Federal Judge Extends Block on Trump's $1.8 Billion Anti-Weaponization Fund
A federal judge in Virginia extended a block on the Trump administration's proposed Anti-Weaponization Fund, a $1.8 billion program for alleged victims of political 'weaponization,' and allowed a lawsuit challenging the plan to proceed.
The judge gave the administration a week to provide a sworn statement that the fund will not move forward. The order came despite statements from US officials that the project would not move forward, and the judge signaled she could drop the matter if the administration more definitively disavows it.
