Disney VP Takes Leave of Absence After Date with Undercover Reporter for James O'Keefe
Personally I'm glad O'Keefe keeps digging into these sort of stories, stories the company would flatly deny if asked. It's important to know just how far the pendulum has swung inside these companies in the direction of illegal racial discrimination against certain demographics. But there is zero appetite to dig into this behavior by our national media because they support it and are probably doing some of the same things, though again they would flatly deny it if asked.
All of that said, I can't help feeling sorry for Michael Giordano who is reportedly now on leave.
Giordano didn't do anything wrong here. He was just honest about his experience and, unfortunately for him, being honest about these issues is a career death sentence at Disney or probably any other big company in Hollywood. The number one unspoken rule is that you do not talk about the company's progressive secrets outside the progressive bubble. He'll now join other outcasts from academia like Bret Weinstein, formerly of Evergreen State College, Peter Boghossian, formerly of Portland State, and Jordan Peterson. The difference is that each of those people made a choice to speak up publicly, Giordano was presumably just looking for a date with a pretty girl.
I'm sure he will be quietly fired sometime soon and then he'll be replaced by someone who is well aware of what happens when you speak out of turn at Disney. The need for progressive omerta will be reinforced without Disney having to say a thing.

As we approach the Dem convention in a few weeks, I REALLY hope OMG is able to get some wonderful recordings to share about how Leftists, progressives feel about the assassination attempt, the prospects of Biden, and plans to cheat in this coming election.
Play them weekly until the election.

Yesterday afternoon, several alert C&C readers quickly sussed out that my legal trip to New York this week was to defend James O’Keefe and O’Keefe Media Group in federal court in the Southern District of New York. The clue was a tweet by James O’Keefe saying that. As you know, I don’t usually comment about my clients or cases here, both for their privacy and to make sure I don’t inadvertently influence the case. (For example, I’d never want a C&C post to be somehow used as an exhibit against my client.)So I can say a few things, since yesterday Mr. O’Keefe generously and publicly thanked us for helping defeat Project Veritas’s request for an injunction that would have shut down OMG, if it had been granted. I won’t continue this trend, but I will seize this rare opportunity to give you a taste of the flavor of a post-pandemic litigator’s life.

The stakes were as high as they get. Among a long laundry list of overreaching demands, Project Veritas had asked the Court to indefinitely forbid OMG from accepting money from anyone who had ever given even a dollar to Project Veritas (even though that unfortunate enterprise is now on life support owing to self-inflicted injuries).
Had it been granted, the injunction Project Veritas requested would have destroyed OMG and sidelined James through the election. I will not speculate on the timing, except to note PV’s lawsuit was filed back in May 2023, but for its own reasons Project Veritas waited a full year to strike in May 2024, only then seeking “emergency” injunctive relief.
You can do the math.
The hearing began promptly at 9:00am on Monday. After a brief skirmish over PV’s failure to serve Mr. O’Keefe properly (multiple mistakes), the smart, efficient judge agreed service was no good but said she would like to hear from him directly anyway, if possible. After I made a hasty hallway call to OMG offices, James voluntarily agreed to drive down to the courthouse and testify, even though he didn’t have to.
An injunctive hearing is like a little trial. Normally, both sides get to put on a case. But PV consumed the entire day with their half-dozen witnesses, including PV board member and former president (after James) Joseph Barton, James’ former executive assistant, PV’s I.T. manager, and OMG’s operations director.
Current Project Veritas president and board member Ben Wetmore, himself a lawyer, was listed as a PV witness but was, inexplicably, a no-show. It was probably a good decision; he escaped a withering cross-examination I took particular pains to prepare.
When instead, former PV president Barton testified, he claimed that James had breached certain provisions of his PV employment agreement, mostly by diverting PV donors to OMG, through telling them to stop giving money to PV. Barton claimed to have many such voice mails on his phone. But under cross, Barton could not name a single donor James allegedly diverted away from PV. Barton also admitted those alleged voice mails, which would have been explosive evidence if true, were not provided as evidence for the hearing.
When asked why not, he said nobody asked him to bring the voice mails.

James O’Keefe Goes Undercover at DNC Convention – Teases Video Drop Tomorrow… “Stay Tuned”
O’Keefe Media Group went undercover at the DNC convention in Chicago this week.
The Democrats completed their coup this week when they formally nominated Kamala Harris after she forced Joe Biden off the ballot last month.
Harris did not receive any votes in the primary but she stole all of Joe Biden’s delegates and took his donor money.
James O’Keefe went undercover at the DNC convention and teased a video drop.
“Undercover at the DNC convention for two days. They had no idea. Full video drops tomorrow. Stay tuned. #DNCExposed,” James O’Keefe said on Wednesday.
BREAKING: @MSNBC Producer Admits MSNBC Is 'Doing All They Can to Help’ the Harris Campaign
During an undercover date with an OMG journalist, Basel Hamdan (@BaselYHamdan), a writer and producer for MSNBC’s show “Ayman,” (@AymanMSNBC) was asked what the network has done to assist the Kamala Harris campaign. Hamdan revealed on hidden camera that “what her [Harris’s] message of the day is, is their message of the day,” as MSNBC actively pushes Harris’s narrative to help her win. He admitted that MSNBC is doing “all they can to help,” Harris get elected, with the network operating as an extension of the campaign. He went on to say, "MSNBC is indistinguishable from the party," further highlighting their partisan agenda.
In discussing the relationships between the MSNBC hosts and Democratic politicians, Hamdan reveals, ”The anchor and the politician are just in total agreement about everything.” He adds, “If you watch an interview with a Democratic politician, they just finish each other's sentences.”
Hamdan also didn’t shy away from criticizing the network’s audience, stating, “They’ve made their viewers dumber over the years,” and explaining that MSNBC is “too cozy with Democratic politicians.”
