Is Project Veritas (& James O'Keefe) Conducting Political Hit Jobs for Donald Trump?








James O'Keefe Stung By His Own Sting!

You may have heard news over the weekend that James O'Keefe was doing his best to catch liberal groups in the act of taking money to incite violence during the inaugural. It was a typical O'Keefe operation, right down to the core. Infiltrate liberal groups, offer huge amounts of money for acts they don't engage in, and hope someone bites.

Now he's been hoist by his own petard. Lauren Windsor is a liberal activist who recorded his attempts to frame liberals for what conservatives generally do.

Huffington Post reports:

The counter-sting, carried out by The Undercurrent, a project of a previous target of provocateur James O’Keefe, managed to surreptitiously record elements of O’Keefe’s network offering huge sums of money to progressive activists if they would disrupt the ceremony and “put a stop to the inauguration” and the related proceedings to such a degree that donors to the clandestine effort would “turn on a TV and maybe not even see Trump.” To have riots blot out coverage of Trump, the donor offered “unlimited resources,” including to shut down bridges into D.C.

But Karma knocked, and she's a bitch.
