O'Keefe and Veritas.

They have been found to have lied multiple times.

'Both O'Keefe and Project Veritas have produced secretly recorded 
undercover audio and video encounters in academic, governmental, and 
social service organizations, purporting to show abusive or illegal 
behavior by representatives of those organizations; the recordings are 
often selectively edited to misrepresent the context of the 
conversations and the subjects' responses.'

'O'Keefe first gained national attention for his selectively edited 
video recordings of workers at Association of Community Organizations 
for Reform Now (ACORN) offices in 2009, his arrest and misdemeanor 
guilty plea in 2010 for entering the federal office of then-U.S. Senator 
Mary Landrieu (D-LA) under false pretenses, and the release of 
misleading videos of conversations with two high-ranking, now former, 
NPR executives in 2011.'

'Shortly thereafter, the California State Attorney General's Office and 
the US Government Accountability Office (GAO) released their related 
investigative reports. The Attorney General's Office found that O'Keefe 
had misrepresented the actions of ACORN workers in California and that 
the workers had not broken any laws. A preliminary probe by the GAO 
found that ACORN had managed its federal funds appropriately. One of the 
fired ACORN workers sued O'Keefe for invasion of privacy; O'Keefe issued 
an apology and agreed to pay $100,000 in a settlement.'

Not enough? Okay!

'In August 2010, O'Keefe planned a staged encounter with the CNN 
correspondent Abbie Boudreau, who was doing a documentary on the young 
conservative movement. He set up an appointment at his office in 
Maryland to discuss a video shoot.[219] Izzy Santa, executive director 
of Project Veritas, approached Boudreau when she arrived at the site. 
Santa warned Boudreau that O'Keefe was planning to meet with her on 
board a nearby boat, where he would try to seduce Boudreau. This would 
be filmed on hidden cameras.[219][220] Boudreau did not board the boat 
and soon left the area.

CNN later published a 13-page plan written by O'Keefe mentor Ben 
Wetmore. It listed props for the boat scheme, including pornography, 
sexual aids, condoms, a blindfold and "fuzzy" handcuffs.[219][220][221] 
When questioned by CNN, O'Keefe denied he was going to follow the 
Wetmore plan, as he found parts of it inappropriate.[220] Boudreau 
commented "that does not appear to be true, according to a series of 
emails we obtained from Izzy Santa, who says the e-mails reveal James' 
true intentions."[222]

Following the Boudreau incident, Project Veritas paid Izzy Santa a 
five-figure settlement after she threatened to sue, which included a 
nondisclosure agreement.[223]'

'Attempt to solicit Colorado voter fraud (2014)
In October 2014, O'Keefe and his two colleagues attempted to bait 
staffers for Congressman Jared Polis (D-CO) and then-U.S. Senator Mark 
Udall (D-CO), as well as independent expenditure organizations, into 
approving voter fraud, according to several staffers who interacted with 
O'Keefe and his colleagues. Staffers began photographing O'Keefe's crew 
and advising them that what they were advocating was illegal; one 
nonprofit said they contacted police.[224]

The 2013 Colorado election modernization act had required that all 
registered voters receive mail-in ballots. PV released a video showing a 
few individuals appearing to be OK with illegal suggestions PV's people 
proffered, e.g. finding and voting discarded ballots. But no evidence of 
illegal activity was shown.[224][225][226]'

Why would anyone believe a thing Project Veritas has to say on any subject?
