Two officers who defended the US Capitol during the Jan. 6, 2021 riots filed a lawsuit to thwart the setting up of a $1.8 billion pool of money set aside for victims of federal government weaponization, arguing it encourages violence by "rioters, paramilitaries and their supporters."
The two officers accused the administration of creating a "slush fund" to reward rioters and groups that committed violence on behalf of President Trump.
