Report: James O’Keefe Investigated by District Attorney’s Office Amidst Ongoing Project Veritas Drama
In February, in the wake of the organization’s biggest release with the Jordon Walker Pfizer “mutating viruses” story, the Project Veritas board confronted James O’Keefe about how he treated staffers and demanded that he submit to changes. He declined and went off to start his own successful O’Keefe Media Group. The confrontation with the board started from when O’Keefe tried to fire his Chief Financial Officer Tom O’Hara. The main effort against O’Keefe was led by then-board member Matthew Tyrmand. Tyrmand organized a group of employees to sign a letter threatening to resign unless their concerns were heard and O’Keefe reprimanded.
Tyrmand had claimed to be O’Keefe’s best friend for a decade, and the planned ‘best man’ at O’Keefe’s wedding.
