Project Veritas appears to be facing one of the biggest crises in its history months after its founder, James O'Keefe, was ousted from the media project by the board of directors. According to anonymous internal sources reported to The Post Millennial, that controversial decision has put the media's finances in serious trouble.
In fact, according to the news outlet, nearly all Project Veritas employees have been laid off.
The website said that, as of today, there are only 18 people left on staff and that on Thursday, several employees were fired in a Zoom meeting in which its new executive director, Hannah Giles, " did not make an appearance."
The news emerged after the Project Veritas account posted a bizarre tweet that read, "SOS Hannah Giles just fired us all."
We obtained a letter from a Project Veritas attorney that was sent to staff, reading:

Twenty people were fired on Thursday, in addition to five other employees who were let go last Monday.
An anonymous insider spoke to The Post Millennial and revealed the plight Project Veritas is going through, charging hard at Giles, who apparently hasn't been able to fill the shoes O'Keefe left.
"She came to all hands in April with her fat sidekick Ben Wetmore and all they did for 3 days was talk sh*t about James and relitigate all the terrible things he did to her/them 10-12 years ago. I knew right then her entire agenda was revenge," the source angrily told the conservative media outlet.
This same source commented that, since O'Keefe's departure, Project Veritas has had no luck raising funding.
"Since James quit the donations dried up... the donations never resumed. The board were desperate to bring Hannah on board because they thought it would be cute but the problem is she's a charlatan and a fraud. Everything she's ever done has been a failure and she lied to everyone claiming she had all these donors she could bring in," the anonymous source stated.
