James O’Keefe, the founder of Project Veritas and a prominent figure with MAGA folks, dropped a bombshell. Because of his past, it should typically be taken with a grain of salt; however, the Department of Justice official he exposed seems to inadvertently confirm it. The acting deputy chief of a Justice Department unit, Joseph Schnitt, said on hidden camera that the government will “redact every Republican” from the Epstein client list.
“They’ll redact every Republican or conservative person in those files, leave all the liberal, Democratic people in those files,” Schnitt said in the tape.
In a statement addressed to the DOJ’s acting director, Schnitt said that he had no idea he was being recorded on video and that he met the O’Keefe reporter — who he explained was pretending to be an au pair named Skylar — on a dating app. “The comments I made were my own personal comments on what I’ve learned in the media and not from anything I’ve done at or learned via work,” he wrote.
So, saying he was tricked indeed doesn’t refute what he said on tape.
