Two police officers involved in responding to the January 6, 2021 Capitol attack have filed a lawsuit against Donald Trump, seeking to prevent the creation of a fund they allege would be used to finance his radicalized supporters. The officers claim the proposed fund would serve to support individuals who participated in the violent storming of the U.S. Capitol building. The lawsuit represents the latest legal challenge against the former president related to the events of January 6, when Trump supporters breached the Capitol in an attempt to overturn the 2020 election results, resulting in multiple deaths and injuries to law enforcement officers.
