Late Monday Project Veritas, a conservative activist organization, dropped a series of videos exposing the underhanded tactics of liberal political operatives, which has already has led to people losing their jobs. “Tonight, a rare look inside the dark side of politics,” reported Fox News’ Bret Baier Tuesday on Special Report, “A conservative group is shining some light on how pro-Hillary Clinton forces at least plotted to circumvent election law and disrupt events for Donald Trump often inciting violence.” In obvious spite of these actual bombshells, all of the “Big Three” networks blacked out the revelations.
“In its latest pair of videos, Project Veritas Action the controversial conservative group that uses hidden cameras to document alleged misconduct by progressive organizations targets the satellite groups orbiting the democratic national committee and the Hillary Clinton campaign,” stated Fox News Chief Washington Correspondent James Rosen.
In one of the videos, Scott Foval the national field director for Americans United for Change can be heard admitting to inciting violence at Donald Trump rallies, “What I call it is conflict engagement… Conflict engagement in, in the lines at Trump rallies. We’re starting anarchy here.” Foval has since been terminated by American United for Change, one of the first heads to roll.
According to Rosen’s report, Foval also admitted to being a “hub” for communication between parties that are legally prohibited from doing so. “The campaigns and the DNC cannot go near Priorities [USA], but I guaran-[bleep]-tee you that the people who run the super PACs all talk to each other and we and a few other people are the hubs of that communication,” Foval says.
Also on video, Bob Creamer the founder and head of Democracy Partners is caught admitting that Hillary Clinton herself was aware of the actions of groups like his and Foval’s. “In a statement, Bob Creamer said he is stepping back from his campaign work so as not to become a distraction,” Rosen said. With such damning evidence against Clinton, it’s no wonder the networks failed to cover it.
Instead of covering the highly explosive video evidence of liberal election shenanigans, superficial ABC seriously decided that the first ever three way tie on The Price is Right deserved a news brief lasting 26 seconds on World News Tonight.
Interestingly, the only network news outlet to report on the video was Spanish-language network Univision. “A liberal civic organization apparently fired one of its members after he appeared in a video talking about strategies to infiltrate Donald Trump's political rallies,” anchor Maria Elena Salinas told Univision viewers, “The group Americans United for Change fired Scott Foval following the appearance of the video, which was secretly filmed by conservative activist James O'Keefe.” Univision’s coverage represents a surprising signal of at least some course correction and editorial independence, following WikiLeaks e-mails exposing the network's close relationship to the Clinton campaign.

6:06:20 PM EasternBRET BAIER: Tonight, a rare look inside the dark side of politics. A conservative group is shining some light on how pro-Hillary Clinton forces at least plotted to circumvent election law and disrupt events for Donald Trump often inciting violence. The Project Veritas videos are getting a lot of attention online and throughout social media and they have now led to two democratic operatives losing their jobs. Chief Washington Correspondent James Rosen has our report.
[Cuts to video]
SCOTT FOVAL: What I call it is conflict engagement.
PVA JOURNALIST: That’s, that’s your, that’s your version of re-enfranchisement.
FOVAL: Conflict engagement in, in the lines at Trump rallies. We’re starting anarchy here.
JAMES ROSEN: In its latest pair of videos, Project Veritas Action the controversial conservative group that uses hidden cameras to document alleged misconduct by Progressive organizations targets the satellite groups orbiting the democratic national committee and the Hillary Clinton campaign. A key figure in the videos is Bob Creamer founder and head of Democracy Partners, a liberal political consulting firm who in the 90’s pleaded guilty of two felony counts of tax violations and bank fraud. Another key figure, Scott Foval national field director for Americans United for Change, another liberal activist group where Creamer is a general consultant.
FOVAL: We were contracted directly at the DNC and the campaign both.
PVA JOURNALIST: Yeah.
FOVAL: I am contacted him. But I answer to the head of special events, to the DNC, and head of special events and political for the campaign.
ROSEN: Foval who’s firing was announced by American United for Change late Monday night is seen describing his hiring of paid agitators including the mentally ill to provoke fistfights at Trump rallies and role in circumventing federal election laws that prohibit contact between campaigns and super PACs like the pro-Clinton Priorities USA.
FOVAL: The campaigns and the DNC cannot go near Priorities, but I guaran-[bleep]-tee you that the people who run the super PACs all talk to each other and we and a few other people are the hubs of that communication.
The thing that we have to watch is making sure there is a double blind between the actual campaign and the actual DNC and what we’re doing. There’s a double blind there. So they can plausibly deny that they knew anything about it.
…
ROSEN: In a second video, Veritas purported to capture a lawyer named Cesar Vargas, strategist for Bernie Sanders and founder of the Dream Action Coalition acknowledging his role in voter fraud.
CESAR VARGAS: Yeah and for me I totally get it, this is illegal, this is something that can be done.
PVA JOURNALIST: And I assume you don’t go off and tell these conversations to anybody?
VARGAS: No, no, no.
…
ROSEN: The Clinton campaign did not respond for my request for comment. The Federal Election Commission told me it has not received any complaints in connection with this. In a statement, Bob Creamer said he is stepping back from his campaign work so as not to become a distraction. “We regret the unprofessional and careless hypothetical conversations that were captured on hid cameras of a temporary regional contractor for our firm and he is no longer working with us" creamer said, adding "None of the schemes described in the conversations ever took place.”
