Trump’s controversial “Anti-Weaponization Fund” is officially dead after he publicly clashed with his own administration over dropping the $1.8 billion compensation plan for those prosecuted — including January 6 defendants — sparking a political firestorm. The move has stalled confirmation of Todd Blanche as attorney general, as GOP Senators Cornyn and Tillis demand written assurances the fund won’t revive, while also pressing for clarity on a separate tax immunity clause that could shield Trump’s business empire from future audits. Talks remain tense, with senators citing presidential interference — possibly via adviser Boris Epshteyn — and legal hurdles mounting as Trump’s team prepares to appeal a judge’s damning ruling on the IRS settlement, which labeled it self-dealing and targeted Blanche for misconduct.
