The ex-FBI director and his former deputy were targeted for in-depth audits during Donald Trump’s presidency.
The suspiciously timed audits of two of Donald Trump’s political foes during his presidency were just bad luck, the Treasury Inspector General for Tax Administration has determined after reviewing the agency’s audit process.
first revealed that ex-FBI director James Comey and his former deputy Andrew McCabe, who often drew Trump’s ire, were subjected to extremely in-depth audits in 2017 and 2019, respectively. Less than 10,000 people are selected each year for such audits. However, the watchdog agency said they didn’t identify any misconduct, and there was no malicious code used in the program that automatically selects taxpayers to be audited.
