US halts $1.8bn fund for victims of alleged government 'weaponisation'

A US$1.8 billion fund established by President Donald Trump to compensate victims of alleged government "weaponisation" has been put on hold by federal judges in Virginia and Florida. The fund, intended to address claims of government abuse, faced legal challenges and political backlash, including concerns that individuals involved in the January 6 Capitol attack could benefit. The Justice Department stated it disagrees with the ruling but will comply with the court's order.
