Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent declined to confirm whether President Donald Trump and his family retain IRS audit immunity after the administration canceled a $1.776 billion compensation fund. Democratic lawmakers criticized Bessent for avoiding the issue during a Senate Finance Committee hearing, while a federal judge reopened Trump’s lawsuit against the IRS to investigate claims of abandoned scrutiny of the settlement.
