Police officers who defended US Capitol on January 6 sue to stop Trump’s ‘anti-weaponization’ fund

Inside Peacock Alley at the Waldorf Astoria — the place “to see and be seen,” according to the hotel’s website — Martin dined with Republican operative Norm Coleman.

Acting attorney general Todd Blanche had officially launched an unprecedented compensation fund for supposed victims of political "weaponization" under former president Joe Biden.

The proposed Justice Department-backed fund — part of a deal for Trump to drop a $10 billion lawsuit over the leak of his tax information — would compensate people who claim unfair targeting by the federal government.

Former Trump administration official and political adviser Michael Caputo on Tuesday became the first high-profile figure to make a public claim to a payout from the administration’s controversial new $1.8 billion “Anti-Weaponization” fund, which critics have argued is a means to enrich the president’s allies.
