Trump Sues US Department of Justice for $230 Million: Claims Previous Investigation Caused Significant Harm
BlockBeats News, October 22nd, according to The New York Times, U.S. President Trump has requested the Department of Justice to pay up to $230 million in compensation for the criminal investigations he faced before and after his first term in the White House. Trump said to reporters at the White House later on Tuesday: "As far as litigation is concerned... yes, they may owe me a lot of money. Any decision by the Department of Justice to pay compensation must be approved by me, and it's very strange for me to decide how much to pay myself. In other words, have you ever had a situation where you have to decide how much to compensate yourself? I have indeed suffered tremendous harm, and any compensation I receive will be donated to charity."
Trump has already filed complaints related to the Department of Justice's investigations through "administrative tort claims process, which is typically a precursor to a lawsuit." One claim, submitted in 2023, seeks compensation from the Department of Justice for the investigation into Russian interference in the 2016 presidential election and potential ties to Trump's campaign. Another accusation, filed in mid-2024, alleges that the FBI's search of his Mar-a-Lago estate and residence in 2022 violated Trump's rights — the search was part of the investigation into his retention of government secrets after the end of his first term. Trump hinted at these claims last week during an Oval Office event, standing alongside Attorney General Pam Bondi and FBI Director Kash Patel.
