- The Treasury Department's inspector general will probe why former FBI Director James Comeny and his deputy Andrew McCabe were audited by the IRS
- The probe comes a day after The New York Times reported that Comey and McCabe were subjected to rare IRS audits of their tax returns
- The newspaper said Comey was informed of the audit in 2019 and McCabe learned he was under scrutiny in 2021
- Trump repeatedly attacked both men over the FBI's Russia investigation that shadowed his presidency for years
- Treasury's spokesperson called it 'ludicrous and untrue' to suggest IRS officials targeted Comey and McCabe
