Drawing from multiple news sources, President Trump, along with his sons and the Trump Organization, is suing the IRS and Treasury Department for at least $10 billion, alleging that their negligence led to the unlawful leaking of his tax returns to media outlets in 2020 by an IRS contractor, Charles Littlejohn, who was sentenced to five years in prison for the crime.
