While Matt Taibbi Was Testifying Before Weaponization Of Government Committee, The IRS Knocked On His Door

 While Twitter Files journalist Matt Taibbi was in Washington, D.C. on March 9 testifying before the Select Subcommittee on the Weaponization of the Federal Government, his home in New Jersey had a curious visitor - an Internal Revenue Service agent.

According to the Wall Street Journal, whose editors have seen the document, Jordan sent a letter Monday to IRS Commissioner Daniel Werfel and Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen asking why Taibbi was the target of the unannounced and unusual home visit.

The taxman left a note instructing Mr. Taibbi to call the IRS four days later.

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.

Mr. Taibbi notes that in neither case was the issue "Monetary," and that the IRS owes him a "Considerable" sum.

The bigger question is when did the IRS start to dispatch agents for surprise house calls? Typically when the IRS challenges some part of a tax return, it sends a dunning letter.

Does the IRS really want something from Taibbi, or are they simply attempting to send a message? Conservatives have been the subject of political targeting by the IRS in the not-distant past, and apparently nothing has been done to clean the agency up.

Fauci Files Reveal Pfizer Helped Biden Rig 2020 Election

 Pfizer secretly colluded with Joe Biden's team to help him rig the 2020 election against Trump, according to new Fauci documents. In his new book, "On Call," Fauci admits that Albert Bourla, the CEO of Pfizer, called him the night after Biden was declared the winner of the election, to inform him of Pfizer's "Game-changing results" from the rigged mRNA trial. "On November 7, after the absentee ballots were counted, Joe Biden was declared the winner of the presidential election. It was the very next night that Albert Bourla, Pfizer's CEO, called me away from my neighbors' fire pit to inform me about the game-changing results from the Pfizer mRNA vaccine trial. I finally thought we had truly turned a corner in defeating this terrible disease." Today reports: In another interesting tidbit, Fauci discusses Trump's FDA Commissioner Stephen Hahn declaring that he would not go along with the Trump Administration's plan to roll out the vac...

  Multiple U.S. states governed by Republicans are withdrawing state funds from BlackRock's management, as they disapprove of the ESG investment policies of the world's top asset manager, the Financial Times reports.

The Biden-Harris White House Has An Iranian Spy Leaking U.S. Intelligence In It

 The question is, how did classified intelligence from the United States, showing Israeli military movements that suggest broader action against Iran, get to Tehran? The answer raises uncomfortable questions for the Biden-Harris White House, which has opposed Israel every step of the way in responding to Hamas, Hezbollah, and Iran. Defying Biden got Israel the entire leadership of Hezbollah and Hamas, with the ultimate threat still looming: Iran and its nuclear program. Operations against Iran are being assessed also because Iran has started firing ballistic missiles into Israel, targeting civilian centers across the country. If Israel is close to launching a broader offensive against Iran, leaking U.S. intelligence would be a way to both try and deter Israel and give more warning to Iran. In 2012, similar allegations were made against the Obama administration when U.S. intelligence leaks showed that Israel was working towards using "Azerbaijan as a base of operations in the event...
