Trump Hosts IRS Commissioner in Oval Office

“President Trump held a ceremonial swearing-in on Friday in the Oval Office for Billy Long, the new commissioner of the Internal Revenue Service, in a sign of the unusually close relationship Mr. Trump has sought with the typically apolitical tax agency,” the New York Times reports.

“The swearing-in, experts said, was also unusual, as presidents have historically left the IRS at arm’s length.”
