'They should be reimbursed': Jan. 6 defendants still eyeing payouts, despite scrapped $1.8B fund
Source: ABC News
Despite the Department of Justice saying it is scrapping plans to launch a $1.8 billion "Anti-Weaponization Fund," many Jan. 6 defendants are still eyeing payouts using other legal paths to secure settlements from the Trump administration.
One prominent attorney for Jan. 6 defendants told ABC News that he plans to submit claims against the federal government for approximately 400 clients, with a recent lawsuit he filed for nine people requesting at least $1 million in damages per person.
President Donald Trump seemingly endorsed similar attempts to receive compensation from the government, saying in a podcast this week that "they should be reimbursed" despite his administration dropping its proposed compensation fund.
"I'm very proud to have given them pardons. And I think they should be reimbursed for a crooked government," Trump said, appearing to reference the blanket clemency he granted to nearly 1,600 people associated with the Jan. 6, 2021 assault on the Capitol.
