Addendum quietly slipped into widely criticized agreement creating a $1.7bn fund to compensate president’s allies

The addendum, signed by Todd Blanche, the acting attorney general, says the government is “forever barred” and “precluded” from examining the tax returns of Trump, his family, company and “related companies”. The agreement applies to anything filed before the agreement was reached.
