Claim 2: “The Trump administration announced Monday the creation of a nearly $1.8 billion fund to compensate allies of the Republican president who believe they have been unjustly investigated and prosecuted”
MISLEADING
The claim states the fund is to compensate 'allies' who were 'unjustly investigated and prosecuted'. However, the evidence from AP News/Web Search specifies the $1.7B fund is related to a settlement regarding the IRS unlawfully allowing a contractor to leak tax returns. The claim generalizes the purpose of the fund in a deceptive manner.
