This is the first in a new series of videos by Veritas showing deep state actors.

A few caveats; I dont like how veritas edits their videos, I wish they would also release the full videos, though I know some stuff would need to be left out to protect sources.

Also, the guy ion this video does seem like small potatoes.

But he is admitting to using his work time as a state dept employee to resist and push info for the democratic socialists of America, which would be against the Hatch act.

And according to veritas, they are going to have more videos where the theme is these resisters all say that federal employees are difficult to fire, which is how they get away with it.

I will comment more in a bit, but if this is occurring often, it is a huge problem.

My take on it.

I hope we see a lot more of these and momentum begins to shrink the federal government, not just clean it out.

I watched the announcement on this investigation yesterday, pretty interesting stuff coming out.

I wonder if there's anyone against Project Veritas and the reason not so support it. Exposing corruption in first-hand is something amazing.

Way better than using "anonymous sources" we don't even know if it exists or not.

I will repeat the question asked by Lt. Kaffee, from A Few Good Men

"[D]oes the Navy still hang people from yardarms?"

If this isn't a reason to believe in small government, I don't know what is

Stop pushing this garbage. Project veritas and O'Keefe have been exposed over and over as lying propaganda. It's a fraud factory. You even admit to being uncomfortable with their slice and dice video edits yet here you are giving them exposure and validation, bravo.

The propaganda is saying what you just repeated here. He has not been proven to be lying.

They release the full videos too. You're aware that everything on TV is sliced and diced, right? Yet here you are repeating their narrative.

So we should close our eyes for the crimes these federal employees are admitting because the Washington Post said Project Veritas is a scam?

Yea... I think not.

I find the post like this to be tiresome.

If a trump supporter says someone posting a cnn (nyt, nbc, wash post, etc.) article should stop posting garbage and ignore the OP because CNN has been shown to be lying propaganda, I would say we should focus on the actual article instead of saying we should ignore anything from cnn.

So why should this be any different?

The video speaks for itself; a state dept. employee admitting to not doing his job, and instead using his work time paid for by US tax dollars to resist, and he gets away with it because its basically rubber stamped.

Anything specifically you have a problem with in this video?

Ahh, yes. James Okeefe really is a pimp and never edited those ACORN videos in a manner to show something that was untrue.

He must rock a mean fur coat and pimp cane in his daily life as a pimp....because he has never lied, right?

Yes. I will consider the accusations and evidence when PV can release the videos unedited and in complete context.

The same I have said about their previous videos. They did release a supposed "unedited" video a while back regarding the DNC, I believe, but come to find out it was not unedited.

The point being that Okeefe and PV cannot be believed whatsoever, due to their past actions and completely dishonest tactics.

The Acorn video/case is just one example of why they cannot be trusted without a whole lot of evidence to back their claims. Unedited evidence, that is. And of course, after an investigation, despite Okeefe's claims, Acorn was not found to be doing what they were accused of.

Why?

Because he lied and misrepresented the facts to his target audience. Which, apparently, is people who think pimps dress in fur coats and walk with canes.

As a former employee of the Federal government, who worked daily with many GS employees, I can tell you he is correct. It is impossible to fire a Federal employee. OK, not LITERALLY impossible, but it almost takes an act of Congress. I cannot tell you how many lazy, checked out GS people I worked with over the years. They had no interest in actually working, just accruing a paycheck and time served until retirement.

so by the same token MSNBC cannot be taken seriously and should be completely ignored, as well as CNN?

Or should we evaluate those avenues on a case by case basis since they favor your views?

You guys repeat this over and over. It's not true. The full videos are released and no editing made those people say what they said. You all just have no defense, so you just repeat that it's not real over and over.

WHAT LIE?

Also, is this your standard for the Media that you parrot?

I don’t like how they edit videos either. They’re almost as bad as the MSM.

The employee is essentially admitting to Blanquism.

As we can see, the truth indeed hurts (some).... while others welcome it.

It's the only thing keeping Project Veritas around.

State level employees doing their damnedest to circumvent the US constitution??... here is my surprised face

Project Veritas is pretty much the propaganda arm of the Trump administration. That became exceedingly clear during the J20 trials. The DOJ and Project Veritas collaborated to use edited videos claiming them to be the whole truth in an attempt to put people away for 70+ years for simply attending an anti-Trump protest.

How anyone on this site can continue to support them or our government after that is absolutely mind boggling. They literally lied in court with the blessing of the government so people with a different political view would go to prison for the rest of their lives.

That's the kind of stuff the Nazis and the Soviets would do.
