Internal Revenue Service leadership underwent another shuffle on Friday as President Donald Trump replaced acting commissioner Gary Shapley just days after his appointment, reportedly following a behind-the-scenes power struggle between White House officials.
Shapley, a longtime IRS agent celebrated by conservatives for his criticisms of the Hunter Biden investigation, was installed earlier this week with backing from Elon Musk's Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE), but apparently without the approval of Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent.
