“Project Veritas” founder and CEO James O’Keefe has left the company he founded after a group of his staff reportedly tried to oust him.
O’Keefe was put on paid leave as the organization’s board considered whether they would oust him. Employees had been dissatisfied by O’Keefe’s management and alleged he wasted money and was “outright cruel” to his staff, according to the The Daily Beast.
O’Keefe announced to his staff Monday that he was ousted as CEO and from the board in an emotional 15-minute video.

Project Veritas was James O'Keefe. Without him, it is dead. They will all be unemployed within a few days.

Going forward, there will be two things to watch: Project Veritas and James O'Keefe. Should be interesting.

I just listened to his 45 minute talk with the employees, before packing up his personal items.
Clearly the organization was infiltrated by those who do not share their goals.
I just emailed them asking to be removed from their mailing list.
I had just sent a check last week, after the Pfizer story - the biggest story in the history of Project Veritas.
Odd timing for sure!

I pray O'Keefe was not forced to sign a non-compete agreement, that he goes out and starts another project, and that these board members experience the pain and humiliation of their error as Project Veritas sinks into insolvency.

So, Project Veritas is dead. O'Keefe will found a new organization, and Project Veritas will shrivel and wither.
Their credibility is GONE.

Too often, the Board of an organization veers from the founders ideals and goals, doesn't like the founders "style", and moves in their own direction. This new direction is, most often, detrimental to the organization. When the founder pushes back, saying that the Board's actions are not a smart move and will lead to gloom and doom for the company, the Board pushes back harder and removes the founder for not following the wishes of the Board. The founder is then replaced with more compliant leader and staff who lead the organization to a quick death (within a year) and the Board and staff are left wondering what happened. This will happen with Project Veritas.

Let's see these upstarts try and solicit enough donations to pay their own salaries for more than a few months. This outfit is toast.

"Project Veritas" is just a name. James O'Keefe was the company and the mission.

Project Veritas - DOA. James O'Keefe alive, well and starting over. Like the Phoenix, O'Keefe will rise again.

D’rats are masters of infiltrating Republican institutions, e.g., RNC and the Republican consultant and strategist class.

Project (Pfizer-corrupted) Veritas. Amazing what you can do with billions of dollars. Next, some woman out of nowhere will claim he "raped' her. They will hound him like the curs they are.

Someone got to the board of directors and assured them they would be swimming with the fishes if they don’t get rid of him. He can now go out on his own and keep doing what he has been doing only better.

Exactly, #1. I'm sure that was the idea.

This article does not describe the maneuvers. O'Keefe was accused by board members of inter alia using PV funds for a downpayment on his wedding. O'Keefe is not married. That was rubbish. Board members also wanted him to solicit donors and (if I understand right) do investigative journalism by Zoom meetings instead of in person. That is the level of the accusations made. Two days after the Pfizer video, hell rained down on him, and it largely did not make sense. His goodbye speech to staff is posted by Lara Logan on Twitter. 45m very well worth it. He is going to start over.

I pray all the informants follow him to whatever new organization he starts! And he needs to do it soon! Project Veritas just got re-named Project Non-Veritas! James O'Keefe was the organization. The trust these informants had was in him...not the currently corrupted board!
I was getting ready to send money like #4 did. Glad I waited! I'll be amongst the first to donate to his new organization. Sadly, if I had to make a bet, he will never again be a tax deductible organization. Doesn't matter! I'll donate anyway!

matt tyrmnd et al - you exposed yrself as running dog scum. go to blazes.
donors--pls consider stop payment on yr donations; perhaps redirect in the
interim to an honest decnt fund raiser site--not the ones exposed as shams
over the past year.
i hope the real deal--james o.-- will expose pv' s subversion loudly-daily-
whilst setting up his 'new improved parasite free' warrior vision--
without the need for snowflakes, slags, or treacherous overlords.
james, you are veritas.

O'Keefe could get a job with Judicial Watch. Tom Fenton recognizes good talent and political savvy.

The Pfizer story comes out, and suddenly O'Keefe is gone. It looks like the FBI has been paying Project Veritas management a visit.

I wonder if the 30 pieces of silver to take out O'Keefe was worth it?

Re: #1 And James will start another company just like Project Veritas which will flourish without all the jealous, backstabbing harpies from the original company.
