Republican opposition to Trump’s $1.776 billion slush fund is continuing to grow. Rep. Mike Flood of Nebraska publicly came out against the fund, saying: “I do not think one penny of any fund should ever go to any January 6 insurrectionist.” Flood said taxpayers should not be funding people who committed violence against law enforcement. Meanwhile, Republican Rep. Brian Fitzpatrick and Democratic Rep. Tom Suozzi are now pushing bipartisan legislation to outlaw the fund entirely. At the same time, three separate federal lawsuits are already challenging the fund in court. Scott MacFarlane reports on the latest.

Scott MacFarlane reports on Trump’s $1.776 billion slush fund running into major resistance in the Senate. Even Trump allies are uncomfortable with taxpayer money potentially going to January 6 defendants and cop beaters. MacFarlane also reports growing concern on Capitol Hill that Trump may be using the controversy to distract from deeper issues involving his taxes and potential corruption exposure.

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.

ALERT: Scott MacFarlane reports there are now THREE federal lawsuits challenging Trump’s $1.776 billion slush fund. One lawsuit calls the fund a “jaw-dropping” act of corruption and self-dealing. Another was filed by former Capitol Police officer Harry Dunn and D.C. officer Daniel Hodges, who argue taxpayers should not be forced to subsidize January 6 rioters who still threaten law enforcement officers. A third federal suit argues the fund amounts to political favoritism benefiting supporters of one political figure over others. MacFarlane says the legal fights may now move faster than Congress itself. “This thing stinks,” he said. “It’s the political version of a sulfur mine.”

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.

Rep. Jeffries: "Lindsey Graham apparently is holding up the agreement, threatening to shut down the government because apparently Senate Republicans still support using taxpayer dollars to brutalize American citizens. And on top of it, to make matters worse, apparently Lindsey Graham wants access to a multi-million dollar taxpayer funded slush fund. That's insanity!"

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.

.Rep. Jamie Raskin: "“This is not his first slush fund. The Board of Peace is nothing but a global slush fund for Donald Trump. He took $1.5 billion from the State Department. That was money that was set aside for disaster relief around the world. He gave it to the Board of Peace. He took a billion from the Saudis. He took a billion from the UAE, took a billion from the Qataris.”

The only way to end Trump’s insurrectionist slush fund and tax fraud scheme is to ban it BY LAW. Chuck Schumer took to the floor to offer a bill to do just that. Within seconds, Senate Republicans objected – because they care more about Trump’s schemes than helping American families.

Scott MacFarlane reports that Democracy Forward has formally demanded the Trump administration preserve all records related to Trump’s $10 billion lawsuit against his own IRS. That lawsuit was abruptly dismissed before a federal judge could determine whether it was a collusive attempt to use the courts to bless a taxpayer-funded payout. Democracy Forward CEO Skye Perryman says the newly created fund is “completely unlawful” and that legal action is coming. As Perryman put it: “Preserve your documents, because we’re going to see you in court.”

President Trump dropped a $10 billion lawsuit against his own government in exchange for a $1.776 billion slush fund to steer our tax dollars to election deniers and insurrectionists. If our Republican colleagues have any respect for the Constitution and the powers of Congress, they will join us and put a stop to this rank corruption.

Trump on the $1.8B slush fund: "People have been hurt so badly by radical left lunatics…If it was up to me, I'd pay them the kind of money they deserve…I think the weaponization fund is a great idea and so do many other Republicans. You have to get it approved."

MacFarlane: It seems like things are falling in line here. Tillis said he is satisfied about Todd Blanche's answers on January 6th—even though Todd Blanche has been an apologist for January 6th defendants and championed the pardons, he's satisfied Tillis on that issue. The wedge issue does remain the slush fund. Tillis says he still wants better answers on what's become of that $1.76 billion taxpayer funded handout to convicted crooks. And if you look at that list of questions the senate has for Todd Blanche, that's the one that jumps out. I mean, it's like a grocery list full of things they want to know about, but the slush fund still lands the wrong way.

Rep. Jamie Raskin has introduced a proposal to create a special fund for police officers injured and traumatized on January 6. The fund would provide support to officers who were wounded, disabled, or left the profession, as well as to families who lost loved ones in the aftermath. More than 150 officers were injured defending the Capitol. As Scott MacFarlane reports, Democrats argue that if taxpayer money can be used to settle claims brought by January 6 rioters, taxpayer money should also help the officers who protected Congress and helped stop democracy from collapsing that day.
