If
we do not quickly address these underlying issues, it is
only a matter of time before the system fails again with
catastrophic consequences for the U.S. economy and our
overall way of life.
While the trillions of dollars the U.S. government
borrowed and injected into the system averted a total
system meltdown, the borrowed money did not address the
underlying issues that caused the system to fail.
"Selling U.S. Out" is not about some grand conspiracy.
It is about how the toxic combination of ignorance,
negligence, political ideology, corruption and greed
drove bad trade and economic policies that culminated in
the economic collapse of 2008. |

About James O'Keefe
BIOGRAPHY: James O'Keefe is the president of Project
Veritas, a non-profit organization dedicated to training
citizen journalists nationwide. James’ investigations
expose corruption and malfeasance in major
taxpayer-funded institutions, including ACORN, Planned
Parenthood, NJEA, NPR and Medicaid.
James is most well-known for his 2009 ACORN
investigation, which exposed systematic corruption in
multiple offices, such as the facilitation of child
prostitution, human trafficking and tax evasion. The
U.S. House and Senate promptly voted to defund ACORN and
the U.S. Census cut ties with the group. The
organization was ultimately forced to disband.

Other well known investigations include NPR. The sting
involved NPR executive Ron Schiller and senior director
Betsy Liley; the two agreed to receive a $5 million
donation from a fictions Muslim organization. Schiller
proudly proclaimed that NPR is independent, much more so
than the “Jewish controlled newspapers.” He also
discussed his disgust of the Tea Party, The Republican
Party, and Evangelical Christians. The two executives
later resigned. The House of Representatives voted to
defund NPR.
In the summer of 2011, Project Veritas led an
investigation into Medicaid office in six states. In
every state Medicaid workers helped cover obvious cases
of abuse and fraud on the applications. As a result of
the investigation, workers were retrained in Maine and
Ohio, the attorney generals in Ohio and Virginia called
the videos “outrageous” and “troubling” and sought
further investigations. |

In addition to his
own undercover investigations , James is committed to
empowering the next generation of citizen journalists.
From student newspaper editors to bloggers to video
producers to journalists, enterprising muckrakers across
the country look to James for inspiration, advice, and
encouragement. Through Project Veritas, James has
personally trained and equipped dozens of citizen
journalists in an effort to create transparency in
government spending.
James O’Keefe is a graduate of Rutgers University. He
