2021年1月6日保卫美国国会大厦的执法人员于本周三起诉特朗普政府，要求阻止这项新设立的18亿美元基金落地，该基金旨在为那些称自己遭到前政府不公平调查的唐纳德·特朗普总统的盟友提供资助。
前美国国会警察局警员哈里·邓恩和现任华盛顿特区大都会警察局警员丹尼尔·霍奇斯在联邦法院提起诉讼，称这项新基金违反了美国宪法和联邦法律。
两人表示，该基金可能被用于向参与袭击的人员支付款项，并为美国国内各类准军事组织提供资金。
“如果允许该基金开始支付款项，它将直接为骚乱者、准军事组织及其支持者的暴力行动提供资金，这些人在当日威胁了原告的生命，并且至今仍在构成威胁，”邓恩和霍奇斯的律师在这份29页的诉讼文件中写道。
“像‘骄傲男孩’这样的民兵组织将利用该基金的资金武装自己。该基金将为他们过去的暴力行为提供合法背书，”诉讼文件中称。
“最令人不寒而栗的是，该基金将向过去和未来所有试图袭击邓恩和霍奇斯的暴力行凶者传递一个信号：他们不必担心被起诉；恰恰相反，他们有望获得奖励，”诉讼文件写道。“邓恩和霍奇斯在1月6日没有退缩。相反，他们坚守阵地，捍卫民主和法治。他们提起本案，就是为了再次捍卫这一原则。”
该诉讼请求华盛顿特区的一名联邦法官宣布政府设立该基金的决定非法，并发布禁令阻止官员采取任何实施该基金的措施，同时要求退还所有已从该基金支付的款项。
两人指控，这项新基金违反了宪法第十四修正案的一项条款，该条款禁止政府为“协助对美国发动叛乱或暴动所产生的债务”提供支付。他们还称，官员们违反了联邦规则制定法律，该基金源自特朗普今年早些时候以个人身份对美国国税局提起的100亿美元诉讼。
这项《行政程序法》允许个人对部分政府决策提出质疑。邓恩和霍奇斯的律师表示，官员们违反了另一项联邦法律条款，该条款规定政府只能在总检察长同意此类支付“符合美国国家利益”后才能和解诉讼。
“为和解‘特朗普诉美国国税局’一案而向‘反武器化基金’支付17.76亿美元，显然不符合‘美国国家利益’，”他们在诉讼文件中写道。“相反，这是总统策划的对纳税人资金的挪用，目的是奖励他的盟友和以他的名义实施暴力的骚乱者。”
就在该案提起的前一天，曾担任特朗普私人律师的代理司法部长托德·布兰奇在参议院拨款委员会作证时，拒绝排除1月6日袭击执法人员的人是否有资格获得赔偿的可能性。
“我肯定会鼓励委员会成员在确定谁应该获得赔偿时考虑所有因素，”布兰奇说，他指的是一个由五人组成的委员会，该委员会将审核希望从该基金获得赔偿的人员提交的索赔申请。
虽然总检察长办公室将任命这五名成员，但特朗普拥有最终决定权，可随时解雇他们。
“但针对袭击警察的定罪者这一具体问题呢？”民主党参议员杰夫·默克利问道。“你认为他们在因暴力袭击警察被定罪后，应该获得赔偿吗？”
“我的看法并不重要，参议员，”布兰奇说。
副总统J·D·万斯周二也拒绝排除袭击警察的人可能从该基金获得资金的可能性。
“我们确实有一些被指控袭击执法人员的人，”万斯在白宫对记者说。“这并不意味着我们会完全无视他们提出的部分索赔。”

Police officers who defended US Capitol on January 6 sue to stop Trump’s ‘anti-weaponization’ fund
2026-05-20T14:25:16.857Z / CNN
Two police officers who defended the US Capitol on January 6, 2021, filed a lawsuit challenging a newly created $1.8 billion Trump “anti-weaponization” fund.
The officers argue the fund violates constitutional provisions and federal law by potentially compensating individuals who participated in the Capitol riot.
Top administration officials recently declined to rule out payments to those convicted of assaulting law enforcement officers on January 6.
AI-generated summary was reviewed by a CNN editor.
Law enforcement officers who protected the US Capitol on January 6, 2021, sued the Trump administration on Wednesday to block implementation of a newly created $1.8 billion fund for allies of President Donald Trump who say they were unfairly investigated by previous administrations.
The lawsuit brought in federal court by Harry Dunn, a former member of the US Capitol Police, and Daniel Hodges, a current member of the Washington, DC, Metropolitan Police Department, claims that the new fund runs afoul of the US Constitution and federal law.
The men say the fund will potentially be used to pay individuals who participated in the attack and finance various paramilitary organizations in the country.
“If allowed to begin making payments, the fund will directly finance the violent operations of rioters, paramilitaries, and their supporters who threatened plaintiffs’ lives that day, and continue to do so,” lawyers for Dunn and Hodges wrote in the 29-page suit.
“Militias like the Proud Boys will use money from the fund to arm and equip themselves. The fund will grant their pasts acts of violence legal imprimatur,” the lawsuit claims.
“And, most chillingly, the fund will signal to past and potential future perpetrators of violence against Dunn and Hodges that they need not fear prosecution; to the contrary, they should expect to be rewarded,” the lawsuit reads. “Dunn and Hodges did not back down on January 6. Instead, they held the line to defend democracy and the rule of law. They bring this case to do so once again.”
The lawsuit asks a federal judge in DC to declare the administration’s decision to set up the fund is unlawful and for an order blocking officials from taking steps to implement it and requiring any payments already made from it to be reversed.
The new fund, the men allege, violates a provision of the 14th Amendment that bars the government from paying debts “incurred in aid of insurrection or rebellion against the United States.” They also say that officials violated federal rulemaking laws by creating the fund, which stemmed from a $10 billion lawsuit Trump, in his individual capacity, brought against the Internal Revenue Service earlier this year.
That law, the Administrative Procedure Act, allows individuals to challenge some government decision-making. Lawyers for Dunn and Hodges say that officials violated it by not following a different provision of federal law that says the government can only settle lawsuits after the attorney general agrees that such payment “is in the interest of the United States.”
“The payment of $1.776 billion into the Anti-Weaponization Fund to settle Trump v. IRS was patently not ‘in the interest of the United States,’” they wrote in the lawsuit. “Rather, it was a misappropriation of taxpayer funds orchestrated by the President to reward his allies and the rioters who committed violence in his name.”
The case comes a day after acting Attorney General Todd Blanche, who was once Trump’s personal attorney, in testimony to a Senate appropriations panel, declined to rule out the possibility whether those who assaulted law enforcement officers on January 6 would be eligible for a payout.
“I will definitely encourage the commissioners to take everything into account when determining who should get compensation,” Blanche said, referring to a five-member commission that will review claims submitted by people looking to be paid out of the fund.
While the attorney general’s office would appoint the five members, Trump would have the ultimate power, being allowed to fire them at any time.
“But why not this specific issue of (being) convicted of violent acts against police officers?” Democratic Sen. Jeff Merkley asked. “You feel they should get compensation after being convicted of violent acts?”
“My feelings don’t matter, senator,” Blanche said.
Vice President JD Vance on Tuesday also declined to rule out the idea that those who assaulted police officers could get money from the fund.
“We do have people who were accused of attacking law enforcement officers,” Vance told reporters at the White House. “That doesn’t mean that we’re going to completely ignore some of the claims that they’re going to make.”
