Gary Shapley, whom President Donald Trump named acting commissioner of the Internal Revenue Service earlier this week, will no longer serve in the role, according to a White House official and a source briefed on the matter. Michael Faulkender, the deputy secretary of the Treasury, will be taking on the position, the sources said. The New York Times first reported Shapley’s ouster and his replacement. CNN has requested comment from the IRS and its parent agency, the Treasury Department. The move ends a whiplash week at the IRS. Trump signed the paperwork appointing Shapley on Tuesday, triggering panic among some career civil servants. The outgoing acting commissioner, Melanie Krause, announced Shapley’s elevation in an agency-wide email on Wednesday, according to three sources. “I’ve made the decision to step down as acting commissioner and today is my last day in the office before I transition into a leave status,” Krause wrote. “I also have the privilege of sharing that President Trump has appointed Gary Shapley as the next acting commissioner.”
