President Donald Trump on Thursday sued the Internal Revenue Service and Treasury Department for $10 billion over the disclosure of his tax returns to the media in 2019 and 2020. Thursday’s lawsuit puts Trump in the unusual position of suing government agencies that are part of the Executive Branch, which he leads. Other plaintiffs include Donald Trump Jr., Eric Trump and the Trump Organization. He sued the New York Times and book publisher Penguin Random House for $15 billion over articles and a book he said were intended to undermine his election prospects in 2024. Prosecutors charged Littlejohn in September 2023 with leaking tax records of Trump and thousands of other wealthy Americans to the media, saying he was motivated by a political agenda.
