The Trump administration has created a $1.8 billion MAGA slush fund that could send taxpayer money to Trump allies, donors, political operatives, former advisers, Republican lawmakers, and even violent January 6 insurrectionists.
This fund is being sold as compensation for people who claim they were ‘mistreated’ by the federal government, but the details are outrageous. Acting Attorney General Todd Blanche has said there is “no limitation on the claims” and acknowledged that Trump campaign donors could seek compensation. He also refused to rule out payouts to people who assaulted police officers during the January 6 insurrection.
What’s worse, this scheme could operate with limited transparency, leaving the public in the dark about who gets paid, how much they receive, and why their claims were approved.
Taxpayer dollars should not be used to reward Trump loyalists, rewrite January 6 as persecution, or turn MAGA grievance into a government funded payday.
Add your name now to demand Congress block taxpayer funds from being used for Trump’s MAGA slush fund!
