Rules
On May 18, 2026, the United States Department of Justice announced the creation of “The Anti-Weaponization Fund,” a program intended to compensate individuals or entities that were harmed by “weaponization of the criminal justice system” (see: https://www.justice.gov/opa/pr/justice-department-announces-anti-weaponization-fund). This market will resolve to “Yes” if the Department of Justice officially announces an Anti-Weaponization Fund payment to any individual in connection with damages, prosecution, detention, criminal charges or other legal proceedings related to the January 6, 2021 Capitol riot by July 31, 2026, 11:59 PM ET. Otherwise, this market will resolve to “No”. A consensus of credible reporting that such a payment has been made will also suffice for a “Yes” resolution. Issued apologies or other actions which do not include monetary payment will not qualify. The resolution sources for this market will be official information from the Department of Justice and a consensus of credible reporting.
