Trump confirms DOGE will audit IRS

On Thursday, President Donald Trump confirmed that the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) would be auditing the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) after it was reported that DOGE staffers were going into the headquarters of the agency earlier this week.

During a press conference in the Oval Office, Trump was asked about their presence at the IRS building and if the agency would be closed. Trump responded, saying that they would be "looked at" just like other agencies in the federal government.

"I don't expect it," Trump said, referring to the claim that the IRS would close. “I think that the Internal Revenue Service is going to be looked at just like everybody else. Just about everybody’s going to be looked at."

President Trump confirms the rumors that DOGE will be auditing the IRS for corruption and waste.

"The IRS will be looked at like everybody else. Just about everybody will be looked at. They're doing a helluva job... I call it the force of super geniuses."
