From MS NOW.

This week, lawyers for Donald Trump were engaged in talks with the IRS to try and resolve Trump’s $10 billion dollar lawsuit over the leak of his tax information during his first term. So, Trump’s lawyers are trying to reach a settlement with Trump’s IRS, overseen by Trump’s Treasury Secretary, to pay out millions of dollars if not more of taxpayer collected funds into Trump’s pocket. It’s not the only department overseen by Trump that he is looking to get a big payday from. Last fall Trump demanded the Justice Department pay him about 230-million dollars in compensation for the federal investigations into him, again looking to have his appointed DOJ officials – who also were his defense lawyers or his aides – sign off on such a payment.  No final announcement has been made yet on that one.
