U.S. District Judge Leonie Brinkema in Alexandria, Virginia, on Friday also barred the government from moving forward with the fund's creation while litigation is pending to challenge it.
The judge, who was nominated to the bench by President Bill Clinton, a Democrat, scheduled a June 12 hearing for arguments on whether to extend the order blocking payouts from an "Anti-Weaponization Fund." The government created the fund to resolve Trump's lawsuit against the Internal Revenue Service over the leak of his tax returns.
Judge temporarily blocks payouts from Trump's $1.8B 'anti-weaponization' settlement fund
First, this isn't earmarked for J6 people. As has been said, they can apply with no guarantee of getting payment as can anyone else. Would you rather the government pays out the entire amount to Trump? How about the original amount of the lawsuit straight to Trump? Trump is saving the government from having to pay out billions more
For your argument to be correct, you have to start at the beginning. Why does Trump deserve 1.8 billion dollars?
It's not my place to say he does or doesn't, that was for the court to decide until the settlement was arrived at. Trump is arguing he deserved much more for the release of his private information in what plausibly was a hit job.
No court awarded Trump 1.8 billion dollars. Trump literally settled with people he manages. Shouldn't that smell funny?
I never said a court awarded Trump anything. Everything in government smells funny.
You made the following statement:
"Trump is saving the government from having to pay out billions more."
In order for this to be true, you have to believe that Trump has earned 1.8+ billion dollars. Please demonstrate why Trump deserves this money.
I never said he deserves it, that wasn't for me to decide. The government would have either paid out more in court fees or in a larger settlement/ruling.
