Losing It All, And Building It All Back: Live at AmFest with James O’Keefe

Well, what happened was that we broke a story on Pfizer late January 2023 right after Elon bought Twitter. So I just got back on Twitter. By the grace of God, I just got back on Twitter. And then we break the story. Biggest story ever. It was viewed like more times than like the World Cup videos. It was like hundreds of millions of people. What was in this video?

And in this video, the Pfizer mRNA director of scientific research, not a low-level guy, high-level executive, Yale-educated doctor, he was on type saying, this product is no good for the consumers. We tested on monkeys. We came up with the virus in China, the Wuhan lab. He's saying all these things. And he says to our undercover reporter, I think he's on a gay date or something.

He says, don't tell this to anybody. To which our undercover reporter said, could you just say that again just the way you said it? We got this on tape. I confronted the guy, and then he takes my iPad and he smashes it on the ground, falsely imprisons me inside of a restaurant. It was so crazy.

So we released that video, and then, Charlie, what happened was – and I'll give you some specific details. I think they're going to make a movie out of this one day, what happened to me, and there's depositions and lawsuit ongoing – Three days later, I get a call from my chief financial officer, Project Veritas, an emergency meeting to remove me as chief executive officer from the organization.

They had a six-hour emergency board meeting where they tried to get me to lose my temper. I did not. And then they, quote, indefinitely suspended me without pay. So that's what happened, and you can draw your own conclusions from that.

Bobby Kennedy, I went hiking with him a week after that, and I won't share exactly what he said to me, but he invited me to go hiking in the Santa Monica Mountains, which he does every morning with his dogs, and he said something to the effect of, you don't realize who you're dealing with. You go after Pfizer like you just did. Pfizer had to put out a statement.

He said, you're going after the Defense Department. You're going after powerful people. And they have, as Chuck Schumer said, six ways to Sunday to get back at you. And these people play really dirty. And I think it taught me about human nature. And by the way, this man is a good man.

I didn't know you incredibly well, but when this happened to me, which is the darkest moment of my life, Charlie would call me every day. He didn't have to do that. And text me, how are you doing, and send me prayers. I got to know you better than... And I'm very grateful for your friendship and support during that time.

Well, I think, as I said on the main stage, that it is a fight that's internal. It's a choice that we all have to make. Telling the truth in a time of universal deceit is a revolutionary act. It's not easy. It sounds easy to just tell the truth. You face retaliation.

You face – I think right now, over the next nine months, you have an opportunity to do this where hopefully you won't be as targeted as you otherwise would have been a year ago. So I think the pendulum is swinging. I think we all feel it in the culture, right, in the politics. Everything's swinging. But it might swing back. So we have to all step up right now.
