Rep. Mike Levin (D-Calif.) revealed Friday that House Republicans on the Appropriations Committee voted to make themselves eligible to collect from President Donald Trump’s $1.8 billion January 6th slush fund, triggering immediate outrage online.<\/p>\n

Levin took to X to announce that he had introduced an amendment to block members of Congress, the president, and the vice president from collecting any money from the controversial fund unless a court specifically orders it. Every Republican on the committee voted against his amendment, according to his video.<\/p>\n

“Every Republican present in the House Appropriations Committee last night voted to make THEMSELVES eligible to collect from Trump’s $1.8 billion January 6th slush fund. I am not making this up,” Levin wrote in the caption.<\/p>\n

The California Democrat said the vote allows MAGA Republicans in Congress, along with Trump and Vice President JD Vance, to position themselves as victims of “government weaponization” and collect settlement funds out of the pool Trump created.<\/p>\n

“That is exactly the kind of self-dealing corruption the American people are sick of,” Levin wrote.<\/p>\n

The reaction was immediate. Former GOP insider Tara Setmayer reposted Levin’s thread with a single line.<\/p>\n

“Republicans in Congress did WHAT???” Setmayer wrote.<\/p>\n

Media producer Roy Bellamy offered a different take.<\/p>\n

“I hope this ends up like a class action suit and everyone gets 35 cents,” Bellamy wrote.<\/p>\n
