Justice Department Bars Future Audits of Trump Tax Returns
The Department of Justice has amended a controversial agreement establishing a secretive $1.776 billion fund for presidential allies, adding a provision that permanently bars the IRS from auditing Donald Trump’s tax returns. This amendment, released after criticism of the fund’s loose control and lack of transparency, follows Trump’s dropping of a $10 billion lawsuit against the IRS. Despite claims of accountability, the fund’s leadership is appointed by and can be fired by the president, and the disclosure of recipients and reasons for awards remains unclear.
