O’Keefe Faces Off in Front of Pentagon with D.C. Chaperone Wielding a Pom-Pom Baton Over Hidden Camera Footage

James O’Keefe brought newly released undercover footage to Washington, D.C., seeking public reaction to a Pentagon official’s admission of internal resistance against President Donald Trump and Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth.

OMG’s hidden camera footage featured now former Department of Defense Branch Chief Nicolas Turza, who was caught stating, “We’re going to resist him [Trump]. Everything he does.” Turza also called Trump “illegitimate” and accused the administration of pushing a regressive and “dictatorship” agenda.

While approaching a group of people to discuss the footage, O’Keefe encountered a woman known as “Jojo,” a field trip organizer from Pennsylvania. Jojo repeatedly attempted to block the conversation.

“I’m a journalist. My job is to inform the public,” O’Keefe said during the exchange. Jojo quipped, “I think you’re not legit.”

“You think I’m not legit?” O’Keefe asked. Jojo didn’t hold back. “I think you’ve done some really nasty things,” she replied. When asked to name one example of something “nasty” she claimed O’Keefe had done, she didn’t respond, instead returning to waving her pom-pom stick and attempting to cut off the interaction.

Despite Jojo’s disapproval, some students in the group showed interest in the footage, with one recognizing O’Keefe and voicing support, shouting “We love you James!”
