WASHINGTON — The Trump administration’s creation of a $1.8 billion “Anti-Weaponization Fund” is illegal and must be dissolved immediately, two police officers who were injured on Jan. 6, 2021, demanded in a lawsuit against the Justice Department on Wednesday.

The officers, former U.S. Capitol Police Officer Harry Dunn and Metropolitan Police Officer Daniel Hodges, allege the fund will directly finance far-right extremists and paramilitary groups who were involved in the Jan. 6 attack on the U.S. Capitol, and violates the 14th Amendment’s prohibition on the U.S. assuming or paying any debt or obligation “incurred in aid of insurrection or rebellion against the United States.” They also allege that it violates various statutes laid out in the Administrative Procedure Act, making the actions of the government officials involved illegal.

When first making the announcement, the Justice Department pointed to a 2011 settlement agreement known as Keepseagle v. Vilsack as proof that there was “legal precedent” for such a fund.

But Joe Sellers, lead counsel in the Keepseagle case, told HuffPost: “It’s a totally inapt analogy.”

Just wanted to say, these were killer.

Plump. Smoky. So many in the can. I could barely finish.

I had them on some crackers with a little bit of sliced parmesean. Would def recommend.

Rep. Jamie Raskin (D-Md.) notified acting Attorney General Todd Blanche on Tuesday that as part of a House Judiciary Committee investigation of institutional fraud and abuse, he is now digging into millions of dollars allegedly paid out to FBI agents who had been suspended, fired or had their security clearances revoked, including at least one agent who was in a restricted area at the Capitol on Jan. 6, 2021.
