Dozen GOP rebels fail to permanently kill Trump's controversial $2B fund
Senate Republicans blocked an amendment to permanently eliminate President Donald Trump's $2 billion 'anti-weaponization' fund, despite internal criticism and concerns about its potential misuse. The failed amendment aimed to redirect the funding to a fraud prevention account, but both parties opposed removing the fund, which originated from a Trump family IRS settlement and faces scrutiny over risks for individuals linked to the Jan. 6 Capitol riot.
