So you’re telling me this super ring wing psycho was really a traitor for foreign governments the whole time. Interesting

Donald Trump's allies were so intent on rooting out a 'deep state' working against him that they employed a British spy to recruit women as 'honeytraps', intent on ferreting out critics of the then-president while on dates at DC restaurants.

The spying scheme was orchestrated in part by Project Veritas, according to The New York Times. It targeted members of the FBI, the State Department and even Trump's national security adviser, H.R. McMaster. It's unclear if Trump knew about it when it was going on in 2017 .

Former British spy Richard Seddon trained the women at the Wyoming ranch of Erik Prince - Betsy DeVos' brother.

Various women were recruited for it, including Texas journalist Tarah Price and former Survivor contestant Anna Khait, who was among Trump supporters at the Capitol on January 6.

Their job was to go to dinner with government officials and agents in DC and try to record them disparaging Trump. They'd then report back to Project Veritas. Richard Seddon, a former MI6 agent, hired glamorous women to seduce high profile targets.

The Times reports that Price was paid $10,000 to try to seduce McMaster - often seen as more loyal to the country than he was to Trump.

1. Kick

21. Sounds like a few sex crimes were committed.

[zuul]

2. How is this not sedition or treason or some other serious offense against the US? n/t

[malaise]

4. Only last week I asked if Prince was involved in

the attempted coup.
They are all guilty of treason and must face the consequences.

[kysrsoze]

3. Hmmm... Survivor and The Apprentice both exec produced by Mark Burnett. Coincidence?

I don't think so. You know that slimy MFer has been involved in so much of this.

[BadgerMom]

18. Ding! Ding! Ding! We have a winner!

[Me.]

5. And Flynn Was Also Involved In This Scheme

[LeftInTX]

6. Tarah Price is not a "Texas journalist"...She is with the Blaze and indicates her location as Dallas

Her tweets are all private.


I had to look her up to see who she was affiliated with.

[underpants]

7. Is that picture used on her By Line?

[Grins]

8. Irony: "Project Veritas said the Times was writing a 'smear piece' on them"

Bwahahahaha!!!!!!!!

[thucythucy]

9. I think it says so much about right wingers

that they believe people as smart and savvy as McMaster would fall into a "honeytrap."

"Hey, it worked on Trump in Moscow..."

Not to mention, any FBI agent worth his or her salt would see this coming from a mile away.

I'd bet that Seddon also knew the scheme was absurd, but was quite willing to be paid to run this joke.

10. Learned all he knows about ethics from Hillsdale College!

[SergeStorms]

11. I wondered when Prince's disgusting name...

would arise in the saga of Donald Dumpf. I knew he wouldn't be able to stay out of the Dumpf cesspool forever.
Of course The Cult will treat him like a hero now.

[LiberalFighter]

12. What I realy want to say about Prince I can't.

[mopinko]

13. sounds like a great way to get blackmail material.

[Pepsidog]

14. Well what were the results, any bees trapped? Republican scum. Prince always skates. Traitor.

This is exactly how Trump thinks, I will “F” anything that walks and so will everyone else. When will Prince ever be held accountable for his decades of treasonous actions but he must have a pretty good get out of jail card.

[spanone]

15. the greatest crime for reThugs: to be seen as more loyal to the country than harrump

[Baked Potato]

16. Prince is one to watch. He has the connections and $$ to do very bad things.

Much worse than this little favor for Dump.

[SayItLoud]

17. I would think those targeted who have connections to people in high places AND

low, VERY low places would want to give Prince a little payback.

I can't understand how McMaster and others let these guys/women get away with this snuf. I mean stuff.

[bucolic_frolic]

19. I doubt it's the first private spy network deployed for kompromat of various kinds

Were similar operations ongoing for several decades?

Hotels are a great place to learn who's sleeping with whomever.

20. Project Veritas??? You have GOT to be kidding!!!

This is such a major step up for O'Keefe that I am dumbfounded that he managed it. Someone has been grooming him.

Who remembers the grotesquely over-acted and over-accessorized attacks on ACORN and Planned Parenthood? That was a junior high spring pageant stage production. All it needed was the glue losing its grip on fake facial hair and JO having to catch it and press it back into place.

[tanyev]

23. Hot dog! Did O'Keefe get to wear his pimp costume again?

[BobTheSubgenius]

24. Only indoors, and only during a....ummm...paid interlude.

[Johonny]

22. Every Trump supporter is a Russian agent

most are so stupid they don't realize it and work for free.

The P in GOP stands for Putin at this point.
