    Trump admin pushes back on 'slush fund' attacks against Anti-Weaponization Fund and lays out who qualifies

    The Trump administration is defending its $1.778 billion Justice Department Anti-Weaponization Fund against criticism that it functions as a slush fund for Trump allies and January 6 rioters. The fund, created from a Trump-IRS lawsuit settlement, aims to compensate individuals harmed by politicized federal investigations on a case-by-case basis. The program has derailed Senate negotiations on a $72 billion ICE and Border Patrol funding package, with both Republican and Democratic lawmakers expressing concern about potential conflicts of interest.
