James O'Keefe: “Fear Is Worse Than Corruption.” | DSH #1764
Sean sits down with James O’Keefe at AmFest (final day) for a raw, high-energy conversation about fear, truth, corruption, and the real cost of doing journalism that threatens power. James breaks down why he believes the system is bigger than any one person, why most people stay silent, and how he personally fights fear by staying locked in on purpose, truth, and mission. He also shares the investigation he’s most proud of — “Line in the Sand” — where he embedded with Venezuelan migrants riding the train of death through Mexico, witnessing the human side of immigration and the money machine behind the border crisis.
