Former Vice President Mike Pence denounced the Trump administration’s $1.8 billion “Anti-Weaponization Fund,” saying it would be “unacceptable” and “deeply offensive” for January 6 rioters to obtain “one dime of taxpayer money.”
Pence, who was a target of rioters storming the Capitol on January 6, 2021, said that he hopes the administration will drop the idea of the fund, created by the Justice Department to provide monetary relief to those who believe they were wrongfully prosecuted.
