The Department of Justice established a $1.8 billion fund as part of a legal settlement with former President Donald Trump, who agreed to drop his lawsuit against the Internal Revenue Service. According to Bluesky, Trump agreed to drop his lawsuit as part of an agreement to create the fund to compensate those who claim they have been targets of a 'weaponized' justice system. The South China Morning Post reported that the fund emerged from the settlement resolving Trump’s $10 billion lawsuit over the alleged mishandling of his tax records. Trump will receive an apology but no money from the settlement, according to Bluesky. The fund has been put on hold, according to the South China Morning Post, and Trump has halted the $1.8 billion fund, according to Al Jazeera. A judge has agreed to review the fund, according to NPR.
