In a move drawing widespread attention, a sitting president has filed a lawsuit against the Internal Revenue Service, setting off a political and legal firestorm. The complaint alleges improper conduct by the tax agency, escalating a dispute that now places the executive branch in direct conflict with a federal institution it oversees. Legal analysts say the case raises unusual questions about presidential authority and the independence of government agencies. The lawsuit is expected to face immediate procedural challenges and could take months to resolve. As the case unfolds, Americans are left to consider a broader issue: is it appropriate for a president to sue his own government?
Not only is this a WTF moment for Americans, it’s a WOW, REALLY, the Grifter in Chief, AGAIN?.
According to NBC News “President Donald Trump is suing the IRS and the Treasury Department for $10 billion, alleging they failed to take necessary steps to prevent a former IRS employee from improperly disclosing his tax returns, and those of his sons and his company, to news outlets.”
