Murdoch Paper Pleads With Republicans to Kill One of Trump’s ‘Worst’ Ideas

The Wall Street Journal’s Editorial Board is urging Republicans to “kill” President Donald Trump’s so-called “Anti-Weaponization Fund” once and for all.

The Trump administration announced Monday it was abandoning the slush fund after it was temporarily blocked by a federal judge—but did so with the caveat that it was only “dead for now.”

“Mr. Trump has no shortage of wild ideas, but the $1.776 billion retribution fund is one of his worst,” the Journal’s editorial reads. “The best outcome now would be for Republicans in Congress to unite to kill it.”
