I hope the former members of ACORN are enjoying a celebratory drink right now.
Misinformation machine mismanaged and in post mortem.
Rest In piss.
I love how the ppl they contacted were like “you morons fired me a month ago”.
It’s all one big grift. Millions missing.🤷♂️
[O’Keefe] … left the organization earlier this year amid allegations of improper spending of funds on personal luxuries.
Oh, I missed this. I’m shocked. Shocked and apalled.
Gosh, that’s such a shame. Sad face.
In all seriousness, it’s sad that O’Queefe has not spent some time in prison for his activities.
Or at least caught a beating or two.
“The organization used to thrive and prosper. It’s truly sad to see what can happen to great opportunities with a surplus of resources when the wrong people are in power.”
People don’t know the difference between “to thrive and prosper” versus “launder and hide” money.
Ah yes, time for the election year rebrand.
It’s good to see this blatant partisan propaganda organization go down the shitter.
Good riddance.
Rest in hell
Rest In Piss would be more appropriate but I reckon some of them might find this wish enjoyable.
Let them rot in hell where they deserve
They had journalist to let go? 🤔
They use the term loosely.
Man, this is awesome. Hopefully all involved can find honest work to do now.
Spoiler, they won’t. They’ll go work for some right wing spin propaganda company or roll out new versions of the same bad faith, likely illegal, operation.
I know… but I don’t want to celebrate people losing their jobs (unless they are CEO’s or board members of almost any corporation) - the only way I could think to do that in this situation is to hope they get a job where they can contribute to society in a positive way.
I celebrate them losing their jobs and I hope their dreams are crushed. They should suffer for all the damage they have done to civil discourse in my country. I have no sympathy at all for them.
Not even the video editor?
especially no sympathy for the video editor. If there was anyone in that organization who knows the scope of their lies, it’s the video editor. That person took raw video and intentionally filtered it into misleading lies. Fuck that person in particular.
Ok fair enough
But what about the audio editor? The only thing she or he did was mix some clutter out, cut and paste some partial sentences to *checks notes * clarify the message and maybe add some funky intro music
Stop this. You know it’s silly to defend these people and that anyone with any morality is breathing a sigh of relief they no longer have to be part of this scummy org.
No one worked for Project Veritas without buying into their mission. According to their 2021 Form 990, they had 59 employees and spent north of 6m on salaries. James okeef was the highest paid at 396k.
These people were well compensated for years to do illegal and immoral things. Do not pity them. Save that energy for the people whose lives they’ve destroyed. They got Acorn shut down, which employed a bunch of people across a lot of communities doing actual good work.
It’s OK to celebrate bad things happening to bad people. Even if you yourself don’t want to punch a Nazi, you might have a problem if one getting punched in the face makes you sad…
Don’t worry. The executives kept their jobs.
One former Project Veritas staffer said just 11 people remain on the non-profit’s payroll, including CEO Hannah Giles.
I love your attitude! Never change Scooter… ❤️
Oh no!
Anyway
May they all also contract a disease inshallah
They’ll just return under a new “untainted” name and do it all over again.
Just ask the folks at
Cambridge AnalyticaEmerdataOr the boys at “Arther Andersen,” the accounting firm in the Enron scandal, nowadays known as “Accenture”. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Arthur_Andersen
And Blackwater is forever stained with the blood of innocents. But Academi is totally fine guys.
Don’t forget they were Xe for a couple years too.
And Avalon Securities.
