Project Veritas founder and President James O’Keefe challenged the mainstream media to cover the Hillary Clinton campaign’s corruption unearthed Monday in an undercover video during a Tuesday interview on “The Laura Ingraham Show.”

O’Keefe, who is known for releasing undercover recordings of workers at various ACORN offices back in 2009, published a video Monday on YouTube called, “Rigging the Election — Video I: Clinton Campaign and DNC Incite Violence at Trump Rallies.” The video shows “a Democratic dirty tricks operative unwittingly provid[ing] a dark money trail to the [Democratic National Committee] and Clinton campaign” and documents “violence at Trump rallies that is traced to the Clinton campaign and the DNC through a process called bird-dogging.”

“We have quotes here from these guys in the tapes where they describe how Hillary’s in the chain of command. She’s being briefed about what’s going on.”

“We basically exposed the dirty tricks at the deepest levels and we tied it straight to the White House, to the DNC and to the Hillary Clinton campaign,” O’Keefe told LifeZette Editor-in-Chief Laura Ingraham. “These people are paid directly by Hillary Clinton.”

According to O’Keefe’s quote from the video, “The Clinton campaign pays the Democratic National Committee. DNC pays Democracy Partners. Democracy Partners pays the Foval Group. And the Foval Group goes and executes the inducement of violence at Trump rallies.”

“The Hillary Clinton campaign can plausibly deny that they knew anything about it,” the video quotes Scott Foval, the now-former national field director of Americans United for Change, as boasting.

Those involved in the scheme are in violation of campaign coordination laws and federal laws because “there’s coordination between the Hillary campaign, nonprofits, and the super PAC,” O’Keefe explained. Noting that the people featured in the undercover video acknowledged their roles in organizing the violence that erupted at Donald Trump’s rallies in Chicago, North Carolina, Iowa, and Arizona during the primary season, O’Keefe emphasized that these dealings directly tie back to Clinton’s presidential campaign.

“They’re bragging about doing that. It’s smoking-gun evidence, and the reason why the majors aren’t covering it is because there is no way they can spin it,” O’Keefe said. “I think that the story is bullet-proof. It’s solid.”

The Project Veritas undercover reporters spent a year working on and gathering the materials featured in the video.

“We have quotes here from these guys in the tapes where they describe how Hillary’s in the chain of command. She’s being briefed about what’s going on,” O’Keefe said. “These are not low-level people, by the way. These are not like ACORN employees. These are high-level people. Our undercover reporter was invited to the White House. We couldn’t go because I had no way of getting in legally — I’d have to use a fake ID — but we were invited to the White House. We were on conference calls with the White House.”

O’Keefe noted that Bob Creamer, who is married to U.S. Rep. Jan Schakowsky from Chicago, is “kind of the boss” of the whole thing and will be “implicated even more” after the second video is released. Creamer is the co-founder of the Strategic Consulting Group, which is now part of Democracy Partners.

“So, this video — it’s a phenomenon and I just hope that we can somehow get The New York Times and [The] Washington Post to be forced to cover it,” O’Keefe told Ingraham.
