Brian Schwartz(@schwartzbWSJ):SCOOP: The Trump administration is considering an executive order that would list some nonprofit organizations as having terrorist ties, a move that would immediately suspend their tax-exempt status and cripple their operations. Officials are reviewing an arcane law that would allow President Trump to use an untested part of the tax code and write an executive order declaring groups linked to terrorism. Those groups would then automatically lose their coveted tax-exempt status. Story w/ @RichardRubinDC
