Acting Attorney General Todd Blanche was left squirming and evasive when cornered over whether the Trump administration was preparing to dole out millions of taxpayer dollars to violent offenders who attacked Capitol Hill police on January 6.
The Justice Department revealed the creation of a new $1.776 billion fund to pay out to people who claim to be victims of government weaponization. It was announced after Donald Trump dropped his own $10 billion lawsuit against the IRS.
But when confronted about the fund in a hearing on Capitol Hill on Tuesday, Blanche would not rule out the funds being handed to violent offenders or Trump’s own allies and political donors.
