this week, effectively slashing the budgets for organizations across the country that assist crime victims and fight both gun violence and opioid abuse.

Some of the hundreds of grants were mysteriously reinstated, but it’s unclear how many or why they were cut in the first place.

Attorney General Pam Bondi reversed a Biden-era policy that restricted federal prosecutors from seizing reporters' communications records, according to an internal memo obtained by CBS News.

The Justice Department is poised to crack down on leaks of information to the news media, authorizing prosecutors to issue subpoenas to news organizations as part of leak investigations, serve search warrants when appropriate and force journalists to testify about their sources.

The U.S. Justice Department under President Donald Trump made it easier for prosecutors investigating leaks to the news media to subpoena records and testimony from journalists, according to a memo seen by Reuters on Friday that reversed a Biden-era policy.
