RICHMOND — More than a week before an ex-CIA agent who is running as a Democrat for Congress unmasked a mole inside her campaign, a Virginia Republican Party official tweeted that the conservative Project Veritas had planted spy there.
“Can the spy ... detect a spy?” Mark Hile, a member of the GOP’s governing board, said in anOct. 22 tweet .
More than a dozen similar tweets followed, suggesting an “undercover reporter” had infiltrated the campaign of Abigail Spanberger, who is challenging Rep. Dave Brat in Virginia’s 7th Congressional District. Hile repeatedly mentioned Project Veritas, a New York-based group known for undercover “sting” videos.
“Is @JamesOKeefeIII of @Project_Veritas going to show up today to ask Team @SpanbergerVA07 about the undercover video they have of them lying about her being a moderate?” Hile wrote Wednesday morning. That afternoon, he tweeted about a Project Veritas expose targeting a Florida Democrat and wrote, “Virginia 7th District will be next. Heads up Team @SpanbergerVA07!”
Later that afternoon, Spanberger’s team confronted a young woman who had been posing as a campaign volunteer but had been trying to collect embarrassing information for Project Veritas. The organization’s founder, James O’Keefe, released two videos shot surreptitiously from inside Spanberger headquarters.
Can we throw these fuckers in prison yet?
epic trol face :D :D

Democrat says Project Veritas infiltrated her campaign in Va.’s tight 7th District
RICHMOND — A conservative group that creates undercover “sting” videos infiltrated the campaign of Abigail Spanberger, a Democrat in a tight race with Rep. Dave Brat in Virginia’s 7th District.
The campaign said a young woman working for Project Veritas posed as a Democratic volunteer and spent every day over the past several weeks in Spanberger’s suburban Richmond campaign office, performing basic office tasks — and peppering her office mates with questions that eventually raised red flags.
Campaign staffers on Wednesday confronted her and asked her to leave, a video released by the campaign shows.
“Dirty tricks like these are the worst part of politics, and this is exactly what Abigail is running to change,” Spanberger’s campaign manager, Dana Bye, said in an email. “We are proud of the campaign we have run, and wonder if Congressman Brat and his allies can say the same. While others may scrape the bottom of the barrel out of desperation, Abigail and our campaign will remain focused on talking to our neighbors on their doorsteps about the issues that matter to our community — that’s the campaign voters deserve and it’s the campaign that we believe will carry us to victory.”
This shit shouldn't be legal, organizing a network of spy volunteers with intentions to sabotage political campaigns.
Republican's seem utterly morally bankrupt
