Judge questions standing in Trump’s $10B IRS lawsuit
TL;DR Summary
A federal judge signaled potential trouble for Trump’s $10 billion lawsuit against the IRS over leaked tax returns, ordering briefing and a May 27 hearing to decide whether a sitting president can sue the government he oversees, given concerns the case may not meet the Constitution’s case-or-controversy requirement and the unitary-executive theory; Trump, his sons, and a family company are plaintiffs, with the parties facing questions about adverseness and authority.
