Media tries to discredit James O’Keefe, Project Veritas
So
yesterday in prime time, Fox News ran some footage from James O’Keefe’s Project
Veritas video exposé on dirty tricks implemented by various organizations
supporting the Clinton campaign. Then Fox went into overdrive to discredit
James O’Keefe. The dismissive remarks of course referenced O’Keefe’s 2010 arrest when he got caught impersonating a telephone company employee (the charge was phone tampering) while working to
expose then-Senator Mary Landrieu (D-LA), who was allegedly avoiding any and
all calls from her constituents who were upset about Obamacare. O’Keefe’s standards
as a journalist were not at issue, yet the Fox narrative claims that he is
known for phony and misleading editing.
O’Keefe
has made enemies, to be sure. His exposés on Planned Parenthood and ACORN
provoked all kinds of attacks on him, his ethics, his editorial bias, and his
selective editing. Salon describes him as “best known for selectively editing
undercover footage to get people fired.”
Let
me say something about selective editing.
I
was interviewed for a television documentary a few years ago. I was in front of
the cameras for about 2½ hours and appeared in the final cut for maybe 3-4
minutes. Before the documentary was broadcast, somebody asked me how I thought
I did. My reply was that if the producers wanted me to look good, I’d look
good. If they wanted me to look bad, I’d look bad. Ah yes, was the reply. That
ole cutting room floor.
Everything
we see on TV or read in the news has been edited. The question is: was the
edited final product faithful to the original report? You’ll decide if O’Keefe
has/had his thumb on the editorial scale or not.
From
where I’m sitting, O’Keefe is doing the investigative journalism that the
mainstream media not only refuses to do, but works aggressively to suppress and
discredit. Already, the progressives are claiming on Fox that the statements
caught on the Project Veritas video were merely hypothetical ideas that were
never implemented. Then how come two of the principal players in the undercover
videos have been fired or have resigned? That would be Democratic consultant
Robert Creamer (who visited the White House multiple times) and
Scott Foval,
national field director for Americans United for Change. (No doubt they will turn up
wearing another hat in another room real soon.)

Hillary’s criminal rap sheet
art credit: Your Perception is not Reality
Front Page Magazine is a website published by the David Horowitz
Freedom Center. The Center is dedicated to exposing the agenda and tactics of
the radical left, whether socialists, communists, liberal, etc. A few days ago, John Perazzo collected a long list of Hillary Clinton’s crimes and misdemeanors.
Mostly crimes. His title is “The
Clinton Record: A devastating exposé of the most unfit and undeserving
individual ever to seek the American presidency.” The
article is very long, it’s footnoted, and it is devastating. Below are the bullet point conclusions.
This, then, is Hillary Clinton:
a woman who is wholly, unequivocally unfit to serve as anything more than an
inmate in a federal penitentiary. She has demonstrated, time and again:
- that she cannot, under any circumstances, be trusted with national security or state secrets;
- that she treats the paper on which the Espionage Act is written, with no more reverence than she would give to a strip of toilet paper;
- that she treats with similar disregard the paper on which the U.S. Constitution is written;
- that her judgment in matters of international conflict, diplomacy, and terrorism is an abomination;
- that she routinely uses her “charitable foundation” as a money-laundering operation designed to enrich herself under the guise of helping the needy;
- that she will gladly sell out her country, and everyone in it, in exchange for material riches and political dominion;
- the she is intent upon using the most irresponsible refugee and immigration policies imaginable to import countless millions of people from hostile, impoverished nations across the globe for one core purpose: to permanently transform the American population into one that will vote reliably Democrat from now until the end of time;
- that she fully intends to purge the Second Amendment from the Bill of Rights;
- that she unequivocally plans to expand the disastrous, failing Obamacare debacle into an even more monstrous, government-run, single-payer healthcare system;
- that she favors soft-on-crime policies that have repeatedly been shown to cause violent crime rates to skyrocket;
- that she is perfectly willing to institutionalize massive, ubiquitous voter fraud because she believes that it will ensure additional power for her political party;
- that she views white Americans as a whole, as inherently, “implicitly,” and “irredeemably” racist, and therefore in constant need of an all-powerful government to restrain their bigoted impulses;
- that despite her professed aversion to racism in general, she is quite happy to ally herself with “politically correct” racists like Al Sharpton and the Black Lives Matter movement; and
- that she opposes the imposition of any restrictions whatsoever on abortion rights, or on the government's power to force taxpayers to fund abortions.
In the final analysis, Hillary
Clinton is a woman with a mindset that is totalitarian in every respect. To
make matters worse, she is a lying, deceiving, manipulative, self-absorbed
criminal without a shred of personal virtue. Truly it can be said that never
before in American history has anyone so unfit and so undeserving, run for
president. Never.

