I mean I upvoted you even though your screenshot and title are way misleading. Maybe others are holding you to a higher standard.
You're trying to leave the impression that IRS cannot disclose information to ICE but the linked article says they absolutely can. The issue is there's a form ICE needs to complete and ICE was lazy in *how* they completed that form but that IRS still accepted it.

According to Trump, that's $10 billion a pop for wrongful disclosure. Ugh, now we'll never get healthcare.

A good trend.

...approximately.

Trump sued for $10 billion for an IRS leak. At that rate, this is $427 trillion dollars in potential lawsuits. I definitely shoulda been a lawyer.

And let me guess? The punishment was a strongly worded letter telling them not to do it again.

Well, since Rump says a single leak is worth $10 billion...

Nixon: "Wow... I never did THAT..."
Trump: "I'm the best grifter and US gov't corruption monger of all time!"

Hmmm, lots of downvotes (19 down at this point). I guess the red-hat-maga-maniacs simply can't handle all the winning.

Here's the thing: if they aren't punished for breaking it, then it's not a law - it's a guideline.

People left justic to the hand of the government, maybe its time to change that dont you think?

And if the only punishment is a fine, then it's simply legal for a price.

Do illegals pay taxes? No? Why did they share the info, and based on what selection......

What's the skin color and apprent income level of those people. There is a correlation

Technically...they might, and often do. You don't even have to set foot in the USA ever in your life to need to pay taxes to the USA.

(I have personally filed returns according to IRS rules for noncitizens who've never been to the USA who earned US income and owed taxes.)

Additionally, there (was) long standing precedence that the IRS doesnt share data, and paying taxes is good for immigration courts as undoc.

IRS will even give you an ITIN (not an SSN) to let you do so. To anyone. Paying taxes not using your own ITIN/SSN nukes your immigration app
