"Cut water off" = Bị cắt nước -> Đè bẹp/phá ngang/giẫm nát ai đó.

Ví dụ
Abrams “has these billionaire (tỉ phú) socialists (người theo chủ nghĩa xã hội) pumping money (chất đầy tiền)” into her nonprofit (phi lợi nhuận) voting rights organizations, Jason Thompson, Republican National Committeeman from Georgia, told the same gathering. He told them to take action to cut her water off.

In the Sherman case, Selective Insurance cites Steve Sherman's claim that the town "feared the development of an undesirable ultra-Orthodox Jewish community and that those fears fueled the town's discriminatory conduct (sự quản lý phân biệt đối xử) and motive (động cơ) to continually deny" Sherman's subdivision applications (đơn xin phân khu vực nhỏ), and to change zoning (chia phân khu) laws to cut his water off.

One of his most aggressive efforts (nỗ lực gây hấn, công kích) to cut my water off coming during the weeks after I finished a year of volunteer work in Israel and was living at home. I was in my bedroom with the door closed, sitting at a built-in desk where I collated (so sánh, đối chiếu, sắp xếp) sheets of heavy bond paper and stuffed them into envelopes (bỏ vào phong bì) I’d carefully addressed. These were typewritten cover letters and resumés intended for policy institutes (viện chính sách), research centers, and think tanks. I wanted to get an entry level research job or a paid internship (thực tập có lương).
