The US Department of Justice announced granting permanent immunity to President Donald Trump and his family members from any prosecution or inspection of their previous tax returns by the Internal Revenue Service, the body responsible for tax collection. Acting Attorney General Todd signed the document, which was published on Tuesday,

It stated that the US government will not be able to review Trump's financial returns submitted before last Monday, or any related issues that could have been addressed.

This development comes following a settlement agreement reached by Trump with the Internal Revenue Service on Monday, under which he withdrew his lawsuit against the agency, in which he was demanding compensation of up to $10 billion due to the leak of his tax returns. Under the settlement, the Department of Justice established a fund of $1.8 billion to compensate those affected by what it described as "politicization," which raised questions among a number of members of Congress.
