A federal judge Monday said a controversial lawsuit brought by President Donald Trump against the IRS sought to ā€œmanipulate the judicial processā€ and that he acted in bad faith in bringing it.

US District Judge Kathleen Williams is ordering sanctions for the attorneys involved in the lawsuit, which led to an attempt to create the now-defunct $1.8 billion ā€œanti-weaponizationā€ fund for allies of the president. It was also used to justify a Trump administration order giving Trump and his businesses amnesty for any past tax issues.
