Two police officers who defended the US Capitol on January 6, 2021, filed a lawsuit challenging a newly created $1.8 billion Trump 'anti-weaponization' fund, arguing that it is intended to shield former President Donald Trump from accountability for his actions surrounding the insurrection at the Capitol. The officers claim that the fund's purpose was to 'weaponize' the justice system against individuals who criticize or oppose the former president. They seek to stop the distribution of funds meant for defense costs to ensure their own safety and protection.
