Summary

On the same day that Matt Taibbi was testifying before Congress about the weaponization of government, the IRS showed up at his home and tried to intimidate him. Is it a coincidence or is it a deliberate act by the government to silence a journalist who exposes the truth about what's going on under our very noses? Or is it part of a larger campaign to delegitimize conservative voices in order to force them to toe the party line? And if we pretend that this isn't happening, we are doing ourselves a huge disservice. It's time to push back now, by voting, by getting out there, by calling it out for what it is, and calling out the radicalization of our government. It s our fault, and it's our fault when we live in Communist China Part 20, because we will have done nothing to stop it. The left has weaponized and radicalized every faction of our Government. And it's time for us to say enough is enough, and call it out. What are you waiting for? Vote for it now, and join the fight. I don t know about you, but it s time to do something about it. I don't think it's going to get any easier than this, folks. Tweet me and let me know what you think!

Transcript

00:00:00.000 Okay guys, for those of you who are still, let's say, crazy enough to believe in coincidence, Matt Taibbi, the journalist who broke the Twitter The guy that was given access to all of the backstory about Twitter manipulating an election, smothering conservative voices, pushing away the Hunter Biden laptop story.
00:00:29.000 The guy that was granted access by Elon Musk was slated to testify Before Congress, before Jim Jordan and the weaponization of government committee that he heads.
00:00:40.000 You probably remember from my Triggered podcast, we had Jim Jordan on there talking about just this.
00:00:47.000 And magically, magically, on the same day that Matt Taibbi was testifying before Congress, the IRS comes knocking on his door.
00:01:01.000 Guys, listen, maybe coincidence has happened, but not anymore in 2023.
00:01:06.000 I don't believe in this much coincidence, and if you've been watching literally anything for like the last six years, you shouldn't either.
00:01:17.000 The fact that the IRS showed up at Matt Taibbi's house on the same day that he testified before Congress and their new committee investigating the weaponization of the federal government is A little bit beyond ironic or suspicious.
00:01:37.000 It's absolutely insane.
00:01:41.000 This is exactly what they're doing, folks.
00:01:44.000 If they don't like what you're saying, if they don't like the narrative that you put out there, they're going to come after you.
00:01:51.000 There's almost zero chance, in my opinion, I'll have to say that so I don't get censored, that this is a coincidence.
00:01:59.000 That they would just magically happen to be looking at the guy.
00:02:02.000 It's not like the IRS doesn't have a strong history of doing this.
00:02:08.000 It's not like the government hasn't shown a clear interest in going after their political enemies as of late.
00:02:15.000 You know, DA Alvin Bragg, the IRS, even before Trump under Obama.
00:02:22.000 What the hell is going on in our country?
00:02:26.000 The IRS visiting the home of a journalist the day he's testifying before a congressional panel about the weaponization of government?
00:02:37.000 That IS the weaponization of government!
00:02:40.000 And if we pretend that this isn't happening under our very noses right now, we are doing ourselves a huge disservice.
00:02:50.000 It is absolutely insane.
00:02:54.000 Matt Taibbi's opening statement on the Twitter files.
00:02:57.000 Twitter, Facebook, Google, and other companies developed a formal system for taking in moderation requests from every corner of government.
00:03:06.000 FBI, DHS, HHS, DOD, the Global Engagement Center, etc., etc.
00:03:12.000 That's his opening line.
00:03:14.000 And we think that it's a coincidence that the IRS knocks on his door that day.
00:03:19.000 I don't know what's going on in our country, folks, but it ain't good.
00:03:23.000 The left has weaponized and radicalized every faction of our government, and it's time for us to say enough is enough.
00:03:31.000 If we don't push back now by voting, by getting out there, by calling it out for what it is, It's our fault when we no longer have a country.
00:03:42.000 It's our fault when we live in Communist China Part 2.0, because we will have done nothing to stop it.
00:03:49.000 This is clearly an attempt to intimidate a journalist, and yet the rest of journalism, the rest of the media, strangely silent.
00:03:58.000 I wonder why. Maybe because they're okay with it.
00:04:02.000 They're okay with censoring an alternate viewpoint.
00:04:05.000 Because our media doesn't exist, and they're an absolute disgrace.
