US police officers sue Trump over $1.8bn ‘anti-weaponisation’ fund

Two police officers in Washington, DC, have sued President Donald Trump's administration over a $1.776 billion fund intended to compensate victims of alleged government 'weaponisation'. They aim to have the fund dissolved to prevent taxpayer money from being disbursed to participants in the January 6, 2021, Capitol attack. Plaintiffs Harry Dunn and Daniel Hodges, who were injured during the attack, argue that the fund would finance the violent operations of rioters.
