特朗普总统周五表示其18亿美元的反武器化基金已"死亡"1，同时继续为该基金进行辩护1。根据特朗普的说法，政府官员已同意不设立该基金1。然而，参议员蒂利斯表示"总统今天明确表示所谓的反武器化基金仍然存在"1，这与特朗普的声明产生了直接矛盾。
共和党参议员科尔尼和蒂利斯因反对该基金而阻挠司法部长提名人布兰奇的确认1。两位参议员要求白宫以书面形式承诺不创建该基金1。根据科尔尼的表述，该基金可能涉及100多个特朗普组织子公司1。特朗普之前曾表示该基金用于补偿遭司法部起诉的人员1，但在参议院的反对压力下被迫放弃1。
President Trump announced on Friday that an $1.8 billion anti-weaponization fund tied to an Internal Revenue Service settlement is "dead," even as he continued to defend the initiative.1 The declaration came after Republican Senators John Cornyn and Thom Tillis threatened to block the confirmation of Trump's attorney general nominee Todd Blanche unless the administration provided written assurances against establishing the fund.1
Trump had previously characterized the fund as compensation for individuals prosecuted by the Department of Justice, but faced significant opposition in the Senate over the proposal.1 According to administration officials, an agreement has been reached not to create the fund.1 However, Senator Tillis suggested lingering uncertainty, stating that "The President made it clear today that the so-called Anti Weaponization Fund is still alive."1 Both Cornyn and Tillis insisted on converting the administration's commitment into a formal written pledge.1 Cornyn also expressed concern that the fund could potentially involve more than one hundred Trump organization subsidiaries.1
