No. Believing anything that comes from Project (not so) Veritas is a laughing matter.

Yes, but you commies clearly have no concern over the fact that aliens murdered Jack Nicholson.

Wait are people seriously believing Project Veritas? Am I missing something here? :blink:

Some people are. They're also shocked by the fact that some of us don't.

Ah here it is...

https://www.washingtonpost.com/blogs/plum-line/wp/2017/11/28/the-latest-conservative-scam-got-exposed-but-its-just-one-piece-of-a-much-bigger-fraud/?utm_term=.d1712c26364a

O’Keefe first gained fame in 2009 with a misleadingly edited video in which he claimed he got staffers for a group that did things such as voter registration to give him advice on setting up a prostitution business. By the time O’Keefe’s deceptions were exposed (he later agreed to pay $100,000 to an ACORN employee), Republicans had already cranked up their outrage machine, and in the resulting controversy ACORN essentially imploded and went out of business. O’Keefe then rode that success to legitimization within the conservative movement.

...

O’Keefe and three others were arrested and pled guilty to charges after posing as telephone repairmen in an apparent attempt to bug Sen. Mary Landrieu’s office. After calling a staffer at George Soros’s Open Society Institute using an assumed name, he forgot to hang up the phone and left a long message in which he and colleagues discussed their plan to infiltrate the foundation. He put on an Osama bin Laden mask and waded into the Rio Grande.

In short, O’Keefe is a fraudster and a buffoon. But here’s what’s important to know about him: He’s a fraudster and a buffoon who is treated like a serious person by substantial parts of the conservative movement. His organization, Project Veritas, had a budget of just under $5 million in 2016. He’s got dozens of employees.

And O’Keefe won’t be slowed down by this latest embarrassment, because people on the right will still give him their money. How do I know that? Because it’s what they’ve been doing for decades.

What else did you expect from our resident socialists? Big government and the nanny state is what they worship. 

stop using words you don't understand.

Granted, that would make your posting virtually non-existent, but I doubt many here would complain.

He was also got caught by the Washington Post during the Roy Moore circus, was proven to have heavily edited the NPR "sting," removing the repeated attempts by the NPR executives to say that donations to NPR would not influence editorial decisions, and so many, many more. 

Dude is a fraud, and it is always a shock to see his work attributed: https://www.theatlantic.com/politics/archive/2017/11/james-okeefe/546911/
