BREAKING: YES! A federal judge BLOCKS Trump's $1.776 billion slush fund for insurrectionists and child molesters — meaning that none of them will see a PENNY until the lawsuits resolve.
MAGA world is absolutely howling now...
U.S. District Judge Leonie M. Brinkema has temporarily blocked the so-called “anti-weaponization fund" after a January 6th prosecutor and several others sued to block the money from being dispersed.
“President Trump and his allies have long accused Democrats of using the government and the legal system as political weapons,” the plaintiffs’ lawyers wrote. “In doing so, the (Trump) administration fails to acknowledge the unprecedented campaign of targeting individuals and entities for retribution on personal and ideological grounds that it has carried out.”
The White House now finds itself in the unenviable position of having promised money to Trump loyalists — many of whom have a history of political violence — and being unable to deliver it. Judge Brinkema's block "includes the transferring of money to the fund; the consideration of any claims submitted to the fund; and the disbursing of any funds from the fund."
The judge stated that her ruling was necessary to “ensure that no funds are irreversibly disbursed from the ‘Anti-Weaponization Fund’ while the legal cases are resolved."
“The unlawfulness that has imbued the Anti-Weaponization Fund from its inception requires that it be wholly dismantled,” the lawsuit stated.
We couldn't agree more. This slush fund is a wholesale heist of the public treasury. Trump wants to take our hard-earned tax dollars — at a time when so many of us are struggling to even afford groceries thanks to his failed policies — and give it to the worst people that this country has to offer. He wants to reward his loyalists for trying to overthrow our democracy and in the process, incentivize them to try it again in the future.
Egregiously, Acting Attorney General Todd Blanche has even refused to rule out the possibility that a January 6th rioter who was pardoned by Trump and went on to molest children might receive money from the fund. And that's just scratching the surface. This money is intended for pedophiles, traitors, and monsters. It must be stopped.
Next, the courts must block this slush fund entirely!
Please ❤️ and share to thank the judge!
Another MAGA pedophile pig. 😡 This is 57 yr old Scott Soucek, husband of Wisconsin Door County GOP Chair, Stephanie Soucek. He was sentenced to 3 years in prison after pleading no contest to possession of child sexual abuse materials and bestiality. https://t.co/geaTZNmrM0
