    Democrats asked a court to block a reported settlement between the IRS and President Donald Trump over a leak of his tax information during his first term, saying it lacks the bare minimum required to file a lawsuit: two opposing parties.

    I guess the question we’re testing here is “can the president use the judicial branch as a key to treat other federal agencies as personal piggy banks?”. Incredibly, this is actually up for discussion.
