UPDATE: Project Veritas Lays Off Most Employees Cutting To Skeleton Staff
CreativeDestructionMedia ^ | 8/17/23 | staff

Posted on 08/17/2023 3:14:54 PM PDT by CFW

New CEO Hannah Giles has laid off most of the employees of Project Veritas in a cost-cutting measure while the company refocuses its efforts going forward. In the near term, PV will operate on a skeleton staff, Giles told CDM.

Sources tell CDM donations collapsed after O'Keefe left PV, and today's decision was not vindictive at all, but simply a way to save the organization from collapse. The business model was not sustainable.

” donations collapsed after O’Keefe left PV “

.

No kidding.

I have never been able to understand what makes progs think everyone around them is not going to react to prog attacks.

They seem to believe if they create a situation then normal American Citizens will just stand with their back to a wall while the slimy progs throw knives.

Nope, they are going to defend or leave so whatever little prog plot they have scammed up does EXACTLY what you see here, wither and die.

The cowards that do not stand up to them and try to appease them will have everything they have worked for stolen or destroyed by the commie-progs.

In fairness, I did not hear Hannah’s name come up when James was fired.

Apple found that out when they forced out Steve Jobs.

Never force out the idea man.

“New CEO Hannah Giles”

Sad that she would agree to stick around after O’Keefe left. I thought better of her.

Similar to Fox News’ self-immolation. Tanking as a defendant during litigation. Muzzling then snuffing out Golden Goose Tucker Carlson.

Wasn’t Hannah Giles the one who participated with James O’Keefe in the ACORN exposure video years ago? If true, that’s pretty sad that their former working relationship has degraded to this point.

“while the company refocuses its efforts going forward.”

yep, refocused on getting a lemonade stand going ...

“In the near term, PV will operate on a skeleton staff”

indeed ... don’t take too many to operate that refocused lemonade stand ...

What did they think would happen?

With no Ted O'Keefe, there would be no mean tweets and therefore donations would pour in.

“ I didn’t know Hannah was the new CEO. WOW.”
******************************************

I didn’t know that either. She was with O’Keefe in the beginning. Sad to see this.

Received a fundraising missive from them just yesterday. Went directly into the recycling bin.

That's what riding a coat tail gets you.

Sooner or later your tail gets yanked good and hard
out from underneath you.

The business model was not sustainable.

The model was O'Keefe.

The business, without the model, was not sustainable.
