James O'Keefe yesterday, back in May, put out the stuff the Democrats just put out of inside Epstein's lair in the Caribbean at Little Pito Island, but they blacked out the names and stuff on the walls and on the phone. So they covered up.

And now, James O'Keefe back in May or it was June released all this stuff inside Epstein Island and all the stuff that implicates Democrats.

And now James O'Keefe got huge undercover footage of the former deputy chief of staff admitting that Biden was a near vegetable and that who really ran the White House.

When James called me, he said, yo, I'm concerned. I want you to know the basis of the Trump administration, Epstein. It's not Trump or his family, but it's not good. I just want you to know this in case something happens.

And this show starts with what I would describe as a half an hour of Alex rambling about a new James O'Keefe video. Oh, great. About how they have uncovered definitive evidence of coup plots within the government.

No, he got forced out of Veritas. Right. Because he was doing like musicals and stuff with company money. And I think they said, enough of this. I don't want you. We're not paying for your DJ equipment.

Pretending to be targeted is literally James's business model. If he didn't pretend that he was being persecuted by the system, he'd have no way to make money. I would argue that James O'Keefe is actually a living embodiment of how there is no systemic persecution of these right-wing shitheads because he has very little talent and negative charisma, and yet he has zero shame, and he's willing to do just about anything for a publicity stunt.

So that's all a fun retelling of how James O'Keefe left Project Veritas. In the real world, according to Veritas, he was being allowed a quiet exit from the company after the board found out about his lavish spending habits using Veritas donor funds.

These guys talking about Trump using burner phones, and then he's like, I've got a phone to sell you! Okay, that is more dystopic than anything. Anything I've ever seen, any corporate intrusion idea I have ever seen is not as dystopic as the guy trying to feed you overthrow the government shit. Putting an ad in for a burner phone in the middle of overthrowing the government. Also, a burner phone that's a company that's owned by Eric Prince, no less.

However, the Project Veritas board didn't appreciate that he was spending ridiculous amounts of money on personal stuff like, quote, $14,000 on a charter flight to meet someone to fix his boat under the guise of meeting with a donor, or how he spent, quote, more than $150,000 on private cars in an 18-month span. They directly called it misappropriation of their finances, and a lot of his stunts have the potential to leave Veritas open to legal exposure, as it did in 2022 when the organization was successfully sued for $120,000 for violating wiretapping laws in one of their stings. Exactly. James O'Keefe is a piece of shit, and his actions are a liability for the organization that he founded now that it's grown into something that involves more than publicity stunts to feed his ego. And he got bit by his own snake.

I am 100% sure this man, whose entire career is based... Off of lying to the people that he is speaking to at any given point in time. For the sake of attention. For the sake of attention and profit.

It honestly comes off less about like he's trying to prove some kind of claim. It seems more like he has this narrative that he wants to sell to people, and he's trying to recruit other people to play the role of whistleblowers for him, like to use them as props. He's multi-level marketing. Would you like to be a prop in my next?

I just, I don't care. James O 'Keefe is the boy who cried wolf, quite frankly. I don't care about what he has to say.

This would be completely laughable and discrediting under normal circumstances, but what O 'Keefe is doing has a strong potential to lead to violence against left-leaning protesters. Who easily tricked viewers, we'll assume, are Antifa and thus domestic terrorists.

There's another aspect to this that deserves mention, and that is that James O 'Keefe doesn't give a fuck about the Epstein story. He's doing this to attack the media. This entire thing is about attacking the institutions that have rightly excluded him and talked about how he's a lying, manipulative shill for right-wing billionaires ever since he and Andrew Breitbart got together. Nothing about what he's doing brings anything new to the Epstein story. Literally, the only thing that comes out of this is trying to attack the media. That is all he cares about.

Honestly, all of James O'Keefe's exposés are complete trash and embarrassing, but this one's particularly weird to watch.

James O 'Keefe canceled on Alex. He's pretending he's sick so he doesn't have to come talk to this guy.

Charney was arrested because James O 'Keefe had secretly recorded him discussing the idea of a quote-unquote acid attack on the deplorable. The conversation was about pulling the fire alarms and throwing a stink bomb, by the way. But of course, Paul Joseph Watson and his ilk make it out to be mustard gas or some shit.

James O 'Keefe is such a longtime con man that I really just can't take anything he produces too seriously. I would think that anyone who had any actual scoop about anything in the real world would know better than to call him when there's plenty of nonpartisan investigative reporters ready and willing to take on issues related to big tech.

Then there was Juan Vera, an Acorn employee who sued O 'Keefe after his bullshit pimp video came out. O'Keefe didn't have permission to record their private conversation, so O'Keefe tried to argue that the conversation wasn't private. The judge didn't agree, so O'Keefe quickly settled the case, paying Vera $100,000.

