Trump is reportedly still receiving tax audit exemptions, but the $1.8 billion fund plan is facing uncertainty.

According to sources familiar with the matter, US officials are continuing to enforce an agreement that prohibits the government from investigating President Donald Trump and his businesses' past tax filings, while the plan to establish an "anti-weaponization fund" has been put on hold. Bloomberg News previously reported that the Trump administration privately stated on Monday that it would suspend the $1.8 billion fund. The fund was originally planned to compensate victims who were allegedly treated with government "weaponization." Sources familiar with the matter, who requested anonymity because the discussions were not public, stated that another part of the agreement prohibits any audits and tax-related investigations into Trump, his family members, and his companies from proceeding before a settlement, and this part is not affected by the decision to put the fund on hold.
