Project Veritas dropped a troubling video last week of a field organizer for the presidential campaign of Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-VT).
The video showed Kyle Jurek making inflammatory statements about gulags, re-education and violence.
But now they just released a new video and this proves that the prior video was not just a one-off.
Because now there’s a second staffer, Martin Weissgarber, a South Carolina field organizer saying pretty similar things, even worse.
Here’s a clip of the highlights:
BREAKING: 2ND PAID STAFFER PRAISES GULAGS
South Carolina @BernieSanders Field Organizer @martinthemanic: "I'll straight up get armed…I'm ready for the "f**king revolution"; "Guillotine the rich"; 'send Republicans to re-education camps'

Here’s the full video:
This guy is clearly delusional and has no idea of history.
Among the things he says according to the video? He’s ready for the “f**king revolution.” He talks about dissolving the House and the Senate and having Bernie Sanders and a committee of people making decisions on things like climate change. He posited putting Republicans in gulags, imaging what that would be like for Sen. Mitch McConnell (R-KY) and Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-SC). He even makes a mocking hand gesture to suggest that Graham is gay.
Weissgarber says he only began to learn about the Soviet Union when he went to college. What an ad for not sending your kids to college! At least not a college that would teach such a warped view of history. But Weissgarber already had a Marxist dad, according to him. The “Soviet Union was not horrible,” Weissgarber explained, declaring that it was very progressive for women. He then goes on to describe the gulags feeding people to work on the Belomorkanal and he notes how a thief ‘reformed’ because of the work and came to understand that capitalism was responsible for poverty and crime. “It was a beautiful thing,” he claimed.But shh, let’s just forget this was forced labor, he had to do it and 25,000 people died. He then claimed we had more people in prison than they did in the gulags, skipping that whole thing about actual convictions for crimes vs. political prisoners.
Weissgarber made it clear he was left of Bernie. “He’s center left to me,” he claimed, saying that Bernie was a “step in the right direction.” A clip shows Weissgarber saying he’d really like a “Marxist Leninist” party in the U.S. Weissgarber argued that billionaires should be forced to build roads and other such things to “build something concrete.” “I’m all about the complete seizure of the means of production, nationalizing everything,” he confessed as he described his communism and attacked the concept of private property. Weissgarber also describes how his mother works for WBUR, Boston’s NPR station, but can’t share how far left she is.
O’Keefe pointed out Weissgarber’s alleged Twitter account, which was thereafter taken down.
Journalist Andy Ngo, who saw his account before it went down, alleged that it showed Weissgarber, while talking about Marxism, enjoyed a lavish lifestyle and was also a rapper.

We've been waiting for over a week now to hear anything from Team @BernieSanders. They remain silent.
The media is also complicit in their silence as not a single "mainstream" journalist is willing to cover #Expose2020 https://t.co/UjNDdlBPGG

They’re going to pull an “Obama” and just try to wait it out until the news cycle passes. Then call it “old” and “settled.”
But O’Keefe indicated that “more would be coming,” so if they’re hoping for it to go away, it might not happen anytime soon.
