## Resource

Popok briefs on the second suit filed against the Trump $1.776 billion "settlement" fund, this time by a former Assistant US Attorney who was fired for prosecuting Jan6rs, an abortion rights group, a city, and a pro democracy public interest group, which turns the tables on Trump and his DOJ by claiming that their Constitutional rights have been violated by NOT being able to apply for reimbursement for being victimized by TRUMP's weaponization.
