    Has anyone been following the Project Veritas expose' of the Bernie Sanders campaign staffers?? Here is the first video in a series of 4. (9 minutes)



    Interesting stuff, and direct from paid staffers. Hmmmm.

    What most of the media didn't report, or cover thoroughly, is that the guy who shot at Republican legislators who were practicing for the Republican-Democrat baseball game a few years ago had met with Bernie not long before. I'm not suggesting that Bernie sent him on that mission but that his supporters are a whole lot more unbalanced and dangerous than Trump's.

    Mayor Pete called out Bernie at last night's debate for not taking charge of his supporters.

    This doesn't have anything to do with Bernie, but this Project Veritas panel presentation is interesting if you want something that you can listen to while doing something else, without having to watch it. I am not so familiar with a couple of the panelists but James O'Keefe from Project Veritas, and David Freibeit of Viva Frei, a popular Canadian podcast, are people I listen to regularly. Although they discuss a variety of topics, the thrust of it seems to be about media accuracy and government interference with non-sanctioned media.


    I'll be watching this one next. Besides James O'Keefe, it includes Ben Swan, who used to be an investigative reporter for one of the Fox affiliates but has been working independently, I guess, for the past couple of years, given that I haven't come across him lately.

    @Ken Anderson -- you can rename the thread simply Project Veritas if you like.

    Project Veritas has been taken over through what appears to have been a hostile takeover. O'Keefe has been ousted immediately after breaking one of its largest stories, on Pfizer.

    I was reading somewhere else that it was the board who came down on him. The person saying it implied that some on the board might have had close ties to Pfizer. Not sure if there’s anything to it but it would not surprise me in the least. Business as usual for the powerful and heavily invested.

    Yeah, that's how hostile takeovers usually come about. I'm thinking that Project Veritas is done and hoping that O'Keefe moves on to something else.

    This is James O'Keefe's address to Project Veritas staff on his removal from Project Veritas.

    James O'Keefe's new home is O'Keefe Media Group. Here, he uncovers what looks to be a massive money laundering scheme for Democrat donors.
