Intimidation? IRS agent visited journalist after he testified on censorship, Jim Jordan reveals
While Taibbi was away from his New Jersey home, an IRS agent left a note asking that he contact the agency.
House Judiciary Committee Chairman Jim Jordan demanded on Monday that the Department of the Treasury and the IRS account for an incident that he considers possible witness intimidation in which an IRS agent visited the home of alternative journalist Matt Taibbi.
"In light of the hostile reaction to Mr. Taibbi’s reporting among left-wing activists, and the IRS’s history as a tool of government abuse,
the IRS’s action could be interpreted as an attempt to intimidate a witness before Congress," Jordan wrote to IRS Commissioner Daniel Werfel and Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen.
