James O’Keefe discusses soon-to-be-released report his friends worry may get him killed

James O’Keefe, the founder of OKeefe Media, has confirmed that he plans to release a report that his friends say may get him killed.

In a lengthy tweet published Tuesday, he seemed to basically say that he’s made peace with this possibility and is going ahead with his story.

View the tweet below:

The tweet begins with him saying he has lived a good life but warning that he doesn’t know what comes next — that he only knows that there’s “extreme risk” doing what he does.

“At 39, I’ve lived a good life,” he writes. “Whether it’s complete or not is not up to me. What happens next, I don’t know. If there’s more to come here, so be it. I’ve learned the pursuit of truth requires extreme risk while operating without a safety net. I’ve experienced so much. I’ve lived ten lives compressed into a fraction of one.”

“That’s all that a man can hope for. Meteoric highs, extreme lows, and near-death experiences, Jail and jury trials, travels to every state dozens of times, adventures, travails, failures, betrayals, and loves lost and gained, repeated valleys, moving and climbing mountains, enduring multiple rebirths and renewals,” he continues.

His lengthy post has inspired his supporters to shower him with support on the social media platform X:

He then goes on to quickly plug his book, “American Muckraker,” before talking about his upbringing.

“I’ve received love from a balanced family with honest parents and sincere grandparents who raised me to have a manically driven work ethic, all while believing in the best in people,” he explains. “From my vantage point, that last thing is on the verge of extinction unless things fundamentally change.”

He also talks about his transition from Project Veritas, his previous company, to O’Keefe Media.

“I built a good organization from nothing, which did good things. I’m taking lessons from the first company and building a better one from nothing, which I know will do more extraordinary things,” he writes.

O’Keefe then moves on to talking about “challenging  Leviathan.” In the Bible, the Leviathan is an extremely powerful sea creature.

“Leviathan doesn’t like being challenged,” he writes. “But as nearly impossible as that is, the enemy and its injustice is no longer what bothers me. An enemy can’t betray you. Only people you think are good can do that.”

Continuing his lengthy tweet, he then talks about the betrayals he’s witnessed.

“It has been an indescribable hell on earth for me to witness people go against everything they claim to believe in – everything good and right, in service to their love of money and power,” he explains. “I’ve witnessed envy destroy people whose hearts I thought I knew. I’ve seen an unhealthy obsession with comfort and safety from countless others. These weaknesses stand between us and what we’re ‘up against.'”

And finally, after getting all that out of the way, O’Keefe addresses the mysterious report which his friends seem to believe might get him killed.

“I’m not suicidal, but I’m also not afraid to die,” he writes. “Now, I’m indifferent to the outcome and frankly numb to the consequences of truth-telling. I’ve adapted to faith over fear.”

“The mission is to discover other people whose principles are not for sale — who will do the right thing rather than talk about doing the right thing. I’m tired of seeing 10s of thousands of people sliding into my DMs complaining to my team about how bad things are… and then they make excuses or do nothing,” he adds.

“I’m tired, Boss. So here I stand; I can do no other. As has been said, “If they’re gonna kill me, they’re going to kill me.” Let’s do this. Let’s get 2024 started. Let’s inspire others to be brave. Let’s raise the stakes. Let’s expose them all! In Truth, James,” he concludes.
