Jan. 6 Defendants
Americans who were charged in connection with events at the Capitol on January 6, 2021 — including those whose cases were dismissed or who received presidential pardons.
A $1.776 billion federal fund has been established to compensate Americans targeted by the previous administration's weaponized prosecutions — including patriots impacted by the events of January 6, 2021. We're here to help you stay informed and ready to file when the doors open.
Cut through the noise. Here is what has been publicly reported about the federal compensation fund, in plain English.
In May 2026, the Trump administration established a roughly $1.8 billion "Anti-Weaponization" fund within the Department of Justice. The fund — symbolically capped at $1.776 billion — is designated to compensate Americans who claim they were targeted by previous administrations through prosecutorial overreach.
The fund was capitalized in part by the settlement of a lawsuit filed against the IRS over the leak of the President's tax returns. Reports indicate it is geared toward financial payouts, potentially reaching millions of dollars per individual, for those who qualify — including individuals connected to the events of January 6, 2021 who were subsequently pardoned.
No formal claims process has yet opened to the public. When it does, applicants will likely be required to document the nature of their prosecution, financial harm, and pardon or dismissal status. We are tracking developments daily so the patriots who deserve relief don't miss their window.
These are broad categories drawn from public reporting. They are not a substitute for official DOJ guidance, and no determination can be made until the formal claims process opens.
Americans who were charged in connection with events at the Capitol on January 6, 2021 — including those whose cases were dismissed or who received presidential pardons.
Individuals who received a full or partial pardon from President Trump tied to politically motivated federal prosecutions.
Immediate family members — spouses, parents, and children — who suffered financial or emotional harm as a result of a relative's prosecution.
Patriots who lost employment, businesses, retirement savings, or homes as a direct consequence of a politically motivated case.
Individuals who were subject to audits, leaks, surveillance, or investigations that reports now suggest were politically motivated.
If you believe you were targeted under prior administrations and aren't sure where you fit — register anyway. Eligibility criteria are still being finalized.
