I will also be showing up in person over the weekend to confront the people who say they are breaking the law.

We are announcing this because I want you to know I’m watching every single thing you ALL are doing.

STAY TUNED




I suppose people are going to find out whether O'Keefe is legit or not...again.

When has it not been legit?

What he does is what journalism is supposed to be.

Right. A lot of people around here disparage his work.

The waterhead posting right after you is a prime example. Does anybody legitimate here disparage his work?

I do not watch anything he does outside of 2-3 minute clips maybe a couple times a year when I’m mindlessly wasting time on the internet


That said, what is not legit about him?

In your own words, what makes his reporting not legit and not worth weighing in the slightest?

Pretty much everything O'Keefe has done would have won him a Pulitzer in the 70s or 80s when journalist gave a shite about actually uncovering stories.

Any gay man in a DEM campaign should be worried

He gives good effort. The problem is some of the things he does get overhyped as bombshells and it ends up being that he honeypotted some mid-level homo at a company or government agency. So, the effort goes nowhere. It's not all his fault, 60 Minutes used to do these types of things all of the time, I don't really consider it shady or entrapment.

Well he also targets those midlevel people who are often just clearly bullshitting and engaging in puffery on dates to sound impressive.

That's why they have to typically engage in dishonest framing with the lead up and reporting. O'Keefe has to REALLY upsell the titles and authority and what not.

Does he have people inside Paxton’s campaign? Prob would be slightly boring since the guy is avoiding any type of debating and actual campaigning though

He’s not going to answer that because he has no basis for his opinion.

He’s been told O’keefe is a fraud so he parrots that talking point. It’s the same for all the people calling Trump a racist.

It’s much easier to say (and believe) that someone is ___ and walk away rather than MAYBE confronting the realization that your thoughts and viewpoints can be challenged and change your mind.

The cognitive dissonance is real, folks

The US branch of ACORN disagrees. Or rather, they would disagree if the US organization still existed.

Why were they dissolved again? Oh yeah...

The sad reality is, OMG could have video admissions of some dem operatives admitting they are committing fraud and there's a bunch of morons that would believe it's fake and dismiss it.

I hear you but at the very least he shows these institutions are littered with people we’re concerned about.

Does he prove every conspiracy theory? No

Does he prove a shite ton of people in curious positions want to carry out the shite? Absolutely

Is he hyperbolic with the marketing? Maybe. I find his enthusiasm about what he’s uncovered WAY more intellectually honest than the people who choose to ignore him for being fake news.

I think those people are pieces of shite who only do it as a shield against certain realities.
