US police officers sue Trump over $1.8bn anti-weaponisation' fund

Two police officers in Washington, DC, have sued the administration of President Donald Trump over its decision to establish a $1.776bn fund to compensate victims of alleged government weaponisation. In their lawsuit, filed on Wednesday, officers Harry Dunn and Daniel Hodges call the fund the most brazen act of presidential corruption this century. They are aiming to have the fund dissolved in order to prevent taxpayer money from being disbursed to participants in the attack against the United States Capitol on January 6, 2021.
