Officers who defended Capitol from rioters sue to block payouts from $1.8B ‘anti-weaponization’ fund

Two police officers who defended the US Capitol from rioters are suing to block payouts from a $1.776 billion settlement fund. The fund is intended for people who claim to be victims of politically motivated prosecutions. The officers' lawsuit claims the fund is an illegal slush fund that will finance insurrectionists and paramilitary groups.
