BREAKING: TOTAL DEFEAT! Trump abandons his $1.8 billion slush fund for insurrectionists and MAGA pedophiles after America revolted against the deeply corrupt plan.
This is a humiliating black eye for the White House…
“It’s dead for now,” one senior administration official told Axios. Another top official confirmed the plan to scuttle the initiative.
The so-called “weaponization” fund become a massive scandal in recent weeks, as average Americans spoke out against the idea of their hard-earned tax dollars lining the pockets of people who sought to violently overthrow our democracy. At one point, Attorney General Todd Blanche even refused to rule out the possibility that a January 6th rioter who was pardoned by Trump and went on to molest two children might receive some of the money.
Now, none of these MAGA monsters will see a penny.
The decision by Trump to wave the white flag and issue a full-blown retreat comes in the wake of decisions by two federal judges against the slush fund. U.S. District Judge Leonie M. Brinkema blocked the disbursement of the money and U.S. District Judge Kathleen Williams announced that she would be undertaking an inquiry. Williams oversaw the original lawsuit from Trump and the Trump Organization against the IRS that resulted in the crooked settlement to create the slush fund. Trump sued his own government, then settled with himself.
“We’re planning to respect the courts,” one administration official told Axios.
Trump was also running into stiff headwinds from his own party. Republican lawmakers knew that supporting this fund would hurt them politically and at the end of the day self-interest is the only thing that motivates them.
“This has become a distraction,” said another. “The President believes government was weaponized against people — it wasn’t just him. But this isn’t the time and vehicle for it.”
Translation: “We realize that we can’t win in court and this fund is political suicide, so we’re giving up.”
The simple fact is that Trump doesn’t have the political capital to fight this battle. He is incredibly unpopular thanks to his pointless Iran War, skyrocketing gas and grocery prices, and ongoing Epstein coverup. Adding a blatantly illegal scheme to fleece the American people on behalf of his followers is just a bridge too far with the midterms right around the corner.
This is a potent reminder that when we fight back, we can win!
