DOJ Has No Record of Trump’s Shady IRS Settlement
In response to an inquiry regarding responsive records, the Department of Justice’s Civil Division has stated that it is not aware of any such documents pertinent to the case. This case involves a $10 billion lawsuit filed by Donald Trump, his sons, and the Trump Organization against the IRS over the leak of their tax returns. A recent settlement established a $1.776 billion fund intended to aid those believing they were unfairly prosecuted for political reasons and also prohibits the IRS from auditing the Trump family or their businesses in the future.
