Judge Temporarily Blocks Trump's Fund for Alleged Victims of Politicization
· Telemundo McAllen (KTLM)
A federal judge has temporarily blocked the disbursement of a fund created by former President Donald Trump for allies allegedly victimized by political bias in the justice system. Judge Leonie Brinkema, appointed by Bill Clinton, also halted the fund's establishment pending litigation. An upcoming hearing is set for June 12 to discuss extending the block on the $1.776 billion fund. The fund was intended to resolve Trump's lawsuit against the IRS over leaked tax returns. Critics, including some Republicans, have raised concerns about eligibility, including potential compensation for Capitol rioters. Multiple lawsuits challenge the fund's legality.
