Trump's $10B lawsuit against IRS

Trump's $10B lawsuit against IRS

Trump has asked a federal judge to pause the case for 90 days while the two sides work toward a potential settlement.

Critics and ethics experts have raised concerns that Trump could arrange a favorable resolution through a Justice Department that is now under his control.

The lawsuit also names his adult sons and the Trump Organization as plaintiffs.

The outcome of the negotiations could have significant implications for the privacy of presidential tax information and the accountability of federal contractors.
