In a bombshell of Totally Journalistic Proportions, James O'Keefe this week revealed that politician Claire McCaskill, a sitting U.S. senator, is actually a Democrat. In Missouri.
That startling conclusion arises from a series of hidden-camera videos released by O'Keefe's Project Veritas Action[1]. It is the latest instance of the self-styled "guerrilla journalist" engineering an undercover sting operation with the purpose of embarrassing liberal politicians ... and not, shall we add, his most compelling work.
In this case, O'Keefe sets his sights on McCaskill, who took office in 2006 and was reelected in 2012 after her opponent Todd Akin said some breathtakingly ignorant stuff about "legitimate rape." Now she's facing Missouri Attorney General Josh Hawley in a race that's too close to call. But O'Keefe calls it like he sees it — or at least, calls it like he wants it to be seen.
Indeed, after watching video's sixteen pulse-pounding minutes, it's clear that O'Keefe has the straight scoop on McCaskill: She's a Democrat trying to win an election in a state in which 56 percent of voters chose Trump. Stop the presses!
The video opens with a shot of the Project Veritas Action logo — a design[2] that includes no less than three different fonts and two instances of an "O" cleverly