UPDATE: Project Veritas video cited in FEC complaint
art credit: Public Interest Legal Foundation
That was fast!
J.
Christian Adams, a frequent contributor to TV news, heads up the Public Interest Legal Foundation. A member of his
team just filed a complaint naming the DNC (Democratic National Committee),
Hillary For America, and other individuals and organizations. The complaint
credits Project Veritas Action, i.e., James O’Keefe’s exposés on video of potentially illegal actions behind the Clinton campaign and deliberate efforts to rig elections. A reader at Treehouse
posted a link to the pdf file with the complaint. It is addressed to the Federal
Election Commission and demands an investigation. It’s a start, and it is good to see O'Keefe's undercover work forming part of the basis for the legal complaint.

Project Veritas Video #2: HOW TO commit Voter Fraud
(accessed on YouTube)
Stay
with it, despite some repetition. (Some of the repetition is probably to cover the base in
case the viewer did not already watch Video #1 – or just to drive home a point). You
may want to take a shower after you view it. It is sleazy dirty stuff.
And
after that, share it on social media, or take up O’Keefe’s request that you forward it (or link) by email or tweet to every “journalist” or “news organization” that you can.

A Rigged Election: Project Veritas- Clinton, Collusion & Criminality
James O’Keefe released the first of his undercover Project Veritas videos that capture explicit statements from personnel identified with various political organizations working to disrupt Trump and Pence events. These are the people and organizations behind, for example, the cancellation, due to security concerns, of the Trump rally in Chicago. These organizations are not supposed to coordinate with campaigns and the DNC, and you will learn how they position themselves to get around the laws to achieve their goals.
Part
1 of “A Rigged Election,” above, is 16 minutes along. It is very disturbing to watch,
and you will need a strong stomach. There is obviously more to come.
Part
1, all by itself, would be a a thorough rejoinder to Greg Gutfeld’s disingenuous
statement yesterday on Fox that Trump’s sounding the alarm over a rigged election is premature –
sort of like challenging the referee before the game is played. Oh?
What about
the voter registration fraud we are already seeing in Colorado, Virginia, Pennsylvania, and elsewhere ? What about the actual voter fraud documented from the 2012 election. And now we have Part 1 of “A Rigged Election” that shows the individuals, organizations, and methods
underlying all this disruption, fraud, and corruption.
The
second video below (h/t Sundance) is James O’Keefe’s short message on what Tea
Party people can do to bust through the corporate media black-out on the Part 1 video, per above.

Eric Holder named to lead effort to destroy GOP
art credit: OtterLimits
If
this doesn’t scare you, nothing will. It's not a headline from The Onion, either. From Thomas Lifson at AmericanThinker:
Eric Holder named to lead effort to destroy GOP
after Hillary
wins the presidency
This election is for keeps:
plans are being implemented, with President Obama already signed on, staff
hired, and money being raised. Perhaps lulled into complacency by the MSM
polls, the Democrats have already constructed and staffed their strategy to
permanently disable the Republican Party. Eric Holder is the perfect
henchman, a man above nothing in his quest for political dominance, unbound by
old-fashioned concepts of justice.
The GOP will remain in
existence as the token opposition, useful for legitimizing the actual one-party
regime, the essential element of the election rituals reminding us of the
Republic we once enjoyed.
Edward Isaac-Dovere of Politico has
the scoop:
As Democrats aim to capitalize
on this year’s Republican turmoil and start building back their own decimated
bench, former Attorney General Eric Holder will chair a new umbrella group
focused on redistricting reform—with the aim of taking on the gerrymandering
that’s left the party behind in statehouses and made winning a House majority
far more difficult.
The new group, called the
National Democratic Redistricting Committee, was developed in close
consultation with the White House. President Barack Obama himself has now
identified the group—which will coordinate campaign strategy, direct
fundraising, organize ballot initiatives and put together legal challenges to
state redistricting maps—as the main focus of his political activity once he
leaves office.
The group is moving forward in
a systematic way, assembling talent and money:
Though initial plans to be
active in this year’s elections fell short, the group has been incorporated as
a 527, with Democratic Governors Association executive director Elizabeth
Pearson as its president and House Majority PAC executive director Ali Lapp as
its vice president. They’ve been pitching donors and aiming to put together its
first phase action plan for December, moving first in the Virginia and New
Jersey state elections next year and with an eye toward coordination across
gubernatorial, state legislative and House races going into the 2018 midterms.
Redistricting, aka
Gerrymandering (depending on the eye of the beholder), is now a science, thanks
to the data-mining capabilities of all the Silicon Valley Big Money corporatist
allies of the Democrats. Assembling masses of data from Google, Facebook,
and others, they can put together districts micro-targeted with just enough
Democrats to win and shove the GOP voters into 90% majority districts,
shut out forever from control of state legislatures and the House of
Representatives.
As Richard Baehr emailed me,
"so long as there is an opposition, it must be destroyed."
It will be, if these well
designed, politically connected, well financed efforts are implemented under a
President Rodham.
Combined with a Supreme Court committed to the living
Constitution fantasy, the Uniparty will rule us all any way it desires.
The continuing avalanche of Wikileaks confirms just how corrupt the
entire political and governmental structures are. Sharyl Attkisson (who quit her CBS job a couple of years ago amid concerns of media bias) has a long column focusing
on the corrupt corporate media scandal she is calling “Newsgate.” It looks like it's merely the tip of the iceberg.
