Conservative journalist filmmaker James O’Keefe on Saturday tweeted an ominous message to those who follow him and influential work.

“We have a story we’re going to release this coming week and I've never thought about this before but I am afraid for my life on this one,” O'Keefe announced Saturday afternoon.

He is manifying the threat to himself as Breitbart and Hastings did to themselves by telling people beforehand that he has a bombshell. It is not profitable to kill an informant after his information is public. Revenge is easy to spot and can complicate things for the informee. You kill an informant before he gets his information out there. The information is the imoprtant commodity not the informant. By killing him prior you preclude the information coming out and other potential informants understand the death for what it is. You get your stuff out there then you are much safer, though not totally secure even then.

Since it’s about FERGUSON, it might center on the killing of 20-year-old DEANDRE JOSHUA, who was shot in the head and then BURNED in a Ferguson housing project..?

My guess would be that James has been able to document that SOMEONE deliberately leaked his name as a witness for the Grand Jury no bill, thereby assuring that he would be killed for his cooperation.

Kind of “Snitches get Stitches”, ‘cept it’s someone very close to the WHITE HOUSE saying it, this time.

So this would be a de-facto murder by someone in The Adminstration.

If I had a single guess I’d say it’s HOLDER but another guess is that it’s ValJar.

ONLY MY OWN **GUESS**.

He’s been pretty reliable as far as revealing information nobody else covers.

Hopefully trusted people also have the information so that it gets outregardless.

Drudge has also tweeted hinting that something big is coming.

So what's the deal?

He should just blurt it out

Unless Islam is involved.

A very wild card.

We only KNOW it’s about Ferguson, nothing more, really.

And that the imending revelation is enough to keep up one or more people in the Administration “for several nights”.

Eh...O’Keefe is not nearly the vapid hypeMaster that The Ever-Crying Glen Beck is so...I think there is probably something to this.

That way lies relative safety. They may all have thought that if they tell others of their fears they will forestall the hit. Not true. Those prophesies are regarded as a curious but unconnected set of words by the public and as mythological by the Law.

That’s not how you make money in investigative journalism.

Beck is an interesting schmoe. Breitbart had something that died with him, probably also Hastings.

Sounds like the Glenn Beck method of self-promotion.

Sounded to me when someone mentioned it on a thread about Giuliani getting death threats that O’keefe freaked out after noticing how insane the left can get. I assume he feels that he will get heat coming his way.

If he were to be upfront about it, all tracks would be scrubbed within 24 hours.

No, that's Jerry Rivers-type crap.

O'keefe is a cut or two above Rivers.

But not above being a little melodramatic every now and then.

As was Breitbart...and I thought highly of him.

As is Drudge...and I think less and less of him, lately.

Another guess is they’ve documented that the Feds played a very active role in **making sure** Missouri Guard units played no role at all in preventing the large-scale arson and rioting after the Grand Jury announcement:

Or that they have proof the Admin *arranged* for the destruction...?

Just another TOTAL GUESS...
