President Donald Trumps latest threat against his political opposition was doused with the reality that he could be violating federal law for publicly airing his retaliatory request, according to American Immigration Council senior fellow Aaron Reichlin-Melnick.
Trump on Thursday openly floated the possibility of the IRS changing the tax status of organizations that disagree with his administrations MAGA policies, including immigration and environmental rights organizations.
He then called out a Washington D.C.-based watchdog group by name while taking questions from reporters in the Oval Office Thursday afternoon.
I have a group name CREW, ever hear of it? Its supposed to be a charitable organization, the only charity they had is going after Donald Trump. So were looking into that, were looking into a lot of things.

I'm confident the courts will stop him. He is just now finding out how he screwed himself over by pulling this Abregas Garcia atrocity.
