Project veritas; State dept. employee admits to using position to "resist" for socialists

a reply to: Teikiatsu

SWAMP CREATURE ALERT! They all gotta go!

a reply to: network dude

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

Absolutely. Demand proof and full context.

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

They tend to not favor my personal views, but you go ahead and assume what you like.

It appears you have nothing else to offer, so I suppose you have to hinge on something.

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.

If you don't believe O'Keefe, then believe Jason Chaffetz. He came out this morning to say that while he was on the Committee for Oversight that a half dozen federal agencies spied on him and harassed him. He laid the majority of the blame on the State Department. His book outlining the details is coming out today...

So a person whose current wealth is dependent on how well he can appeal to Trump supporters wrote a book saying Obama=bad/Trump=good? Color me shocked!

a reply to: Thejoncrichton

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.

No. It's true. He was even taken to court over his actions and no wrongdoing was ever found at Acorn.

He lied and made videos to perpetuate those lies.

WHAT LIE?

Here is an example of just one. From the California AG's office:

The video releases were heavily edited to feature only the worst or most inappropriate statements of the various ACORN employees and to omit some of the most salient statements by O'Keefe and Giles. Each of the ACORN employees recorded in California was a low level employee whose job was to help the needy individuals who walked in the door seeking assistance. Giles and O'Keefe lied to engender compassion, but then edited their statements from the released videos

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

Where did I parrot the media?

You guys sure do like to just say things out of emotions and ignorance.

Sure wish people had more control over themselves and their emotions.

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.

No, that would be the Democrats and the stunts they pulled leading up to the 2016 election, and continue to pull today. Its all coming to light as we speak. How many lies have been told just recently in official Congressional testimony?

a reply to: PokeyJoe

Go ahead. Bury your head in the sand. But all the J20 defendants eventually got off due to the countless Brady violations committed by the DOJ in cooperation with Project Veritas.

I can’t believe I’m just hearing about this. This is insane.

I was going to make a snarky comment about how project veritas is the thirdphasemoon of politics, but as far as I know thirdphase never worked with the government to lock up people who debunk their UFO videos.

So no comments by people that dislike trump other than Veritas is bad?

The same exact crowd that won’t hesitate to comment on a msm story though they know the msm has been caught being partisan liars

a reply to: underwerks

That was just the tip of the iceberg. In total the government withheld 69 potentially exculpatory recordings from the defense.

What do you expect? Project veritas has a track record of consistently editing their videos to push a false narrative, every time. That may be ok to you because it’s a narrative you agree with, but those of us who dislike lying in media are going to call it what it is.

When comparing “media” like project veritas and gateway pundit to other media, ask yourself one question: Have they ever printed a retraction?

If the answer is no, that tells you pretty much everything.

This really gets my goat. Federal employees are the best paid and compensated workers around. To think they spend our tax money using work time to do private projects especially of a biased political nature is just ridiculous. In a private company your ass would be hitting the door and forget any retirement/severance. Protected by Federal workers unions that ensure job stability to those who don't deserve it is a slap in the face to those who pay taxes.

I imagine they could fire half the federal employees tomorrow and nobody would notice the difference.

I don't care much for O'Keefe personally but unless the subject in this vid said "Just kidding" after all that then the "editing" argument is as flaccid as the jokers making them.

So retractions are the standard for media now we should trust?

Hahahahaha!

Yeah ok!

So the msm that constantly lies about trump or exaggerates on headlines, then issues a small retraction that almost no one reads days later are to be trusted, and the retraction proves it

The truth is this video and many others of Veritas have people saying damning things in their own words

People that don’t like the fact that this shows corruption against their perceived team ignore all of it, and say they lied once

Yet these same people have no problem posting article after article by the msm that lies all of the time

I am at least consistent in that I will read material from all sources, and not just ignore it because they lied before

Typical great work from Project Veritas

These cowardly subversive terrorists should be marched out of government and straight into a 4x4x3 at GITMO. They don't even deserve enough room to lay down.

One more bit of legitimacy gone from Uncle Sam, which will continue until a concerted and serious purge of all levels of government happens. These people need to be outed, exposed, discharged, ruined and charged with criminal offenses where applicable. And of course enemies of the Republic belong in GITMO, not on precious native soil.

The only people consistently pushing false narratives are the discredited, debunked, irrelevant, wrong-headed, pathetic and desperate leftists.

🙄

a reply to: JBurns

Once again, the J20 cases were dismissed because the DOJ, working with Project Veritas, withheld 69 exculpatory recordings in cases where people were facing 70+ years.

How can you defend/ignore that?

Well, he kind of admits working for the DSA at the same time as working for the government so honestly, he should be brought up on charges.

Why?
