The FBI are opening an investigation into the leaking of confidential tax records that revealed that billionaires paid almost no federal income tax, according to officials.
Charles Rettig, the commissioner of the Internal Revenue Service (IRS), told a Senate committee on Tuesday that the federal agency was investigating the leaked tax records.
It was followed by the IRS’s deputy commissioner, Douglas O’Donnell, who confirmed on Thursday that the US Treasury “made investigative referrals to their Office of Inspector General as well as the FBI”.

PO1 William "Chip" Nagel - If you make enough money, you don't pay any of it in taxes. The ones who are elected to fix that problem find it impossible even if they really do want to fix it. Idealism is nice but it won't get you re-elected normally.
