## Resource

The president is standing by his nearly $1.8 billion "anti-weaponization fund," which even the administration admits could give money to violent January 6th offenders. Plus, more on the president's endorsement of Republican challenger Ken Paxton over the party’s incumbent Senator John Cornyn in Tuesday's Texas primary runoff. A move that some worry could backfire in November, perhaps even turning the seat and the Senate blue. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices
