Trump's IRS Settlement and Audit Ban
When I read about the IRS audit ban, my first thought was, yeah, Trump's greedy, it makes sense. But can this be a way for him to hide any Epstein related payments made or received by him, family members, or his companies?
"Tax pros described the agreement as breathtaking in scope. It nixes any audits, even of returns filed years before Trump became president. And it extends those protections to Trump’s sister, parent, “family or others filing jointly” as well as trusts, related companies, affiliates or subsidiaries.
It rules out examinations of any currently pending matters including returns filed before the agreement’s May 19 date. Democrats worry that an additional clause banning examinations arising from “lawfare and/or weaponization” could be interpreted to preclude any future audits as well and allow Trump to simply ignore the IRS from now on."
