PV is NOT press. It harms actual journalists when pustulent assholes like this try to shelter under their umbrella. Instead of defending them, NYT should be shoving them out into the light of scrutiny.

That doesnāt usually happen unless thereās some national security issue; like being compromised by Putin. Or theyāre involved in Some sort of Gaetz type of business.

It seems more than just a diary theft.
The ACLU says that while Project Veritas are the scum of the Earth, the DOJ should proceed carefully.

All these things can be true: the DOJ must have and be seen to have the highest possible care and consideration for investigating anything which even looks like it might be journalism.
But also, Project Veritas isnāt even cosplaying as journalism. Itās straight out running a fascist propaganda factory and baldface lying about it when itās pointed out, with a āmethinks the lady doth protest too muchā performative outrage at the mere suggestion.

āUnless the government had good reason to believe that Project Veritas employees were directly involved in the criminal theft of the diaryā
It wouldnāt be the first time they were involved in criminal activity. Or plead guilty to it.

Whatever comes of this, getting arrested in his underwear is the kind of expose I can get behind.

There are easily enough Texans to elect an obvious moron to the AG post. The evidence is the number of Texans who keep sending an objectively repulsive slimeball to represent them in the U.S. Senate again and again (and of course the number of Texans who decided that Americaās foremost public confidence artist would make a suitable POTUS).

To be fair, we know that the state put its fingers on the scale for republicans. Texas isnāt nearly as closely divided as GA politically, but itās getting there. Itās closer than most people think. They have to cheat because itās coming close to them being unable to win with their lack of ideas and open bigotry.
