Conservative provocateur James O'Keefe and his former organization Project Veritas have settled a lawsuit filed by a Pennsylvania postmaster after the group spread a Postal Service worker's false claims of voter fraud during the 2020 presidential election.

A lawyer who represented Robert Weisenbach, the Erie postmaster who filed the lawsuit in state court, confirmed that the suit had been settled on undisclosed terms.
The only comment Im allowed to make about it is that the case was filed, was litigated, and settled to the satisfaction of the parties, attorney David Houck told NBC News.

O'Keefe, who was removed as head of Project Veritas in February 2023, issued a brief statement Monday in which he said he was "aware of no evidence or other allegation that election fraud occurred in the Erie Post Office during the 2020 Presidential Election.

...

In a statement published by O'Keefe and Project Veritas on Monday, Hopkins said that he "only heard a fragment" of a conversation between Weisenbach and another supervisor, but had "reached the conclusion that the conversation was related to nefarious behavior." Hopkins now says he was wrong.

As a USPS mail carrier at the time, I was on heightened guard considering many allegations of widespread fraud plaguing the 2020 Presidential Election, Hopkins said in the statement. As I have now learned, I was wrong. Mr. Weisenbach was not involved in any inappropriate behavior concerning the 2020 Presidential Election. The [United States Postal Service Office of the Inspector General] investigated and found that neither Mr. Weisenbach nor any other USPS employee in Erie, Pennsylvania engaged in election fraud or any other wrongdoing related to mail-in ballots."

"I apologize to Mr. Weisenbach, his family, the employees of the Erie Post Office, and anyone that has been negatively impacted by my report," Hopkins continued. "I implore everyone reading this statement to leave the Weisenbach family alone and allow them to return to their normal, peaceful, lives.

I really wish people would stop settling for allowing these idiots to keep settlement terms secret. All of this shit needs to be public and they need to go on all news TV channels and spend as much time debunking their own bullshit as they spent spreading it.
