Trump’s $1.8 billion ‘lawfare’ fund is making Republicans nervous

The Justice Department's new $1.8 billion 'Anti-Weaponization Fund' created from Trump's lawsuit settlement is drawing concerns from both Democrats and Republicans in the Senate. Acting Attorney General Todd Blanche faced tough questioning about how the fund would operate, who would receive compensation, and whether Jan. 6 rioters could qualify for payouts. Senate Republican leaders, including Majority Leader John Thune, expressed discomfort with the fund and questioned its purpose.
