Acting Attorney General Todd Blanche officially rescinded Donald Trump’s controversial $1.8 billion anti-weaponization fund after weeks of pressure from Republican Senators John Cornyn and Thom Tillis, clearing a major hurdle in his Attorney General confirmation battle. The Justice Department declared, “There is no Fund,” confirming no money was transferred, no board was formed, and no claims were ever paid, while also narrowing tax audit protections tied to the IRS settlement. Will this dramatic U-turn secure Blanche’s confirmation, and how will Donald Trump respond after previously defending the fund and warning GOP holdouts? #ToddBlanche #DonaldTrump #AttorneyGeneral #AGConfirmation #DOJ #JohnCornyn #ThomTillis #AntiWeaponizationFund #IRS #Senate #TrumpNews #USPolitics #BreakingNews #DOJNews #Politics ► Subscribe to The Economic Times for the latest video updates.
