episode Trump administration abandons $1.8 billion fund to compensate supporters cover

Beskrivelse

The eyes of the world are on the US' negotiations with Iran to end its war in the Middle East, as a tenuous ceasefire continues to hold and demands to reopen the Strait of Hormuz are repeated. But there are also developments happening within the United States as the crucial midterm elections move closer. Those developments include the apparent dropping of plans to establish a compensation fund for Trump allies. The about-face is a setback for one of Trump's most divisive second-term initiatives, which had drawn criticism from Democrats, legal experts and numerous Republicans in Congress.
