or actual plans for future ones. Lol. This tweet is definitely meant to begin damage control. He's not about to admit they talked about quite different plans from just "investigating" commie "agitprop" Soros associates.

Thanks, kpete.

that rw talk radio was attacking ACORN for a decade before that as part of the republican effort to suppress voting and steal elections around the country

then okeefe's video sot sold on rw radio and fox and was used as ammo by the gop in congress and to intimidate asshole blue dog dems and media. even after it was exposed as a fraud it had already been pounded into the earholes of tens of millions and become fact/true because the left ignores rw radio

David Inglesias found no reason to persue (right before the 2002 midterm) which got him not-a-GOOD-Republican markings on proud Regents Law grad Monica Goodling's white board. Inglesias got fired in 2005.

Inglesias, BTW, was the basis for Lt. Chaffee (Tom Cruise) in A Few Good Men. He was the JAG on Guam. The was a brutal rape of a female airman (I think it was Air Force) by a group. Aaron Sorkin's sister happened to be stationed there so he knew of the story and wrote a play moving the setting to Marines at Gitmo. That was the beginning of his career basically.

In his warped way of thinking, he might see this as a way to puff up the importance of his sophomoric meandering projects.

This is why I still use a flip phone, I'm paranoid about having my Machiavellian rat-fuckery unravelled by my own forgetfulness.

...... this sack of shit to the ends of the earth. i wouldn't give him one minute of peace. Lawsuits would only be the start. Go after his support structure buy it pieces by piece. strip it if it's assets. Have him followed and harassed were ever possible. Having money is what could easily make his life miserable. It would be my goal.

What type of criminal charges could be filed? Isn't it illegal to conspire in such a way?

is that the only source is O'Keefe himself. I don't know what he would gain by making this up, but that's the most likely thing imo.
