Trump admin live updates: Judge blocks IRS sharing taxpayer data with ICE

A federal judge on Friday prohibited the IRS from sharing sensitive taxpayer data with U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement to aid its nationwide immigration crackdown.

U.S. District Judge Colleen Kollar-Kotelly issued an injunction that bars the IRS from passing along the sensitive information -- including home addresses -- to aid in civil immigration enforcement, concluding the policy was arbitrary and violates a law that protects taxpayer confidentiality.

“Plaintiffs’ members face an imminent risk that the confidential address information they have provided to the IRS will be impermissibly used by ICE for civil immigration enforcement,” Judge Kollar-Kotelly wrote.

A coalition of small businesses and unions sued to stop the controversial policy, which marked a significant departure from the IRS’s earlier approach of strict confidentiality. In April, the IRS agreed to begin sharing confidential information about taxpayer’s addresses, and by August, the IRS disclosed information about approximately 47,000 taxpayers.

The judge's order expands on an earlier decision that temporarily blocked the sharing of taxpayer data.

President Donald Trump, taking reporter questions in the Oval Office on Friday, spoke about the 28-point peace proposal his administration has drafted to bring an the Russia-Ukraine war.

The plan was presented to Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskky on Thursday, a U.S. official said.
"He'll have to like it. And if he doesn't like it, then, you know, they should just keep fighting, I guess," Trump said of Zelenskyy and the plan.

"We think we have a way of getting peace. He's going to have to approve it," Trump said.

President Donald Trump congratulated New York City Mayor-elect Zohran Mamdani as they met at the White House on Friday.

"We've just had a great meeting. A really good, very productive meeting. We have one thing in common. We want this city of ours that we love to do very well. And I wanted to congratulate the mayor," Trump said, adding Mamdani ran an "incredible race."

"The better he does, the happier I am," Trump added.

Mamdani also described the meeting as productive, and said their main focus was affordability.

"We spoke about rent. We spoke about groceries, we spoke about utilities. We spoke about the different ways in which people are being pushed out. And I appreciated the time with the president. I appreciated the conversation," Mamdani said.

President Donald Trump said in a radio interview that aired Friday that Thanksgiving would be an "appropriate time" for Ukraine to accept a new proposal to end the war with Russia.

"Well, we have, you know, I've had a lot of deadlines, but if things are working, well, you tend to extend the deadlines, but Thursday is it, we think an appropriate time," he said.

The peace deal that the White House is pressuring Ukraine to accept would require Ukraine to make significant concessions to end the war, including forcing Kyiv to give up additional territory in the east, limit the size of its military, and agree that it will never join NATO.

Despite the fears from European leaders that Russian President Vladimir Putin could feel emboldened to go after other European countries, Trump claimed that Putin is not looking to create more wars.

"They'll be stopped. He's not looking for more war," he said.
