James O’Keefe strikes again!
Project Veritas just dropped bombshell undercover video of CNN Producer John Bonifield admitting the Trump-Russia story is B.S. but they continue to push the false narrative for ‘ratings’.
O’Keefe teased his Twitter followers on Monday by sending out a cryptic tweet saying, “Independence Day is approaching, but this year the fireworks come early.”

James O’Keefe released part one of his ‘American Pravda’ series with CNN. O’Keefe says his goal is to expose the real motivation behind the decision making process in our dominant media corporation. The Russia story has dominated CNN. Since the inauguration, CNN has mentioned Russia on air nearly 16,000 times.
P.V. Journalist: “So you believe the Russia thing is a little crazy, right?”
John Bonifield (CNN Producer): “Even if Russian was trying to swing an election, we try to swing their elections, our CIA is doing **** all the time, we’re out there trying to manipulate governments. You win because you know the game, you play it right. She (Hillary) didn’t play it right.”
PV Journalist: “Then why is CNN constantly like Russia this, Russia that?”
John Bonifield: “Because it’s ratings. Our ratings are incredible right now.”
Bonifield went on to say that the CEO of CNN, Jeff Zucker demanded that his news channel get back to the ratings winner that Russia is for CNN.
Bonifield laughed off the notion that the media has an ethical responsibility and said ‘it’s a business’ and ‘they gotta what they gotta do to make money’.
PV Journalist: “But honestly, you think the whole Russia **** is just ******** right?”
Bonifield: “Could be ********. I mean it’s mostly ******** right now. Like, we don’t have any big giant proof.”
Bonifield went on to say that if there was proof that the Russia story is real, we would know about it by now because of all the leaks. He said that he doesn’t feel like they have anything, but they want to just keep digging.
Shockingly, Bonifield actually took Trump’s side and said, “I think the President is probably right to say, like, look, you are witch-hunting me. You have no smoking gun, you have no real proof.”

Project Veritas? Don't make me laugh. Considering that it's the same Breitbart-Steve Bannon funded group that was discredited for its fake videos of ACORN - resulting in an apology and a $100,000 settlement - Planned Parenthood, and other fake videos, I wouldn't believe this video is authentic unless the producer was required to allocute to it in court. One out of about every dozen of O'Keefe's videos is not fake.
LMAO. The video speaks for itself as did the Planned Parenthood video (PP hired a firm to prove the video was altered, it was not). CNN knows the Russia story is bogus but pushing it for ratings. But they are destroying their brand in the process.
A Planned Parenthood-commissioned analysis of the undercover videos recently released by The Center for Medical Progress found no “substantive” manipulation of footage.
Planned Parenthood hired Fusion GPS — a Democratic opposition research firm — to perform a forensic analysis of the videos in an apparent effort to back up its claim they’re “highly edited.” The footage shows top Planned Parenthood doctors discussing fetal tissue harvesting, and images of staff dissecting fetuses.
The analysts found evidence of some edits, such as cuts or skips in the footage, but little to suggest CMP tampered with the footage in any meaningful way, and zero evidence of audio manipulation.
“This analysis did not reveal widespread evidence of substantive video manipulation,” the report concludes, “but we did identify cuts, skips, missing tape, and changes in camera angle.”
Planned Parenthood sent a letter containing the findings to House Republicans last week — warning the edits make the footage useless in court — and media outlets such as The New York Times and Vox seized on the report.
“Planned Parenthood Videos Were Altered,” a NYTimes headline read. And from Vox: “I thought I saw all the Planned Parenthood sting footage. Turns out the tapes were edited.”
In a detailed response to the report, CMP said the missing footage identified in the report was presented to law enforcement and investigators, but cut from publicly released footage to “protect the actors.” CMP added that the cuts are a combination of bathroom breaks, waiting time between meetings and logistical discussions between the undercover actors.
CMP attributed some of the cuts identified in the report to human error, and published a missing 30 minute segment from one of the videos onlineMonday.
“Planned Parenthood’s recent pseudoscientific, paid analysis of CMP videotapes by a political opposition research firm is a poor attempt to distract from the serious admissions of Planned Parenthood leadership in the videos,” CMP wrote in a letter to Congress Monday.
