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

Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent avoided questions during a Senate hearing about a Trump administration IRS settlement that granted audit immunity to President Trump, his family, and the Trump Organization. The settlement, part of a failed 'anti-weaponization' fund, was criticized as a 'scam against the taxpayer' by Senator Ron Wyden, with Bessent citing 'ongoing litigation' to deflect scrutiny.
