I good one for Project Veritas or similar organization would be to observe as many politically connected people paying for items in Washington D.C., or elsewhere. What are they paying with, CC or Cash? My guess is Cash.
Should be a law that no government connected person is allowed to pay for anything with Cash.
another one who isn't above the law actually. . .
Bannon, 68, was sentenced by US District Judge Carl J. Nichols in court in Washington Friday after a jury in July found him guilty of two counts of contempt of Congress for refusing to testify and hand over documents to the Jan. 6 committee.

Good News Friday: Oct 21, 2022
Dear Patriots,
It was wonderful to hear from so many of you this week. You have told us about all the work you are doing in your neck of the woods, for the November 8th election. Thank you! You are fighting to save your country. Keep your shoulders to the wheel for 19 more days.
Despite growing censorship and cancelling, regular Americans are figuring out what the Democrats have done to the country. They're rejecting their woke agenda at a level the party may hopefully never recover from. Hundreds of alternative news sources have been invented and millions of people, like you, have shared the truth.
1- This keeps happening to this gal. It would be delightful if she lost on November 8.
Breitbart
AOC Heckled at Her Own Town Hall; 'AOC Has Got to Go!'
QUOTE: Democratic socialist Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY) received a taste of her own medicine on Wednesday night as she was heckled by protesters at a local town hall meeting with constituents in Queens, New York.
Unlike a town hall last week in the Bronx, where AOC was heckled by anti-war protesters in a sparsely-attended town hall, the town hall in Queens was full, and the issues were varied.
The protest group was there to speak up against AOC and protest against crime rates going up in NYC, against the LGBTQ+ community housing and Mandates, among other topics.On Wednesday night, AOC tried to reason with the crowd, to dance to the bongo drums, and even to imitate a local Hispanic accent.
Ocasio-Cortez will face Republican Tina Forte in the November election to represent the 14th congressional district of New York.
2- Dr. Simone Gold is back at work fighting for medical freedom.
America's Frontline Doctors
America's Frontline Doctors file brief in lawsuit fighting the FDA
QUOTE: America's Frontline Doctors' legal team is taking a stand against the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) and its illegal mandates against ivermectin.
They have filed an amicus curiae brief supporting a lawsuit filed by a group of brave doctors who have successfully used ivermectin with patients.
These doctors are willing to risk their careers to defend the truth. This lawsuit takes direct aim at FDA's shameful interference between doctors' and patients' rights when treating people suffering from COVID-19.
It will also have significant implications for the future of medical freedom. That's because the FDA is unlawfully enforcing ivermectin mandates. The FDA cannot make or enforce laws against using ivermectin, but they did so anyway.
3- We can only hope that the scam Black Lives Matters is soon in the dustbin of history. Click here to watch the trailer for the movie by Candace Owens, The Greatest Lie Ever Sold: George Floyd and the Rise of BLM.
By Civis Americanus
End of the Line for Black Lives Matter?
QUOTE: Candace Owens isn't Black Lives Matter's biggest problem this month; its own website and social media posts are. These are not exactly new revelations because the information has been online for years but, when American Thinker readers help take it viral, it's the end of the world for this race hustling anti-Semitic fraud, and egg on the face of every organization and political figure that has gotten behind it.
These could claim reasonably, at least until now, that they didn't know, but now they no longer have this excuse. They need to get clear of this impending public relations catastrophe immediately if not sooner.
The Democratic National Committee appears to have removed "Black Lives Matter Organizing Resources" from its website, possibly in light of all the questions about the organization's finances that came up earlier this year.
4- If true, we rejoice in this news. It means that the communist media hold on all Americans is coming to an end. The media is still trusted by Democrats, but, as most Fake News outlets have low ratings, this impact is less.
Gallup
Americans' Trust In Media Remains Near Record Low
QUOTE: Americans' confidence in the media has been anemic for nearly two decades, and Gallup's latest findings further document that distrust. The current level of public trust in the media's full, fair and accurate reporting of the news is the second lowest on record. This new confidence reading follows Gallup's historically low confidence in both TV news and newspapers in June and a new low in December's annual rating of the honesty and ethics of television reporters. Newspaper reporters received similarly low ratings in the same poll.
