A nearly $1.8 billion DOJ-controlled fund cannot be created, defined, and distributed in the shadows. Today, I called on Acting Attorney General Todd Blanche to provide immediate transparency on the Department’s newly announced “Anti-Weaponization Fund.” By June 1, DOJ must answer three basic questions: Where is the money coming...

Nearly $1.8 billion in taxpayer money cannot be moved into a new DOJ fund without clear legal authority, defined eligibility standards, or oversight. The American people deserve to know where the money is coming from, who may receive payments from it, and what safeguards exist to protect taxpayers. Yesterday, I called on DOJ to provide those answers. And today, I introduced the Bipartisan Transparency for American Taxpayers Act with Tom Suozzi to ensure federal funds cannot be used for the “Anti-Weaponization Fund”. Taxpayer dollars will never be turned into a discretionary payout fund. Transparency is not optional. Accountability is not negotiable. 🔗: I joined Jake Tapper 🦅 to discuss—watch below ⬇️:

At a time when families are working harder than ever to keep up with the cost of living, we need to be focused on protecting taxpayers— not a nearly $1.8 billion discretionary payout fund created through an abuse of existing law. I joined Katie Couric to discuss my bill to stop the DOJ “Anti-Weaponization Fund” before a single dime goes out the door. We broke down what this fund is, how discharge petitions work, and why we are prepared to use every tool available to protect taxpayers and stop this fund from moving forward, plus more. 🔗 Watch a clip below and listen to our full conversation here:

Kaitlan Collins: "Is the $1.8 billion DOJ fund dead or is it on hold?" Trump: "I'd have to ask the lawyers...The weaponization fund, as far as I'm concerned, was a beautiful thing...People like you have abused our people so badly...you should be ashamed of yourself."

THIS IS WHY REPUBLICANS ARE REVOLTING AGAINST THE DOJ FUND. According to reports from a closed-door Senate meeting, the Acting Attorney General could not guarantee that the proposed $1.776 billion anti-weaponization fund would exclude January 6 defendants. That got lawmakers' attention. The concern wasn't about the size of the fund. It was whether people convicted of assaulting police officers during the Capitol attack could potentially receive compensation from it. That's why opposition isn't just coming from Democrats. It's coming from Republicans who say that possibility is a political and moral nonstarter.

#BREAKING: Hayes: “Acting AG Todd Blanche told Congress not to worry about the $1.8 billion slush fund for insurrectionists…The DOJ then told the court the same thing—don’t worry, it’s moot, it’s dropped, and then last week, the judge said okay, fine, put it in writing. She ordered Blanche and Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent and an associate AG to all sign ‘a declaration under the penalty of perjury, they will not take any action to create or operate the anti-weaponization fund and that the anti-weaponization fund will not proceed in any manner or under any name.’ Well, today was the deadline for that and guess what? They came back to the court and they said no, we’re NOT doing it. We’re NOT filing any declaration to officially kill the fund, which probably means the slush fund is NOT dead.”🙄🤦‍♀️

Pres. Trump's so-called "anti-weaponization" fund was a key issue behind a GOP Senate rebellion against the president, and acting attorney general Todd Blanche was the public face of it. But some Republicans chose not to kill the fund with legislation. The question is why.

When asked by CBS News’ Nancy Cordes whether people who committed violence against Capitol Police officers on January 6 should be eligible for compensation from a new DOJ fund, President Trump said the decision would be left to a committee of “highly respected” people. "I do believe there has to be compensation for people that were destroyed," Trump said. Trump and the Justice Department reached a $1.7 billion settlement in the president's lawsuit against the IRS and Treasury Department over the leak of his tax returns. A $1.776 billion "Anti-Weaponization Fund" will be created Acting Attorney General Todd Blanche's direction to "provide a systematic process to hear and redress claims of others who suffered weaponization and lawfare."

JUST IN: A federal judge put Trump's $1.7 billion slush fund on notice. Judge Richard Leon pressed DOJ lawyers to put in writing that the fund isn't moving forward. When asked why they wouldn't, the DOJ's answer was: "I don't know." The fund survived today's hearing, but the judge delivered a pointed warning to the DOJ: if the administration is telling the court the fund is not moving forward, then it better not move forward. Scott MacFarlane reports.

Trump sued his own government for $10 billion. Today he settled with the DOJ he runs and cut the judge out of the process. The deal: a $1.8 billion taxpayer-funded slush fund his Attorney General controls, with no court oversight and no transparency. It’s the most corrupt scheme of his presidency.
