US government agrees to drop tax claims against Trump in broadening of IRS lawsuit settlement
· KRGV (NBC 5)
The U.S. government has agreed to permanently drop tax claims against President Donald Trump as part of a settlement related to his $10 billion lawsuit against the IRS over leaked tax returns. This settlement prevents the government from examining or prosecuting Trump and his family regarding current tax issues. Additionally, a new fund of $1.776 billion has been established to compensate individuals who believe they were unfairly targeted for prosecution, a move criticized by Democrats and some Republicans as potentially corrupt. Trump will receive a formal apology but no monetary compensation from the settlement, which was dismissed by a judge for lack of transparency.
