Room 2501 of the Internal Revenue Service’s imposing headquarters on Constitution Avenue is to become the nerve center of Donald Trump’s new effort to investigate liberal funding groups.
It is home base for the IRS criminal investigation unit, known as IRS-CI, and its members are not ordinary tax agents. They carry guns and their predecessors succeeded where all other law enforcement agents failed – by taking down notorious mobster Al Capone over his finances.
Now, President Trump wants to give IRS-CI a new mission – to investigate left-wing funding groups, including those linked to billionaire investor and philanthropist George Soros, 95.
