Treasury’s Bessent mum on Trump’s IRS immunity deal

Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent refused to address questions about the Trump administration's potential tax enforcement immunity deal on Capitol Hill, following comments from acting Attorney General Todd Blanche that an "anti-weaponization" fund was no longer in the cards. This silence comes amid ongoing scrutiny over the Trump Organization's tax practices and the implications of any potential immunity from IRS enforcement actions. Bessent's evasiveness underscores the broader debate over accountability and transparency in government dealings, highlighting the stakes for both current and future tax enforcement efforts.
