The FBI Raid of Project Veritas Turns Into a Massive Scandal After Privileged Communications Are Leaked

Loading

by Bonchie

As RedState reported, Project Veritas has found itself in the crosshairs of the FBI recently. That began with a raid on the homes of several of its journalists under the guise of looking for Ashley Biden’s diary. Apparently, a stolen diary is now in the purview of federal authorities. Will they be investigating bike thefts next?

 
But what was so disturbing, besides the raids happening in the first place, was how quickly The New York Times knew about them. While O’Keefe was asked by the FBI to keep quiet, the Times knew within hours, pointing to a leaker within the bureau.

But while the Department of Justice requested us to not disclose the existence of the subpoena, something very unusual happened. Within an hour of one of our reporters’ homes being secretly raided by the FBI, The New York Times, who we are currently suing for defamation, contacted the Project Veritas reporter for comment. We do not know how The New York Times was aware of the execution of a search warrant at our reporter’s home, or the subject matter of the search warrant, as a Grand Jury investigation is secret.

Days later, O’Keefe would have his home raided as well, and sure enough, the Times once again knew it about it before anyone else. Are you noticing a pattern? Because it’s about to become as obvious as a neon sign.

 

 

Two days ago, a court ordered the FBI to stop extracting data from O’Keefe’s phones, which had apparently been seized. Again, all of this is being done under the allegation that…a diary was stolen. But then last night, things boiled over into outright scandal. The Times suddenly started publishing privileged communications between Project Veritas and its legal team. Those messages apparently came from one of O’Keefe’s phones.

 
Yes, you read that right. Project Veritas had recently sued The New York Times over an unrelated matter, and now the Times has Project Veritas’ privileged communications that reveal their legal strategies. Given the circumstances, there could only be one logical source for that information — the FBI.

This is absolutely scandalous, though nothing is really surprising anymore when dealing with the FBI. It appears that a major newspaper has colluded with the federal government to target an investigative reporting outlet. Of course, there are still more dots to connect, but if there’s some other explanation, I’m not seeing it. The pretense of the original raid simply made no sense (really, a diary?), and the Times has been getting leaks from the bureau every step of the way in order to target Project Veritas.
 
If this isn’t a coordinated political hit job on a journalistic organization, then what is it? So many lines have now been crossed that it’s hard to keep up with them all. Worse, what can Project Veritas even do about it? The Biden-run DOJ is not going to investigate these leaks, and the damage has already been done. The Times now has possession of these privileged communications even as they are being sued by Project Veritas. Think about how absurd that is.

Biden IS the bumbling despot they Democrats maliciously tried to frame Trump as being.

Did the FBI have a dirty trickster create a phony diary, then shop it to Project Veritas, just so they could raid all these offices and mine data from all those phones?
The so-called diary sounds too good to be true,* and rightly, James O’Keefe gave it a look over then passed on pubishing anything about it.
Donald Henry Segretti, Richard Nixon’s dirty trickster, would be proud.

* From the one page that has leaked online this fiction has six, count ’em six allegations of impropriety of a sexual nature.
On ONE PAGE of this thing!comment image

Well, we know the fbi is in the business of entrapment.Governor of Michigan, January 06 and now possibly this. Makes one wonder for sure.

As always, who watches the watchers?

The once proud FBI now just a Deep State Bureaucracy

One person argued that Veritas had been convicted for editing the videos and other dishonest activities in their Planned Parenthood investigations. Upon checking the accusations out, it turned out they’ve been cited for illegally making recordings, not any dishonesty or lies in the material presented. So, it was just a chickenshit retribution for exposing the barbaric activities of Planned Parenthood, not their content being unfair.

This is why the left has a hardon of Veritas; they are a real threat to exposing their corruption.

Because Biden’s are too stupid to keep track of their personal property, others have to pay the price. I hope O’Keefe sues the FBI, but I sure get tired of the US taxpayer having to pay for idiot Biden’s stupid mistakes.

No, project Veritas LIED. They create propaganda videos, not documentaries. The twist reality. O’Keefe is a propagandist.

Republicans can no longer win elections by telling the truth—only by distorting it or hiding it.

