Federal judge extends block on Trump administration's $1.8 billion 'Anti-Weaponization Fund'.
U.S. District Judge Leonie Brinkema extended a court order blocking the Trump administration from operating a $1.8 billion settlement fund intended to compensate victims of government weaponization. Acting Attorney General Todd Blanche told Congress the fund is being scrapped, but Brinkema ruled the administration's assurances were insufficient and gave parties one week to negotiate a formal declaration that the fund will not be revived.
