Hunter Biden files lawsuit against IRS for privacy violations

Hunter Biden has filed a lawsuit against the IRS, accusing two whistleblowers of unlawfully disclosing his private taxpayer information and waging a campaign to harm him. The whistleblowers had made allegations of mishandling by government prosecutors in the investigation into Hunter Biden, which the Justice Department has denied. Hunter Biden's attorneys argue that the IRS failed to prevent the unauthorized disclosure of his confidential tax information, in violation of the Privacy Act. The lawsuit seeks damages for each unauthorized disclosure, a declaration of the IRS's unlawful disclosure, and access to any documents related to Hunter Biden's tax information.
