Trump reconsidering $1.8 billion fund, AP source says, as Justice Department temporarily pauses it

The fund, tied to Trump's lawsuit against the Internal Revenue Service over tax return leaks, faces legal challenges and Senate opposition requiring parameters before funding immigration enforcement agencies.
