Vish Burra released texts on Thursday that showed Matthew Tyrmand calling for James O’Keefe and Vish to be jailed. Tyrmand was reportedly one of the leaders of the Project Veritas Coup that ousted James O’ Keefe, PV’s founder, from the organization. Tyrmand is also known to be in Ron DeSantis’ inner political circle.
Vish Burra released a screenshot of a message from Tyrmand that read, “Vish, Bannon and Jok (James O’Keefe) can share a jail cell in a federal work camp one day soon.” Vish tweeted above the screenshot, “People think I’m just picking on Ratt Turdmand @MatthewTyrmand for clicks. No. I can’t stay silent and not expose the MALICIOUS INTENT he has in his heart for myself, my friends, my mentors, and @JamesOKeefeIII, the guy he coup’d under false pretenses of fiduciary duty.”

In response to Vish’s tweet, The Washington D.C. Young Republicans, who are now under America First Leadership, tweeted, “Why did the alleged @Project_Veritas coup leader Matthew Tyrmand call for Steve Bannon and @JamesOKeefeIII to be jailed and sent to work camps?”

National File Reporter Patrick Howley jumped in on the conversation, tweeting, “I can confirm that Rat Tyrmand has been personally blacklisting and smearing me for years, after previously trying to get me to give him control of one of my projects. I said of course not because he is a scummy and despicable little man.”

Tyrmand is an outspoken DeSantis supporter who spends much of his time attacking Trump supporters on Twitter. Tyrmand is also one of the coup’s leaders who ousted James O’ Keefe from Project Veritas.
Long considered untrusty and suspiciously close to foreign governments, Tyrmand has recently been spending time in Poland.
Vish teased that he would be releasing more Matthew Tyrmand messages soon, adding that a string of messages he has on file from Tyrmand is “UNHINGED.”
