We have seen for some time how off-the-rails the FBI has become, a danger to a free society. More and more evidence now shows it’s not just the FBI. Every federal employee with a badge and gun seems to think he’s a law unto himself. This week the spotlight is on the IRS, and the Congress has to step up and rein the agency in.
While Matt Taibbi was testifying before Congress on the administration’s extensive censoring of social media content, the IRS appeared at his door, ostensibly to question him about his taxes, but obviously to intimidate him for showing up government censorship.
Mr. Taibbi has told Mr. Jordan’s committee that an IRS agent showed up at his personal residence in New Jersey on March 9. That happens to be the same day Mr. Taibbi testified before the Select Subcommittee on the Weaponization of the Federal Government about what he learned about Twitter. The taxman left a note instructing Mr. Taibbi to call the IRS four days later. Mr. Taibbi was told in a call with the agent that both his 2018 and 2021 tax returns had been rejected owing to concerns over identity theft.
Mr. Taibbi has provided the committee with documentation showing his 2018 return had been electronically accepted, and he says the IRS never notified him or his accountants of a problem after he filed that 2018 return more than four-and-a-half years ago.
He says the IRS initially rejected his 2021 return, which he later refiled, and it was rejected again -- even though Mr. Taibbi says his accountants refiled it with an IRS-provided pin number. Mr. Taibbi notes that in neither case was the issue “monetary,” and that the IRS owes him a “considerable” sum.

The left sure does love the use of government force.

As has the atf, cia, nsa etc etc. Anyone see a trend? Maybe this trend is too subtle for some useful idiots to see.
Find the “agent”, name, phone, address, everything. Put the information out there.
The IRS needs to fear the people, for once.
Bet the IRS won’t be showing up at the Harkles’ house any time soon...
Interestingly and significantly, the Montana gun shop raid was conducted by a combined ATF and IRS team.
Now we know what the 87K new IRS agents are for. They are going to make a case against patriots no matter how they have to do it.
Find the man, find the crime.
When I was a kid the government didn’t do things like this. When I was a teen they got fired for doing this.
Now, they get promoted.
It’s the DOJ, FBI, IRS, DHS, CIA, FEDERAL COURTS, ATF just to name a few
CONGRESS SHOULD FIND OUT HIS NAME!!
Our ENTIRE GOVT. is TOTALLY CORRUPT!!
Population control by the Gov’t. also known as Gestapo.
Lois Lerner still laughing.
.
The IRS does this all the time.
In the early 1980’s the IRS worked with the Organized Crime Task Force of the FBI to gather information. They audited Roma Foods out of New Jersey and all of their pizza shop customers on the east coast.
It’s the DOJ’s way of fishing for information.
Don’t forget that Senator Manchin made this possible.
Not to go after "the rich." But to go after anyone -- rich or middle class - who the Deep States wants destroyed.
The oligarchs are safe from the IRS. They control the IRS. But any billionaire who leaves the reservation -- Musk, Trump -- is courting trouble.
When the entire Executive branch apparatus has become corrupt, and lawless institutions begin political purges, where can the country turn?
The Congress are nearly just as corrupt, with a few loud-mouthed eunuchs who try to sound like they’ll “do something”. The “something” is never more than talk.
Idiots, yes. But also propagandists. One of those alphabet hired social media influencers was here yesterday poo poohing all this stuff saying there's no way we are chest deep in the sovietization of America. Their are several, as you many have noticed and they're easy to spot.
The far left’s weaponized Nazi tax collectors. We need to talk the Dung Beetle Party turd rollers about trying a little common sense vote casting. You can’t continue voting for far-lefties and expect them to take their jack boots off your throat.
