Welcome to the Eric Erickson Show podcast, Our Three.

Greetings and welcome. It is Eric Erickson here across America.

Glad to have you with me. The number is 8779773-725 if you want to be on the

program I am happy to have you now I have kept my eye out on this story for a while to

see if something happens and something finally has.

If you will recall, ProPublica, the New York Times and others have run stories in the last year or so about the taxes of millionaires, billionaires, and of Donald Trump as well.

Federal prosecutors filed charges late Friday against a contractor who worked for the IRS,

who stole the tax returns of Donald Trump, it appears, and possibly leaked others.

The man, 38-year-old Charles Edward Littlejohn, worked for the IRS from 2018 to 2020.

During his contract, he allegedly stole tax returns and return information associated with public individual A.

Sources say that that would be Donald Trump.

In addition, he is accused of stealing IRS information on thousands of the nation's wealthiest people,

including returns and return information

dating back more than 15 years and then sent it to another news organization that would be

the New York Times and ProPublica. He's charged with one count of unauthorized disclosure of tax returns and return information and

faces up to five years in prison if convicted. ProPublica claims it doesn't know the identity of the

people who provided it information. By the way, so that's one count. It's tied now to his leaking

Donald Trump's information.

They're going to investigate further.

The report came out and said, well, he's only being charged with one count for all of this.

Actually, it looks like that they accuse him of taking Donald Trump's information,

but they're investigating him still for all these others and we'll charge him with more.
