Blanche asserts ‘anti-weaponization’ fund is dead, wins key GOP support in US Senate

Acting Attorney General Todd Blanche submitted a written assurance rescinding the administration’s $1.8 billion 'anti-weaponization' fund, securing support from Senate Judiciary Committee members John Cornyn and Thom Tillis. The move addressed concerns about the fund’s use for pardoned Jan. 6 defendants and clarified limitations on an IRS settlement agreement.
