Stacey Young, executive director and founder of Justice Connection, today issued the following statement after the Justice Department announced the settlement of a frivolous lawsuit by Donald Trump against the IRS and the creation of an almost $1.8 billion “Anti-Weaponization Fund”:
“This case is a clear example of why Justice Department lawyers take an oath to serve the Constitution, not the White House. This department’s leadership is intent on abusing its power to curry favor with the President and execute his retribution campaign. The ‘Anti-Weaponization Fund’ fits a pattern of corruption that is eroding DOJ’s integrity and Americans’ faith in the rule of law.”
