US Justice Department Grants Trump and His Family Permanent Immunity Regarding Tax Returns

The US Department of Justice has issued a decision granting President Donald Trump and his family members permanent immunity, preventing any future legal pursuits related to their past tax returns. The settlement document includes a prohibition on tax authorities from reopening or reviewing any financial files previously submitted by Trump. This decision follows a settlement agreement under which Trump waived a lawsuit demanding billions of dollars in damages over the leak of his tax data; the agreement also included the establishment of a fund to compensate those affected by the politicization of the case.
