Some individuals involved in the January 6 Capitol riots are now attempting to obtain financial compensation from the federal government. This move follows the Justice Department’s decision to halt its plans for the controversial anti-weaponization fund.
The potential compensation sought amounts to millions of dollars. The route being pursued by these individuals marks a new phase in the legal and financial repercussions stemming from the events of January 6.
