And note-- O'Keefe is in a lawsuit with the New York Times.
The FBI launched a political raid on Project Veritas' offices, and the personal homes of James O'Keefe and his reporters -- with battering rams at the ready -- and then not only seized his private, confidential, protected communications with counsel, but then immediately leaked them to the corporation they are politically allied with whom James O'Keefe is suing.
The New York Times immediately ran a hit piece which they intend to help their court case, claiming that James O'Keefe talked to his lawyers about how to avoid breaking the law in his sting operations. In other words -- he sought legal advice as to how to... act lawfully while committing acts of non-state-approved journalism.
By the way, if you're going to secretly record anyone, you must consult a lawyer -- or at least understand the law keenly yourself -- to know if you are in a one-party or two-party consent state. If you're in a two-party consent state, you cannot record someone without their permission.
So yes -- you need a lawyer to advise you of such matters.
The New York Times -- again, being sued by James O'Keefe and Project Veritas in a case that the courts refuse to dismiss, which is going to trial -- spins this as "James O'Keefe has a long history of using lawyers' advice to help him skirt the law," or that sort of terminology.
The NYT, who themselves literally have an entire law firm on retainer to advise them in such matters, casts mere consultation with lawyers as some kind of shady criminal conspiracy.
And this was leaked to them by the FBI, after an illegal, political raid.
And these raids are all about Joe Biden directing the FBI to harass anyone who had contact with... his druggie self-confessed nymphomaniac daughter's lost diary! Something the federal law enforcement agencies have absolutely no jurisdiction over!
This.
Is.
Not.
America.
Not anymore.
This is straight-up fascism.
This cannot go on much longer.
And what cannot go on, will not.
A court has ordered the FBI to stop extracting data from James O'Keefe's phones. Perhaps some judges and government officials are not yet part of the fascist takeover of what was once America.
Here's the NYT, "talking its book," prepping the jury pool with the gift it got from its buddies at the Democrat Armed Enforcement Squad at the DOJ:
Mark Mazzetti @MarkMazzettiNYT Project Veritas has long occupied a gray area between investigative journalism and political spying, and documents reveal how much the group has worked with lawyers to gauge how far its practices can go before breaking the law. W/@adamgoldmanNYT

You people belong in Gitmo.
Will Chamberlain @willchamberlain If the New York Times has these memorandums -- why wouldn't it also have PV's privileged communications that relate directly to PV's lawsuit against the Times?
This is just a massive, massive scandal
Sean Davis @seanmdav The FBI is a corrupt, criminal organization that has no valid reason for existing.
I went to follow Drew Hernandez -- the videographer and commentator who appeared at the trial yesterday as a surprise (?) witness -- and I found, happily, that I was already following him.
Here's his advice:
Drew Hernandez @DrewHLive Pay attention to so called conservatives/patriots that don't report on James O'Keefe being targeted by the FBI
Excellent advice.
Though I'm pretty sure I can predict the entire list.
And they're not conservative. They're Conservative, Inc., and they're liberal grifters.
I think he might be talking about fed plants, though.
Defund the FBI.
Disband it.
Start a new agency.
Follow Malone's rules -- if the barrel is filled with rotten apples, pick fresh apples off the tree.