Partisans remain sharply divided in their views of the media, with most Democrats versus few Republicans trusting it. These divisions are entrenched and show no signs of abating.
5- Oh! This will be fun to watch!
Daily Wire
Elon Musk To Gut Twitter, Report Says
QUOTE: Billionaire Elon Musk will reportedly gut Twitter with massive cuts when he takes over, getting rid of the overwhelming majority of the company.
The Washington Post reported that Musk told prospective investors that he plans to get rid of "nearly 75 percent of Twitter's 7,500 workers, whittling the company down to a skeleton staff of just over 2,000.
The report said that Musk believed that gutting the company was the first step and then he could reshape it through new hires.
The report also disclosed some of the people who decided to help invest in Twitter with Musk, including Oracle co-founder Larry Ellison and Sequoia partner Doug Leone, who the Post said "were also Trump supporters and self-proclaimed believers in the type of free speech ideology Musk promised to bring back to the platform."
The report added that hedge fund manager Kenneth Griffin, "the second largest GOP donor in the current midterm cycle, also committed a smaller amount — under $20 million compared with $1 billion from Ellison — to the deal."
6- Far left VOX doesn't approve of states making laws to protect citizens from dangerous injections.
The anti-vaccine movement is gaining strength.
Vox
A wave of anti-vaccine legislation is sweeping the United States
QUOTE: Across the country, Republican lawmakers have drafted a pile of anti-vaccine mandate bills this year, chipping away at a foundational health practice for the last half-century. More than 80 anti-vaccine bills have been introduced in state legislatures, according to academics tracking the phenomenon, dwarfing the number of countervailing pro-vaccine bills. Public health experts are preparing for an all-out war on school mandates and other vaccine measures in states like Texas.
7- Usually, we don't like when books are turned into movies but this one is a winner. This movie is based on the book of the same name by Robert F. Kennedy, Jr. The truth about the diabolical Fauci and his gaggle of "scientist" is oozing out.
Watch the movie and tell your friends. It's free until Oct 27.
The Real Anthony Fauci Movie
The Real Anthony Fauci Movie
QUOTE: Within the first 5 minutes, you know why Robert F. Kennedy Jr.'s blockbuster bestselling book The Real Anthony Fauci is now a full-length feature documentary exposing Big Pharma, Big Tech and Big Government.
8- This is a thought piece for your weekend reading by Dennis Prager on the difference between conservatism and progressivism. Conservatism is undergoing major political shifts but at it's core it is the same.
Dennis Prager at PJ Media
Explaining Conservativism II: Why the Left Hates It
QUOTE: Conservativism attempts to conserve the best of the past — the best art, literature and music, the best standards, values and wisdom. Conservativism then passes the best of everything to every succeeding generation.
The Left — meaning progressives, not necessarily liberals — loathes the fact that conservativism preserves the past. That is why "change" is one of the most cherished words in the Left's vocabulary. There is nothing more threatening or, perhaps more important, boring, to a leftist than preserving the past. "New" and "change" provide leftists meaning and excitement.
Change and newness are so vital to leftists that a progressive who cared first and foremost about excellence would cease to be a progressive.
A reason for the Left's love of the new and love of change is that if traditional standards of excellence are preserved, the talentless will fail. Just as the cultural Left fought to award every young person a trophy whether or not his or her team actually won, the Left declares every piece of junk "art."
The conservative wants to pass on to every generation the best that human beings have created. Depriving young people of the greatest art, literature, music and ideas is a form of child abuse. The result has been generations of ignorant and foolish people, many of whom are actively working toward the opposite of what the "progressive" label suggests: taking society backward.
We conservatives want to conserve the beautiful, the profound and the wise.
What does the Left wish to conserve? The answer is: nothing. That's why everything the Left touches, it destroys. The less you conserve, the more you destroy.

The UK is a little further down the toilet than us, (but we're trying to catch up)
Its truly amazing what has happened across the pond in the past week.
