Tarabuster Tuesdays: Shamelessly Stealing the Treasury

Tarabuster Tuesdays with Tara Devlin. May 19, 2026

🎙️ On today's Tarabuster, Tara breaks down Trump's brand-new $1.776 BILLION "Anti-Weaponization Fund" — a taxpayer-funded slush pile rubber-stamped by acting AG (and Trump's former personal lawyer) Todd Blanche to pay off January 6 rioters and MAGA loyalists, with the recipients kept secret from the public. Treasury's top lawyer resigned in disgust within hours. If you ever wondered what looting the federal government in broad daylight looks like — congratulations, you're watching it.

Then: an ICE agent in Minneapolis gets criminally charged for shooting a Venezuelan immigrant through his own front door and lying about it — caught on city traffic cam. The only thing standing between a masked federal goon and total impunity? A local Democratic prosecutor with a spine.

Plus: House Republicans quietly smuggle FIVE anti-LGBTQ riders into the State Department funding bill, the Brennan Center sounds the alarm on the SAVE Act + Bannon's threat to have "ICE surround the polls" in November, and the LIRR unions hand the MTA a loss after the first rail strike in 32 years — without raising fares on riders.

And because the GOP closet just refuses to stay shut: yet another anti-gay Republican candidate — this time congressional hopeful Abraham Enriquez, who bragged from a church pulpit about killing a pro-LGBT student group in college — is now being accused by an alleged ex of being in a same-sex relationship at the exact same time. The story broke in a conservative outlet, no less. The "family values" party is really something.

Buckle up. It's a lot. As usual.
