Federal Judge Bars Trump From Immediately Setting Up $1.8 Billion Fund
Key Points
The Federal District Court for the Eastern District of Virginia has barred former President Donald Trump from immediately setting up a $1.8 billion fund, as ordered by the court in a case brought by a group of people who claim they have faced partisan attacks by the Trump administration and expect to be excluded from accessing the fund. The court has not yet ruled on the merits of the case, but the order prevents Trump from setting up the fund until the court has made a decision.
The order came from the Federal District Court for the Eastern District of Virginia, in Alexandria, in a case brought by a group of people who say they have faced partisan attacks by the Trump administration but expect to be excluded from accessing the fund.
