During a recent Cabinet meeting, the former president expressed his regret over the status of the anti‑weaponization fund, declaring it dead while simultaneously wishing it were not.
He added that the fund’s demise had left many people feeling mistreated and abused, and he called for compensation for those affected.
In separate proceedings, a nominee named Blanche is scheduled to appear before the Senate Judiciary Committee on Tuesday to seek a vote on advancing the nomination to the full Senate.
The committee’s decision will determine whether Blanche’s confirmation proceeds to the broader Senate.
Officials from the White House and the Department of Justice have not provided additional comments on either matter.
