A high-profile member of the far-right media group Project Veritas has left the organization, and is threatening to release new details on this year’s messy ouster of Project Veritas founder James O’Keefe.

Matthew Tyrmand, a conservative commentator, has left Project Veritas, he confirmed on Twitter this week. His departure comes months after that of O’Keefe, who was removed from his leadership role in February over allegations that he had been “outright cruel” to employees and spent company money on expensive personal pursuits. After O’Keefe’s ouster, his allies accused Tyrmand of spearheading the “coup.” (Tyrmand appears to have dismissed some of those accusations.)