Biden the serial liar Cornpop, drunk driver killing his wife, his education but nothing on the subject, why the raid over a childhood diary. How do the “victims “of O’keef get them to brag about illegal activities.
Those Jab side effects…man you cant cure stupid with a non working gene therapy booster. Who hid Hunters laptop during the election?
Its hitting the fan for the commie Dems and Biden is riding the destruction of a never great party of slavery.

Kitt, don’t you know that Comrade Greggie loves pointing out liars and he/she/it would tell us if China Joe Biden was a liar. Comrade Greggie would do everything he/she/it could to expose the liar China Joe Biden, the liars at the NYSlimes and Washington Compost and of course, his/her/its favorite news channel, CNN.

And that story about Hunter’s lap top? Just Russian propaganda, don’t you know? Just ask Comrade Greggie.

And what about the Comet Ping-Pong Pizzeria pedophilia trafficking? Biden likes pizza. What more proof does anyone need?

Comrade Greggie, I knew Biden likes to fondle young girls. I didn’t know he also likes pizza But I’m sure if it involves fattening his bank account, Biden would support pedophilia.

Do you think those Mexican cartels that are trafficking young girls into sexual slavery in the US are giving Biden a kickback and that is why he has thrown the southern border wide open? Gee, Comrade Greggie; you may be on to something. Hell, even a blind squirrel finds an acorn every now and then.

That idea has been inserted into your heads by right-wing propagandists. There’s plenty of room left for more nonsense. The only thing that surprises me is how unsophisticated their target audience is in the matter of separating fact from fiction.

The trick is apparently to tell your target audience things that they want to believe are true. Such things are much easier to sell than complicated truths, or simple facts that people don’t want to hear.

Well, he does sniff children…and have unresolved/suppressed sexual assault charged…and his own daughter said he toke showers with him…

…and he’s trafficking caged kids from Mexico into states, violating the law.

As usual, so much proof.

*charges, took

toke was good reference to the druggies he raised.
O’keef was’nt biting on the entrapment, or putting out anything he couldnt verify as true. His reputation is so much better than all the MSM.
FREE ASSANGE!

Well, as the videos and testimony shows, idiot Biden IS a sexual abuser. I wonder what Epstein had on him?

“The trick is apparently to tell your target audience things that they want to believe are true. ” Oh… you mean like Russian collusion? Emoluments? Quid pro quo? You should take a couple of steps back and look at yourself. You are a parody.

They win plenty of elections: just flipped Va and destroyed the Dems by taking many in the House.

Democrats can’t win elections on their platform, because they don’t have one. Trump was so successful and completely unbeatable the Democrats had to release a virus and STILL rig an election.

They are just an authoritarian arm of old white Billionaires in the form of banks, healthcare/pharma companies, and big tech.

The rigged election is going to have major consequences for Democrats and their puppet masters.

Nope, wrong again. Not one bit of their content has been disputed. You simply lack the fortitude to face the truth. Now, idiot Biden has his personal Gestapo try to clean up his personal messes. I seem to remember you accusing Trump of doing what idiot Biden is doing now.

I’m sure it hasn’t been disputed in Trumpworld. Elsewhere, their pattern of intentionally deceptive editing is easily recognized.

Never been any deceptive editing. They always provide the full video along with the edited version that takes out the irrelevant parts.

Uh, it’s a fact you fool.

Biden is the unelected despot you morons said Trump was. Raiding O’Keef’s place is what the Stasi do.

You’re the bad guys, doing what bad, authoritarian marxists do.

You know it, we know it.

If you’re wrong, you’re following the guy who’s trying to BECOME America’s authoritarian leader—the man who represents the multi-millionaires and billionaires. Do you think a man who is carrying an estimated $1.3 billion in debts cares if inflation erodes the value of the dollars he owe?

“If you’re wrong, you’re following the guy who’s trying to BECOME America’s authoritarian leader” Except we aren’t wrong. We saw 4 years of Trump and we’ve seen 10 months of idiot Biden. Trump reinstated respecting the Constitution and working for the American people. Idiot Biden has hurt the vast majority of Americans to placate a small but vocal and often violent minority within his constituency. Idiot Biden, moving in the directions his strings are pulled, has PROVE to be the authoritarian and unconstitutional despot.

