The “Anti-Weaponization Fund” was announced by the Justice Department as part of a deal to resolve Trump’s case over the leak of his tax returns. When asked whether money from the fund would go to protesters convicted of assaulting officers at the U.S. Capitol on Jan. 6, 2021, Vance said they’re “trying to compensate people where the book was thrown at them, they were mistreated by the legal system,” and that they’re “going to evaluate these things on a case-by-case basis.” For more info, please go to https://ift.tt/yEQ89oF Subscribe to Global News Channel HERE: http://bit.ly/20fcXDc Follow Global News on X HERE: http://bit.ly/1Toz8mt Follow Global News on TikTok HERE: https://ift.tt/aU1jgtB #GlobalNews
