Project Veritas and the Undercover Investigations That Defined Its Mission

Showing 15 Project Veritas videos from Charlie Kirk's video collection.

James O'Keefe built Project Veritas around an undercover investigative journalism model. He addressed Turning Point USA's AmericaFest audience directly, demonstrating disguise techniques and recounting investigations into DEI fraud and government corruption, including how a 19-year-old college student working with the organization broke the ACORN story that mainstream outlets had missed entirely. A Hasbro engineer leaked a recorded DEI training session to Project Veritas in which presenters claimed white infants display racial bias by three months of age, a disclosure that led to his contract not being renewed months later.

Jack Posobiec used a similar investigative approach to expose financial backing behind a prominent Facebook whistleblower, tracing connections to progressive donor networks and shared public relations infrastructure. In a separate investigation, Project Veritas captured New Jersey Governor Phil Murphy's team privately discussing plans to delay disclosing vaccine mandate policies until after an election. Following Charlie Kirk's death, investigators Charles Ortel and Jason Goodman examined Turning Point USA's own financial filings, drawing comparisons to the investigative approach Project Veritas pioneered, though their specific findings about the organization remain contested and are not detailed further here.
