Trump administration abandons $1.8 billion payout fund after revolt by GOP - The Washington Post
Overview
Acting Attorney General Todd Blanche announced the Justice Department would abandon plans for a nearly $1.8 billion compensation fund after intense pushback; Trump’s formal nomination of Blanche suggests that decision reflects leadership priorities he intends to keep in place. The reversal followed bipartisan scrutiny of the fund’s broad authority and was framed as removing a political obstacle to other agenda items.
