YouTube Description

as posted by the channel

Mikhaila hosts Project Veritas founder and CEO James O’Keefe. Project Veritas is a group of undercover journalists tackling corruption (corporations, government...) via incriminating video footage that is released, untampered, for the public to decide for themselves. James is a polarizing public figure, gaining a fair share of detractors that accuse him of being little more than a political provocateur.

Mikhaila and James cover his ban from Twitter on false information grounds, the FBI raiding his house, famous situations in undercover journalism, voter fraud in the US, DARPA, the shift in modern journalism, the target on James’ back given his line of work, ongoing feud with The NY Times, and much more.
