Alex Stovall is running for Congress as a Republican in Arizona. He is young, black, and has been sending very mixed messages to the point someone felt that he needed to be "veritased".

The video...





When confronted...




About an hour or so ago, Stovall read a statement (Instagram link).


The thing about young people, they can be ambitious but just don't have a lot of life experience.

Policies do matter - and the fact that he said policies don't matter should disqualify him on the spot for any further consideration. It just shows that he has no clue. If he actually got to Congress, they would eat his lunch and take his lunch money.

Gotta make sure people are put through a good policy gauntlet before they get to Congress. I wonder how far he would have gotten if it were not for PV.

Project Veritas has a track record of engaging in illegal activities and heavily editing videos for the purpose of disinformation. Nothing they do at this point should be trusted.

It looks like a hit piece.

I don't see any context behind the video clips at all, so how am I supposed to comment on them? For all i know, some of those comments were him playing devil's advocate, or basing his statements off something Republicans did that pisses him off. We will never know what that something was, because it's edited out. I too have said from time to time that I'm disgusted by Republicans in the leadership, and of some individual Republicans. So I'm supposed to be upset by him for that? Mitch McConnell pisses me off right now.

There was a ton of splicing and editing, and not much in the video that was all that bad, except for the comments about Candice Owens, and even that lacked context. What about Owens caused him to make those comments about her?

They edit for time. They also make full unedited video available.

Not in the case of Minnesota elections where they asserted there was fraud taking place in the Somali community….look it up.

I was wondering why PV went after a Republican, then I clicked the thread and saw that he was black. Mystery solved.
