There have been some rumors earlier this week that, because it was going through plenty of pushback in court<\/a>, within the media, and even amongst (just a few) fellow Republicans<\/a> in Congress, Donald Trump was going to drop his blatantly unconstitutional, illegal, and corrupt $1.776 billion slush fund<\/a> for MAGA insurrectionists. And now it\u2019s\u2026 sorta formally useless\u2026 however not likely.<\/p>\n

Testifying earlier than Congress, Appearing Lawyer Normal and full-time Trump toady, told representatives<\/a> \u201cwe’re not transferring ahead with the weaponization fund.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n

Appearing Lawyer Normal Todd Blanche stated Tuesday that the Trump administration is scrapping plans to create a $1.8 billion fund meant to compensate allies of the Republican president after widespread political backlash and setbacks within the courts.<\/em><\/p>\n

\u201cWe aren’t transferring ahead with the fund, interval,\u201d Blanche stated.<\/em><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

However in the event you watch the precise video, it\u2019s not fairly so concrete:<\/p>\n

BLANCHE: We aren’t transferring ahead with the weaponization fund. Interval. MENG: May we get that in writing?BLANCHE: I am telling you it isn’t progressingMENG: We hope to see this in writingBLANCHE: I believe there will likely be a transcript of what I say right here<\/p>\n

As Rep. Grace Meng asks for Blanche to place it into writing that the fund just isn’t transferring ahead, Blanche declines to take action. Moreover, he refuses to say if the equally corrupt, illegal, and problematic deal<\/a> to not have the IRS audit the president and his household can also be going away (that means that it\u2019s not going away). In fact, he additionally lies and claims that the settlement is between \u201cthe IRS\u201d and Trump, which is solely incorrect. The IRS by no means signed the settlement. It was carried out by Blanche and the DOJ. He additionally tries to (falsely) declare that the audit immunity is \u201cnot blanket immunity,\u201d which is simply false:<\/p>\n

DeLAURO: So the blanket immunity for the Trumps just isn’t one thing you are going transfer again on?BLANCHE: It is not blanket immunity. That is not trueD: It’s!B: No it is notD: \u2026.. B: Nothing has modified with thatD: Buddies, hear to what’s being stated right here. That is actually fairly extraordinary<\/p>\n

As Rep. DeLauro reads, Blanche\u2019s order (once more, not an official \u201csettlement with the IRS regardless of Blanche\u2019s false claims) provides very clear blanket immunity to Donald Trump, his household, and his companies:<\/p>\n

\n

America RELEASES, WAIVES, ACQUITS, and FOREVER DISCHARGES every of the Plaintiffs from, and is hereby FOREVER BARRED and PRECLUDED from prosecuting or pursuing, any and all claims, counterclaims, causes of motion, appeals, or requests for any aid, together with injunctive aid, financial aid, damages, examinations or related or associated opinions, appeals, debt aid, prices, legal professional\u2019s charges, bills, and\/or curiosity, whether or not presently identified or unknown, that as of the Efficient Date of the Settlement Settlement-have been or might have been asserted by Defendants in opposition to any of the Plaintiffs or associated or affiliated people (together with, with out limitation, household or others submitting collectively), or events together with trusts, guardian, sister, or associated corporations, associates, and subsidiaries, by motive of, with respect to, in reference to, or which come up out of (1) any issues that have been raised or might have been raised within the Case or the Pending Company Claims; (2) Lawfare and\/or Weaponization; or (3) any issues at the moment pending or that could possibly be pending (together with tax returns filed earlier than the Efficient Date) earlier than Defendants or different businesses or departments.<\/em><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

That’s blanket immunity. Full cease.<\/p>\n

However right here\u2019s the inform: if Blanche\u2019s \u201cwe’re not transferring ahead, interval\u201d have been truly true, you\u2019d anticipate the individuals who stood to profit to be disenchanted. They\u2019re not. January sixth insurrectionists, together with Proud Boys Chief Enrique Tarrio \u2014 convicted of seditious conspiracy<\/a> and later pardoned by Trump \u2014 nonetheless appear to assume they\u2019re going to money in. Tarrio has been saying he deserves tens of millions of dollars<\/a>, and moderately than expressing any disappointment at Blanche\u2019s testimony, he\u2019s explaining why that is truly excellent news for him, as a result of it means he can get more cash from the US authorities with much less oversight.<\/p>\n

Proud Boy Enrique Tarrio says the quiet half out loud:Even when Trump scraps the Anti-Weaponization Fund, the DOJ might nonetheless settle separate lawsuits introduced by Jan. 6 Capitol attackers \u2014doubtlessly handing out thousands and thousands in taxpayer {dollars} to individuals who participated within the assault.<\/p>\n

When you can\u2019t see that, it\u2019s Tarrio texting reporter Liz Landers:<\/p>\n

\n

This isn\u2019t an abandonment. They merely state they\u2019re going to attend two weeks\u2026 I imagine even when this fund is killed in courts or at a congressional degree, the President will discover a approach\u2026 <\/em>They will simply settle the tort claims and lawsuits. That has no judicial evaluation or congressional oversight. And it might imply much more cash in compensation<\/em><\/strong>.<\/em><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

Tarrio\u2019s principle \u2014 and certain shared by different J6ers \u2014 is that they sue the US authorities, Trump and Blanche comply with \u201csettle,\u201d and thousands and thousands of taxpayer {dollars} move out by way of the prevailing Judgment Fund (the identical pot the anti-weaponization fund was drawing from) with zero oversight and nil congressional approval.<\/p>\n

And he may not be incorrect.<\/p>\n

It\u2019s additionally why a reliable Congress would step in and shut all of this down. If we had a reliable Congress. Which we don\u2019t.<\/p>\n

In some unspecified time in the future there must be an actual reckoning with how damaged the system already is \u2014 that Trump and Blanche acquired this far is itself an indictment of how unhealthy issues are.<\/p>\n
