James O’Keefe on Thursday confronted a Financial Times propagandist, who was questioning his recent exposé on a State Farm Insurance VP attacking Los Angeles fire victims and admitting State Farm is excluding White people from employment.
As The Gateway Pundit reported, State Farm VP of Innovation and Venture Capital Haden Kirkpatrick told an O’Keefe Media Group undercover journalist that, “Areas like where the Palisades are, there should never be houses built in the first place…it’s a tinderbox.” He also admitted that State Farm excludes Whites from employment.
Kirkpatrick further admitted State Farm’s decision to pull out of the California market was a calculated move: “Our people look at this and say, ‘Sh*t, we’ve got, like, maybe $5 billion that we’re short if something happens.’ We’ll go to the Department of Insurance and say, ‘We’re overexposed here; you have to let us catch up our rate.’ And they’ll say, ‘Nah.’ And we’ll say, ‘Okay, then we are going to cancel these policies.’”
The Gateway Pundit previously reported State Farm canceled homeowners’ policies in Pacific Palisades months before fires ravaged their homes.
Financial Times P&C Specialist Carl Winfield criticized O’Keefe’s use of the VP’s statements in his investigative report on State Farm. “This is the third video in a series of videos,” O’Keefe told the reporter, who was questioning why he hadn’t released a report on other insurance agencies and accusing O’Keefe of “being ignorant.”
“How do you know I’m not also investigating those carriers?” O’Keefe asked, noting that he’s exposed Mayor Karen Bass and people in her office, and “now, we’re moving to the insurance companies.”
Winfield sent the following email to O’Keefe:
I’m with the Financial Times P&C Specialist unit. We cover the U.S. property/casualty insurance industry. I watched your video where Hadden Kirkpatrick spoke about insurance risk and wondered why James O’Keefe decided to focus on State Farm when other insurers including Allstate, Chubb, Farmers Insurance either reduced their exposure in California, stopped selling new homeowners policies or pulled out of the state years ago because they weren’t getting enough premium to justify the outsized catastrophe risk. Can you tell me if he was unaware of this?
Additionally, I’m curious about the characterization of the executive’s statement about hiring Latin and Hispanic people. It appears from the interview that he’s saying he prioritizes Latin and Hispanic employees because State Farm expects to have more Latin and Hispanic policyholders/customers by 2040 and would need to tailor its business to accommodate a broader demographic change. The video suggests that this is indicative of bias but it sounds like part of a long-term business strategy. Can you explain?
Finally, I’m curious about O’Keefe’s promotion of Fisher Capital and The Wellness Company’s Field Emergency Kits. Multiple reports say the former is involved in an ongoing fraud case and the latter has been repeatedly reported to the Better Business Bureau for not providing customers with the materials they paid for. Can you tell me why OMG would align itself with either of these companies when its stated mission is to expose wrongdoing?
I’m on deadline for this Thursday, 3/6 at 1pm ET. It would be great if you could respond.
He signed off on the email as “Deputy Editor, P&C Specialist” with his (He/His) pronouns. O’Keefe trolled his use of the pronouns by confirming he was talking to “the right Carl” and asking if he was confused about his gender.
O’Keefe destroyed the disrespectful and clueless journalist.
O’Keefe posted footage from the “INSANELY WILD PHONE CALL” on X Thursday.
