I did read the articles. Did you read them to the end? Yes, Senate Democrats did claim there were holes and contradictions, but the victim claims there were not.

And, no the rapper wasn't tazed or his dog wasn't shot, but IRS agents did raid his home carrying shotguns.

So when you said "bust your door down, shoot your dog, taze you, and throw you in jail," for simple failure to pay taxes, what did you mean?

Because the story in the linked articles went something like "bust down your door, NOT shoot your dog, NOT taze you, NOT throw you in jail, but seize some of your stuff to pay off a sizeable tax debt or maybe work out a deal to pay off your taxes". Which is a big difference from what you originally said.

I think the grandparent was going overboard in his description. I was just trying to say they aren't far from it!
