How to Self-Destruct

The Washington Post on Monday night published a detailed account of an apparent attempt to deceive Post reporters into believing a made-up story of a woman who says she had an abortion after Roy Moore, who is now the GOP Senate nominee in Alabama, impregnated her when she was 15. The woman was seen walking into the headquarters Monday morning of Project Veritas, a political operation that employs deceptive tactics in attempts to embarrass journalists and expose alleged bias.

O'Keefe essentially just neutered his organization by allowing this ill-conceived, dishonest and clumsy operation to proceed. They've done some good work in the past but this is the one "Aw shit" that will erase all the"attaboys" and make Veritas a target for Alinsky Rule 5 ridicule from now on.

UPDATE: See what Project Veritas is saying.

You’re assuming that this woman actually works for O’Keefe. What if she doesn’t? The proggies are certainly not above a double-false-flag operation. This woman’s stupidity seems unusually exaggerated.

True-- I've been influenced by lack of denial, but will post a link to the PV Twitter feed.