Democrats come right out and say they don’t care about inflation; THEY can afford it, so why can’t we? Isn’t EVERYONE a wealthy waste of space that gets paid for talking and gets rich off of bribes like they do? Doesn’t everyone travel on a private jet or a caravan of suv’s paid for by someone else?

gregs argument ignores facts and only centers on his emotional dislike of President Trump. What greg fails to realize is his emotional dislike of President Trump is a dislike of more than 74 million Americans. It is illogical to characterize 74 million Americans as not only patriotic but America first in their geo political views…

And where does this dislike come from? Because Trump defeated Hillary, probably the most despicable candidate to ever run for office. They all felt cheated because Democrats PROMISED them Hillary would win (they don’t understand about personal choice and voting and stuff) and hate Trump for it. But they needed to continually stoke that hatred because Trump was succeeding in helping the nation and people, so they made shit up to hate him for.

Greg is a perfect example of that. Everything he pretends to hate about Trump (which he has developed in his own imagination) he votes for and supports in Democrats.

Absolutely.
The hatred for President Trump is because he put the American people in the room. He gave the American people a say in their government which they had thought for years they had. And, when push cave to shove, the American people realize their government is “their”enemy.
The left recognizes now they are in a fight. They know good eventually triumphs evil. That is one reason why the are moving as fast as they can seeing the uprising of their enemy, the American people.

Our founders warned us of this centuries ago.

Republicans are selling the idea that the government is your enemy so that they can become the government. They’re selling the idea of deregulation so that the special interests they represent can be free of regulation. They’re selling the idea that taxation is theft so that they can be free of taxes.

The current rogue government is an enemy, period

GFY

Where in the Constitution does it say that a state legislature can declare the results of an election void and pronounce their own candidate the winner?

Article I
Section 4
Clause 1
By counting only every LEGAL vote, those that are legal as to each States constitution.
Any other stupid questions?
No one person or group can decide what laws are invalid such as our WEC or any AG or judge, it must come from the legislators of the states.

Here is the question greg and his/her fellow travelers will not answer. Why are they opposed to the America that the majority of Americans want? Why do they demonstrably defy the will of the people?
When the people of any state vote in a referendum that is contrary to the leftist view, some leftist judge will rule against that will of the people.
California is replete with examples where the people have constitutionally voted in referendums for how they would want issues in their state to be resolved. Yet, time after time, when that will has been in opposition to the left, it gets defeated in a rogue democrat court.

This is a fourth turning in our time. Allowing the corrupt elected and unelected bureaucrats to govern against the will of the people will reach a crescendo.

Comrade Greggie, what’s your opinion on San Fran Nan officiating the Getty wedding this past week sans a protective mask? San Fran Nan who has the largest collection of masks possible all to coordinate with her outfit of the day? The same politician who wants to force children to wear masks, children who are least likely to catch the Chinese created virus than any demographic? And how about her pandering to someone worth BILLIONS OF $$$$$$? I thought Democrats were the enemy of the wealthy. Clearly San Fran Nan doesn’t fit that description.

So while you can do nothing but make stupid, idiotic Socialist comments about Trump, how about you give us an honest assessment of the actions of your Democrat leaders? Or are you too big a coward that is impossible?

Biden represents Billionaire and it authoritarian.

You’re following that guy right of the cliff.

Be my guest, but leave my country out of it. You’re free to leave.

And who exactly am I “following”?

I’m following the Constitution.

You are not.

I’m right. You’re wrong. The beta-cucks like you in 1930s Europe who knew this but didn’t stand up and just say it are partially to blame for Hitler.

You’re Hilter. I’m the one stopping you.

Dismissed.

What truth has been distorted or hidden? Seems your primary complaint is having the truth about your decaying ideology and regime exposed.

More like they told the Truth.

Can’t have that when your state-run media is suppressing a child-incest-rapist dementia patient who was installed by a rigged election into the most powerful nation the world has ever seen.

Project veritas is just doing their job: uncovering things inconvenient to those who unelected power.

It’s called journalism, and it’s a threat to all despotic tyrannies through history, including Biden’s.

The FBI raided James O’Keefe’s apartment, seized his cell phone and other devices, and then days later the New York Times was publishing privileged legal information which appears to have been obtained from FBI leaks. The judge in the case is ordering the New York Times to defend its position before he grants the requests of O’Keefe’s legal team.
