In this weekend's episode, three segments from this past week's Washington Journal. First, as tax season gets into high gear – a conversation with Nina Olson – who previously served as IRS Taxpayer Advocate.  We discuss DOGE's impact on the functioning of the Internal Revenue Service - and the privacy of taxpayer data. Then, Shai Akabas of the Bipartisan Policy Center discusses the debt limit so-called "X-date" as Congressional Republicans begin their budget reconciliation process.  Finally we talk with Benji Backer – founder of the American Conservation Coalition about his new push to make environmentalism NON-partisan.
