The timing of this story couldn’t be more suspicious. Here’s why – Project Veritas founder and chairman, James O’Keefe, has been placed on paid leave from the organization after an internal memo from his employees was released to The Daily Beast. So, why is the timing oddly coincidental?
This memo comes just a couple of weeks after O’Keefe, along with an undercover journalist, exposed Pfizer by secretly filming their director of research, Jordon Trishton Walker arrogantly spouting that the company is actively discussing “mutating” the Covid-19 virus through directed evolution. In return, they would “preemptively develop new vaccines” for the new mutation.
Project Veritas posted this tweet, exposing Pfizer:
BREAKING: @Pfizer Exploring "Mutating" COVID-19 Virus For New Vaccines
"Don't tell anyone this…There is a risk…have to be very controlled to make sure this virus you mutate doesn't create something…the way that the virus started in Wuhan, to be honest."#DirectedEvolution pic.twitter.com/xaRvlD5qTo

According to the memo, employees have allegedly complained about O’Keefe’s behavior towards his employees, claiming that working for him at Project Veritas could mean being “publicly humiliated” and result in “public crucifixions.”
Allegations continue with claims that working in Project Veritas sometimes requires employees to undergo lie detector tests, and that O’Keefe is a “power drunk tyrant,” (according to one complaint). Claims also include the chairman using funds generated by Project Veritas to boost his own theatrical interests.
The chairman’s position is being considered for removal as the organization comes to an agreement to either keep O’Keefe in his leadership position or let him go.
Project Vertias’ executive director, Daniel Strack released a statement on behalf of the organization stating, “Like all newsrooms at this stage, the Project Veritas Board of Directors and Management are constantly evaluating what the best path forward is for the organization.” He continues, “There are 65+ employees at Project Veritas dedicated to continuing the mission to expose corruption, dishonesty, waste, fraud, and other misconduct in both public and private institutions,” the statement read. “To our supporters: We hear you, we care about you, and we will never give up.”
Credible journalism is all about exposing the truth – that is what this specific organization built its stance on. But it would be foolish not to question why such allegations have been brought up at a time when the chairman has exposed the multi-billion-dollar company. One thing we know for sure is that without the unapologetic and fearless reporting James O’Keefe and his journalists have repeatedly delivered, there would be no Project Veritas.
This makes it of the utmost importance to get James O’Keefe on the podcast. I am sick of seeing founders removed from their own companies.
