A presidential slush fund has been reported, with some outlets indicating it may be used to benefit certain groups or shield the president's family and businesses from investigation. There are efforts underway to address the issue, including the introduction of legislation such as the SLUSH FUND Act and the Drain the Slush Fund Act. A federal judge has also taken action, with one report stating that the judge has nullified the president's entire January 6 slush fund, while another indicates a temporary halt to a $1.8 billion slush fund.
