During a Cabinet meeting at Camp David, President Trump stated the “anti-weaponization” fund—established following a settlement with the IRS—is no longer active, effectively declaring it "dead." The fund's purpose was not detailed in the report. The questioning regarding the fund occurred alongside discussion of nominations, specifically that of Todd Blanche for Acting Attorney General. NBC News’ Gabe Gutierrez reported on the exchange, noting the President’s blunt assessment. The report also alluded to existing resistance to Blanche’s nomination, though details were sparse. It remains unclear what led to the President’s decision to halt the fund or the specific nature of the IRS settlement it stemmed from. Further information regarding the holdouts concerning Blanche’s appointment is also pending.