The last node on the flowchart says, quote, people like us are programmed, which O 'Keefe presents as that being supposed to reflect Google's goal. In context, this isn't a flowchart that shows Google's brainwashing plans. It's a slide in a PowerPoint presentation about the interaction between human input and AI in terms of algorithm creation. Just after this slide in the presentation, there's a slide that says, quote, And unfortunately, we humans have a history of making product design decisions that are in line with defaults and not with the needs of everyone. The we get programmed thing isn't the result. It's discussing a problem that arises from unconsciously accepting default ideas that are dangerous. This is just intentionally dishonest.

So when he's also discussing that Janai said that no one was drawing a line in the sand, and that's, you know, Google's a big company, so why not them? He's completely misrepresenting what she's clearly talking about. A lot of this becomes totally clear if you actually read the documents that Project Veritas released along with this video. A lot of the information in there actually debunks everything that James O 'Keefe is saying.

In the same way that James O 'Keefe can't be publicly aware of the fact that the documents that he released contradict his claims.

He can't be publicly aware of the fact that his videos don't depict what he says they do.

Those videos were manipulatively edited to such an absurd extent that the one thing Alex remembers about the video isn't real. James O'Keefe didn't go to Acorn dressed as a 70s pimp with a girl dressed like a prostitute. They showed up and talked to people in what you might call business casual attire, but later edited in footage of them dressed as a pimp and prostitute in order to make the viewer think that all the interviews, as they were happening when they were talking to the Acorn worker, they want you to think that they were dressed as a pimp and that this person was engaged.

So, the reason that James O 'Keefe got arrested for what he did to Mary Landrieu is because what he did was a fucking felony. And he is damn lucky he didn't do hard time for it.

Once inside, according to the FBI, they quote, manipulated the telephone system, which led some to believe that their true intention was to bug her phones. You can't do that. You can't. No, you can't. Like, you couldn't come here and manipulate your phone device without us being like, this is a crime. O 'Keefe denied that that's what he was doing, but ultimately it's hard to see what the goal of this stunt would have been. She said her phones were really busy, so they dress up like telephone employees and mess with the phone system to prove the phones aren't receiving a higher call volume? Their actions don't really make a lot of sense in that context, but they make a ton of sense if their goal was to illegally tap her phone.

So James O 'Keefe was sentenced to three years probation, 100 hours of community service, and a $1,500 fine. This is just one of the many instances in his career of him being the Living embodiment of the white privilege he insists doesn't exist. Because anybody else caught in the situation that he was caught in would not... We wouldn't know about them.

Well, that's one of the things that I thought about doing with this recent Citizens Against Senseless Violence mockumentary we made on YouTube. I thought about going to... The Sidwell School, this is the school where David Gregory's kids go in Washington, as well as Barack Obama's kids go. And I just thought it was too risky because, you know, their Secret Service is there. Smart. It would just be too risky. They'd probably arrest me immediately.

I would posit that these prank calls really reveal more about the people making them than the people receiving them. Because the positions that they advocate... Aren't really out of line with their real positions.

The shredding of the Constitution is always the girl who is the mark or is the plant. It's always her idea. And people are like, I guess. It doesn't prove anything. It doesn't prove that the universities want to get rid of the Constitution. It's fucking nonsense.

He's been discredited repeatedly in the past and been sued. Repeatedly. Successfully.

But yeah, he's been outed as an out-and-out fraud. He commits acts of journalistic debauchery. Right. He has no credibility.

They did that bogus video about Acorn where he ended up having to issue a public apology and pay $100,000 in a court settlement because he was shown to have manipulated videos to show people saying things they didn't say. He purported to have worn a pimp costume into the Acorn. Place? He did not.

Also, in August 2010, James O 'Keefe planned a staged encounter with CNN correspondent Abby Boudreau, who was doing a documentary on the young conservative movement. He set up an appointment at his office in Maryland to discuss a video shoot. Izzy Santa, which is a crazy name, executive... I could have swore that what you meant was like, is James O 'Keefe Santa? I'm like, I mean, the evidence isn't in yet. They weren't in the same room. I wonder if he has a hastily edited video showing that he is Santa. Is he Santa? Answers no. Executive director of Project Veritas warned Boudreaux that O 'Keefe was planning to punk her on the boat by trying to seduce her, which he would film on hidden cameras. Boudreaux did not board the boat and soon left the area.

He's constantly also been caught trying to get people to commit voter fraud, and then they're on tape being like, we're not going to do that. This is illegal.

He's literally committing entrapment. Yeah, no, but you can't commit entrapment if you're not part of the... If you're not a cop. Yeah, exactly. So in the latest video, he taped some people who were progressive activists who were planning to put a stink bomb in the ventilation at the deplorable, which would cause a stampede or blah, blah, blah, blah, blah.
