Dear OMG Supporter,
Former FBI agent Jamie Mannina has filed a lawsuit against James O’Keefe and the O’Keefe Media Group (OMG), alleging defamation and other claims stemming from a secretly recorded conversation in which Mannina is heard discussing efforts to “protect people from Trump.”The lawsuit, which includes counts such as defamation by implication, false light portrayal, conspiracy, and even wiretapping, targets the media group’s decision to publish video and audio recordings of Mannina’s statements. In one of the recordings, Mannina is quoted as saying, “I’ve been in conversation with a couple of retired generals to explore what we can do,” referring to efforts related to former President Donald Trump.
Mannina is represented by attorney Mark Zaid, a Washington, D.C.-based lawyer known for national security cases, including his own lawsuit against the Trump administration over the revocation of his security clearance. “This is an attack against the First Amendment,” O’Keefe said, adding that his team is prepared to litigate the case through the appeals process and all the way to the U.S. Supreme Court if needed.
“They're arguing that we made a defamation by implication,” said O’Keefe, “but we just quoted this man and reported the words that came out of his mouth.” One of the more unusual counts in the suit alleges unlawful wiretapping, an accusation O’Keefe called “crazy” given the law in the District. “Washington, D.C. is a one-party consent jurisdiction,” O’Keefe noted. “There’s nothing unlawful about recording someone that you’re talking to.”
“The process is the punishment,” O’Keefe said, adding that lawsuits of this nature are often intended to deter independent journalism by creating financial and legal strain. If you are a D.C.-based attorney who believes in truth over censorship, contact us at: Legal@okeefemediagroup.com
Our latest video takes you inside Epstein’s infamous “temple,” a structure shrouded in mystery, and we need your support to keep this investigation alive. For too long, the Department of Justice has failed to fully disclose the facts about Jeffrey Epstein’s crimes and his enigmatic private island, Little St. James.
That’s why we’ve taken it upon ourselves to do what they won’t—bring the American people the unfiltered reality.

This never-before-seen footage, obtained exclusively by OMG, reveals the interior of the so-called temple on Epstein’s island. From marble-textured walls to a celestial ceiling painting filled with astrological figures, the details raise more questions than answers. The temple’s story is more than just a building—it’s a symbol of the secrets Epstein kept. Our footage shows no piano, no altar, just an unfinished space that feels like a stage set for a play without an ending. Yet, the public’s response has been overwhelming, flooding our inbox with theories and insights. We’re committed to following every lead.
The alternating light and dark stripes on the temple’s exterior, reminiscent of Islamic architectural duality, hint at deeper truths—light versus dark, good versus evil. Together, we can hold the powerful accountable and finish what the Department of Justice started but never completed. Thank you for standing with us in this fight for truth.
In Truth,
James O'Keefe
