Judge rejects watchdog’s bid to block Trump administration’s $1.8 billion anti-weaponization fund

A federal judge ruled against a watchdog’s request to stop a new fund. The fund was created by the Trump administration. It totals $1.8 billion. The program is described as an “anti‑weaponization” initiative. The watchdog argued the fund violated certain regulations. The court found no legal basis to block the funding. The decision leaves the money available for its intended purpose. The outcome may affect future oversight of similar programs.
