The still-unopened fund came from Trump's IRS settlement and would have let a DOJ commission pay people alleging political targeting.
Two bars: the $1.776 billion Anti-Weaponization Fund the Justice Department rescinded, and the $760 million Keepseagle farm-discrimination settlement it had cited as precedent.

The fund DOJ scrapped was more than twice its own cited precedent
The money was to come from the Treasury's Judgment Fund, a permanent appropriation, rather than a new line item voted by Congress.
The numbers
| Millions of dollars | Settlement size | Note |
|---|---|---|
| Anti-Weaponization Fund | $1,776 | proposed, then rescinded before it opened |
| Keepseagle settlement | $760 | farm discrimination; cited by DOJ as precedent |
