Newsom to impose 100% tax on California payees of Trump’s $1.8bn fund
California Governor Gavin Newsom plans to impose a 100% tax on payouts from Donald Trump’s $1.776 billion 'anti-weaponization fund' to block the president’s plan to divert money to allies, including January 6 rioters. The fund, announced by the Department of Justice, aims to compensate alleged 'victims of lawfare and weaponization,' though eligibility criteria remain unclear.