A letter from England about Liz Truss’s downfall
The big news out of England has been that Liz Truss lost the Prime Minister’s office after only 45 days, the shortest term in history. In her place, a man named Jeremy Hunt is now the de facto leader of the disintegrating Tory party. Many people think the problem wasn’t Truss’s ideas but, instead, the fact that she didn’t understand that significant changes are best made incrementally. Others see something more sinister, which is that the entrenched powers, which are allied ideologically if not actually, with China, didn’t like her pro-UK policies.
A dear friend of mine in England sent me her perspective on what happened. I’m reprinting her email with her permission:
I'm sure you cannot have missed what has been happening in the dystopian country across the pond, which used to be called the United Kingdom but which is shortly to be renamed The Once-Great British Banana Republic (banana shortages expected any time soon)
In nearly seventy years I cannot ever remember anything like the last few weeks. Every time we switch on the TV or look at our phones/tablets it's as though we are back in 1460 at the height of the Wars of the Roses with those in power battling it out and new heads rolling every day. I think I'm right in saying that we have now had the shortest-reigning Prime Minister in history, the shortest-reigning Chancellor in history, and the shortest-reigning Home Secretary in history.
Image: Liz Truss. YouTube screen grab.
It all started as some sort of "coup" (there really is no other word for it) when Truss, the PM who resigned, brought in a mini-budget that the money markets (and probably other global organisations) didn't like because it actually embodied true Conservative values. After that, things moved very quickly. Suddenly, Truss was forced to sack the very intelligent Ghanaian Chancellor Kwasi Kwarteng (who had committed no sin other than to deliver her budget), and the globalist Jeremy Hunt was parachuted in to replace him.
If you didn't know, Hunt has overseen years of chaos in the National Health Service, has a Chinese wife, embraces whole-heartedly the Chinese Zero Covid option, including very long, hard lockdowns, and was opposed to Brexit. He also lost to Boris in the Conservative leadership election a few years ago and came nowhere in the recent leadership election that Truss won. So, the man whom nobody wants and who supports ideas that no one likes is now in the second most important job in the country and has been telling Truss what to do for the last couple of weeks.
The excellent Home Secretary, a black woman called Suella Braverman, who takes a firm line on reducing illegal immigration, was sacked last night by Truss and Hunt on a technicality (but in reality, because she can't support Hunt's agenda). She had a 90-minute shouting match with them before she agreed to go. Hunt then promptly brought in (via Truss) a person called Grant Shapps, who has been absolutely useless as Transport Secretary, to run the Home Office.
Now Truss has stepped down, and the new leadership (i.e. PM) contest will be between (1) Rishi Sunak (former Chancellor who squandered £400 billion pounds on Covid payments, is a chum of Mr Hunt, and lost the last leadership contest), (2) Penny Mordaunt (also lost in previous leadership contest), (3) probably several unknowns—and also (4) Boris Johnson! God help us! (People are suggesting online that No. 10 Downing Street should be fitted with a revolving door.)
I am pretty certain that Britain is now being run by the WEF and IMF and that the Conservatives will be finished by, or before, the next election (some time between 2023 and 2025). They ceased to be conservatives in any sense of the word some time ago and have blatantly broken all manifesto promises from the 2019 general election and ignored the wishes of the electorate
I am sure you can understand my feelings, as you are currently experiencing something of the same with your own country being run by organisations or people behind the scenes who are pulling the strings. It is quite obvious that Biden is simply a puppet, but I have never quite been able to work out who are the people to whom he answers. Now, many in this country are also asking themselves “Who does the ‘Conservative’ party answer to?

They are pathetic losers who have failed or are well along in the process of failing in life. Darwin used to take care of it, but we now have more than even he can manage.
They have no center, no beliefs, no convictions. Their entire existence revolves around “look at me” and holding out hope for handouts. They are feral humans with no internal compass and no desire to put forth any effort to excel at anything or better themselves.
I’ll stop there

It is a given that Republicans will take the House back. Bit of a change recently--- RCP is projecting that the GOP will take the Senate. Fingers crossed.
IF the republicans can get enough votes to overcome the fraud that is bound to happen from the democrat side
Yeah Brandon - that is what we are all afraid of.
