“Twitter Files” journalist Matt Taibbi became the subject of an IRS investigation mere weeks after publishing the series’ first report on the ties between the intelligence community and social media platforms, according to House Judiciary Committee Chairman Jim Jordan (R-Ohio).

In March, Jordan wrote to IRS Commissioner Daniel Werfel to inquire as to the reason an IRS agent had paid a visit to Taibbi’s home on the same day he was set to testify before the committee’s panel on the Weaponization of the Federal Government.
