Trump’s IRS Deal Tests Constitutional Limits

Critics are raising serious legal questions about a Trump‑linked settlement that created a $1.7+ billion “anti‑weaponization” fund. The deal is highly unusual because it involves the federal government effectively settling with itself, after Trump sued the IRS while also overseeing the Justice Department handling the case. Legal experts and lawmakers are questioning whether the fund is constitutional, properly authorized by Congress, and free from conflicts of interest, with concerns it could direct taxpayer money to political allies or even people tied to past prosecutions.  Please Like, Comment and Follow 'Philip Teresi on KMJ' on all platforms: ---     Philip Teresi on KMJ is available on the KMJNOW app, Apple Podcasts, Spotify, YouTube or wherever else you listen to podcasts.  -- Philip Teresi on KMJ Weekdays 2-6 PM Pacific on News/Talk 580 AM & 105.9 FM KMJ  | Website  | Facebook | Instagram | X | Podcast | Amazon | - Everything KMJ KMJNOW App | Podcasts | Facebook | X | Instagram  See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
