A U.S. District Court Judge Leonie Brinkema ordered the Trump administration not to set up or operate a $1.8 billion Anti-Weaponization Fund. The fund was scheduled to be operated by the Department of Justice. The fund was planned as part of a settlement tied to President Donald Trump dropping a $10 billion lawsuit against the IRS. The DOJ described the fund as creating a systematic process to hear and redress claims from others who suffered weaponization and lawfare. The fund was also described as having authority to issue formal apologies and provide monetary relief owed to claimants. The matter was reported as developing and subject to updates.
