Sending a Message: IRS Agent Showed Up at Home of 'Twitter Files' Journalist as He Testified to Congress

The IRS, not known for engaging in house calls, paid a visit to the home of Twitter Files journalist Matt Taibbi while he was giving testimony to Congress about the government’s efforts to control online discourse.

The IRS agent showed up at Taibbi’s house on March 9, the day of the journalist’s high-profile testimony before the House Committee on the Weaponization of the Federal Government. Finding Taibbi not at home, the agent affixed a letter to the journalist’s door instructing him to call him.
