Blanche Withdraws Trump Fund Plan
Acting US Attorney General Todd Blanche has formally withdrawn President Trump's proposed $1.8 billion "anti-weaponisation" fund, which aimed to compensate individuals prosecuted over the January 6 Capitol riot. The move was made to satisfy Senate Republicans, who had concerns over the fund's scope and potential protections for Trump and his family from IRS audits. This withdrawal clears the path for Blanche's confirmation as permanent attorney general.
