Investigative journalist James O’Keefe released a bombshell undercover video this week that reveals the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) working against President Trump while he was in the White House. Mainstream media, however, has assumed a deafening silence over the revelation.
On April 26, O’Keefe hinted that he is working on releasing the most important story of his entire career and that it was likely the reason he was being subjected to “an endless series of attacks.” He wrote on Twitter/X:
“I have evidence that exposes the CIA, and it’s on camera. I am working on releasing a story that I believe is the most important of my entire career. Do you think it’s a coincidence that right at this moment I am subject to an endless series of attacks?”
On Wednesday (May 1), James O’Keefe took to Twitter/X to post the video he had talked of releasing. The undercover video shows Amjad Fseisi, a former CIA Cyber Operations manager and a contractor for the National Security Agency (NSA), telling how the top leadership of the CIA withheld information from President Trump because they didn’t trust the president. O’Keefe’s post said:
Amjad Fseisi, is caught on undercover cameras implicating the highest levels of the intelligence agencies, including “The executive staff. We’re talking about the director and his subordinates,” former CIA Directors “Gina Haspel….And I believe Mike Pompeo did the same thing too,” “kept information from him [Trump] because we knew he’d fucking disclose it.”
Not surprisingly, the mainstream media has categorically ignored the revealing video and O’Keefe’s postings related to it. On Twitter/X, his post with the video has been viewed nearly 10 million times in two days.
The video has sparked strong reactions from many conservatives on social media and even from some in the government. Popular conservative voice on social media DC Darino wrote that this video raises more questions including the possible role of the CIA in impeaching President Trump and stealing the 2020 election.
Investigative journalist Lara Logan, a conservative, wrote that this video explains the attacks on O’Keefe and added:
“Watching this you realize how much Pompeo has to answer for – and he’s not the only one.”
Following the release of the video, Republican Congressman Matt Gaetz of Florida on Wednesday called on the Weaponization Subcommittee of the House for an immediate investigation into this “bombshell report.” On Twitter/X page, Congressman Gaetz posted a scan of his letter on this issue to the Subcommittee’s chairman Jim Jordan.
As shared by O’Keefe, a CIA spokesperson denied Fseisi’s statements in the undercover video, calling them “absolutely false and ridiculous.” Her statement said:
“The individual making these allegations is a former contractor who does not represent CIA.”
