Nixon Charged 5 Percent Penalty on Back Taxes
The Baltimore Sun reports IRS assessed a 5 percent negligence penalty on Nixon alongside $432,787 in back taxes plus interest totaling $467,000. Officials say the penalty amount could not be determined, and the White House would not confirm its involvement. IRS notes penalties reflect negligence or disregard of rules, not fraud, while Nixon attributes errors to his lawyers or accountants. The AP notes unrelated errors in audits of White House friends and enemies, denied as politically charged, with officials citing no evidence of political interference.
