Newly appointed Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth claimed his family was targeted by the outgoing Biden administration with an audit from the IRS.
“Of course the outgoing Biden IRS rushed an ‘audit’ of the incoming SecDef. Total sham,” Hegseth wrote on his official X account Monday, and included a photo of an IRS document addressed to he and his wife.
The document said the family’s federal income tax return showed they owed the government $33,558.16, which needed to be paid immediately to avoid further penalties.
“The party of ‘norms’ and ‘decency’ strikes again. We will never back down,” Hegseth said.
