Trump's $10 billion IRS suit, likely to be decided by the DOJ. As in "Bondi."

Would Bondi really do that? Would she cut a check for $10 billion in U.S. TAXPAYER FUNDS for Trump?

5. I assume congress or members of it will file a lawsuit, I feel like this might be headed to the Supreme Court, again.

This issue should be settled by the Supreme Court as the separation of powers seems in jeopardy here. I am not sure the court is going to love the idea of a president who sues the executive branch and pays himself billions.
