Congrats to James O’Keefe for proving that The Washington Post doesn’t just blindly run the claims of Roy Moore’s accusers https://t.co/b9E7btaUNy

Maybe I’m just a wide-eyed optimist, but O’Keefe’s latest failed “prank” feels like it might be some kind of media tipping point… he’s just such a clown luzer, like a wafer-thin mint after Mr. Creosote’s dinner…

I feel there’s a lot of words there that he may not understand. Like embedded, ambushed, investigative and of course journalist

But in his flop sweat video from earlier today, O’Keefe suggested that the reporter wasn’t his.
He’s in full meltdown mode.https://t.co/UFy97Zbcry

Isn't the lesson from the failed O'Keefe sting that WaPo isn't playing around, and that their stories are airtight, and that Moore is wrong and his accusers are right?
