re: O'Keefe Has People Inside Midterm Campaigns Across the Country...

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.

So he’s basically just interviewing people, under the guise of a date, who are eager to carry out some of the heinous things they claim on said dates? And they’re things CTs have been predicting?

I think you’re downplaying some of these people’s positions. That’s not to say they’re wildly powerful.

Work with me here as I can’t remember any specific scenarios.

But it would go something like folks on the right think some gov program is targeting republicans in vile ways.

James gets dinner with a subject and to sound cool, the subject says “absofrickinglutely we target those piece of shite republicans.”

And then you’re like, no biggie?
