O’Rourke Staffers Caught Red-Handed, Being Compassionate
Career liar and all-round dirtbag James O’Keefe is at it again. His ironically named company Project Veritas, which has actually nothing to do with Veritas (truth), released another of his highly edited and misleading undercover videos, this time accusing staffers working for Beto O’Rourke using campaign fund to buy…wait for it…diapers and baby food for a legal charity in El Paso to help immigrants stuck there. In his normal hyperbolic style, O’Keefe ominously narrates the highly edited video to mislead people into believing that something illegal was going on, which, of course, was a lie. O’Keefe is well known for blatant lying and law-breaking while trying to trap people into compromising situations to make them look bad. The tactic works only with people who agree with him, and sometimes, like in the case of the community service organization, ACORN, the lies work. The vast majority of the time, though, his fiction draws laughter and derision.
This video is one of his silliest, where O’Keefe accuses Beto’s staffers of illegally helping charities who help immigrant refugees. There is certainly nothing wrong with their activities, and certainly not illegal. Predictably, right wingers went nuts crying foul and demanding an investigation. Cruz is being all sniffy on Twitter about it, lapped up by his sycophants. More fun to whip up outrage over a fake issue rather than defend his own record.
This kind of dishonest “reporting” in which O’Keefe engages is a cancer. Funded by big right wingers allows that cancer to metastasize, widening the gap between truth and manure. O’Keefe is over his eyeballs in manure, and his work shows it.
El Jefe, O’Keefe presents a bit of a conundrum for the fundy evangelicals supporting Dotard45. Where in their scriptures are acts of decency or charity put to a pigmentation or melanin test?
We seriously need more creative judges. While it’s fiscally improvident to continuously jail miscreants like O’Keefe, D’Souza and their ilk, life time bans from social media and recording devices should be considered.
1I know I’ve said it before, but the most dangerous aspect of Donnie Douchebag is illustrated with this. His constant attacks on the fourth estate drive more and more people to listen to this kinda garbage. He wasn’t the first one to brand mainstream media as liberal, but he’s definitely benefited from the groundwork laid down for decades. And the damage done will be with us long after the Golgothan is gone.
2I will never understand why O’Keefe hasn’t been sued into oblivion. He is the quintessential republican.
3Someday, I hope O’Keefe and his financial supporters end up in a chain link cage. One day for every lie.
4IIRC, Ms. JJ’s neighbor, that woman who is president of the Belles of Heaven Republican women’s club has a grand daughter who was in on the Acorn mess. Employees sued her and were awarded 250K. Him, too, though the judgement was less. Somebody else is after him, too. But the backers are gonna have to pay more than 100K to shut him up.
5Oozy Croozy got jammed, but good. Bwahahahahahahaha!!!!!

6Saw 4th suit filed against trogalyt racist knuckle dragger by Bubba’s law firm.
Congratulations.
It appears by the lack of blittering nonsense from the nitwit that he is running scared.
No mercy. No prisoners. Take him for every penny and throw him into debtors prison when it isn’t enough to satisfy the settlement.
7It has been awhile since I have seen a photo of James O’Keefe (I have been living a good life)–but I remember when he first came to national notice.
Then I wrote that if I was a Hollywood casting director I would cast O’Keefe as the crooked jockey who drugs all the other jockeys’ horses so he can “win” the race.
8Debbo – I’m confused. The only thing at the link is a photo of a young woman (with a cast iron stomach) standing next to Rafael and smiling. What’s the backstory?
9Dang it! I know that thugs like Donnie Jr point to such behavior as a example of socialism (ooh! bad stuff!) whereas me and mine point to it as an example of Christianity. That is exactly how far apart we are from the folks who prefer to live on the unlit side of the moon!
10Somebody misspelled ‘ratf*cker’.
I have no idea why he wasn’t remanded to jail for the rest of his life after some of his escapades while still on probation.
