You mean the lies of people they get on video!? I don't really like how O'Keefe editorializes too much, but he does show basically what amount to confessions on tape.

Honestly Project Veritas wouldn't be what it is without the video evidence—hence I think YouTube is actually their Achilles' heel.

I appreciate your point, but the problem at Twitter has been that the video information used by Veritas has been edited and manipulated in order to fit a right wing lie that Republicans care about the 99% and are actively trying to help, but for the nasty, corrupt Democrats. There are of course bad Democrats that should be voted out of office, but the general focus of the party is to help the 99%, whereas the general focus of the Republican party has been socialism for the 1%, since the time of the Reagan administration.

since the time of the Reagan administration

Not far back enough. The GOP's origins were as a lobby for northern banking and industrial interests.

I am not referring to all Republicans.
