Not necessarily Inherited money is not taxable, so the issue is not that it has already been taxed. The IRS does not consider it taxable income. On the other hand, any interest earned on the inherited money during administration IS taxable. That money is considered income and the estate must pay the income tax on it or the estate distributes that interest to the beneficiaries prior to the close of the estate and the beneficiaries have to declare that as income.
money that has been inherited has already been assessed for inheritance tax based on the amount left in the deceased estate. Once you have inherited the money you are not liable for inheritance tax.
The amount of taxable inheritance depends on the entire estate. If the amount of the estate that the 60,000 was inherited from is over 2 million dollars then the income is taxable. If the estate was worth less then that then there are no taxes on the estate.

Yes, money or assets inherited from a will can be subject to taxation, but it depends on the specific laws of the jurisdiction. In the U.S., for example, beneficiaries typically do not pay income tax on inheritances, but the estate itself may be subject to estate taxes if its value exceeds certain thresholds. Additionally, any income generated from the inherited assets after the inheritance may be taxable. It's advisable to consult a tax professional or estate planner for specific guidance.
It sounds like what you received was your portion of an inheritance. If that is the situation, based on the facts given, there is no reportable tax occurrence. For inheritances, if what is inherited would have been taxable to the deceased, an IRA for example, then it's taxable to the heirs. Ans Money is fungible...that is indeterminable from each other. How your brother got the money to pay you is irrelevant. He didn't pay you....the estate did. The payment from the estate is not taxable to you...estate taxes are paid by the estate.
No but what you do with the money may be taxable.

None of of the borrowed money would be taxable income to you when you receive it.
