The Justice Department moved Monday to dismiss a class action lawsuit brought by Jan. 6 defendants under the Federal Tort Claims Act, arguing that the claims brought by the rioters are prohibited because they were filed after the statute of limitations had expired. "All the claims in the Complaint are 'forever barred' due to the failure to timely file the administrative claim with the agency," the Justice Department said in its filing. The Justice Department said that the plaintiffs submitted forms that "were only partially completed" and said some lacked signatures and supporting documentation. The Justice Department noted that the plaintiffs alleged "that they were injured by the police actions that occurred on January 6, 2021." A former Justice Department lawyer said Blanche's unilateral rescission of the "anti-weaponization" fund has no legal effect and doesn't prevent the fund from being revived in the future.
