Musk never said he "deleted" IRS Direct File. He deleted the team that created it. https://x.com/elonmusk/status/1886498750052327520 Direct file is clearly still online, which saves you from this clickbaity article: https://www.irs.gov/filing/irs-direct-file-for-free

Original Tweet
Tweet embedding is no longer reliably available, due to the platform's instability (in terms of both technology and policy). If the Tweet still exists, you can view it here: https://twitter.com/foo_bar/status/1887682014947467530
Please note, though, that you may need to have your own Twitter account to access that page. I am currently exploring options for archiving Tweet data in a post-API context.
