  "account": "Donald Trump's candidate for US Attorney General, Todd Blanche, a former lawyer who cleared the president of several corruption charges in the past, will withdraw the controversial proposal to create a $1.8 billion fund to compensate those who felt persecuted by justice during Democratic President Joe Biden's term. Blanche has also pledged to limit tax immunity for the president and his family. The move is aimed at convincing Republican senators who are hesitant about his nomination as head of the Justice Department.",
  "summary": "Todd Blanche, candidato a fiscal general de Estados Unidos, ha retirado una propuesta para crear un fondo de 1.800 millones de dólares destinado a compensar a aquellos que se sintieran perseguidos por la justicia durante el mandato del presidente Joe Biden. Según CBS News, Blanche emitió una orden para rescindir formalmente el fondo.\n\nLa decisión busca convencer a los senadores republicanos reticentes a su nominación como secretario del Departamento de Justicia. El fondo se creó a partir de un acuerdo en mayo sobre la divulgación de los registros fiscales del presidente Trump. Axios informó que el acuerdo prometía una disculpa a Trump y sus hijos, y creó el fondo para individuos que reclamaban haber sufrido \"lawfare\" gubernamental.\n\nBlanche también se ha comprometido a limitar la inmunidad fiscal al presidente y su familia, según El Pais. La retirada de la propuesta ocurre antes de su audiencia de confirmación en el Senado.",
