华盛顿,6月1日(路透社)——据Axios周一报道,美国总统唐纳德·特朗普计划取消其原本将惠及政治盟友的18亿美元“反政治迫害”基金,此前该计划遭到包括部分共和党同僚在内的猛烈批评。
“该计划目前已告吹,”Axios援引的两名资深政府官员中的一人说道。

该基金计划用纳税人的资金补偿遭受政治“迫害”的受害者,其资金源自特朗普政府司法部与美国国税局的一项法律和解协议,用以解决一起前所未有的诉讼。在该诉讼中,特朗普曾因他人据称不当处理其税务记录而索赔100亿美元。
这一宣布引发了批评声浪,议员们担忧特朗普可能存在利益自我交易,同时也担心这笔资金可能会支付给2021年1月6日冲击美国国会大厦并袭击警察的暴力特朗普支持者。
上周五,一名联邦法官临时阻止了政府推进该基金的计划。

WASHINGTON, June 1 (Reuters) – U.S. President Donald Trump plans to drop his $1.8 billion “anti-weaponization” fund that would have benefited political allies, Axios reported on Monday, after a firestorm of criticism including from some of his fellow Republicans.
“It’s dead for now,” said one of two senior administration officials cited by Axios.

The fund, which would compensate victims of political “weaponization” with taxpayer money, emerged from a legal settlement between Trump’s Justice Department and the Internal Revenue Service to resolve an unprecedented lawsuit in which the president had sought $10 billion over the alleged mishandling of his tax records.
The announcement set off criticism, with lawmakers raising concerns about potential self-dealing by Trump, and the prospect of payouts to violent Trump supporters who stormed the U.S. Capitol and assaulted police on January 6, 2021.
On Friday, a federal judge temporarily blocked the administration from moving forward with the fund.
