Bob Creamer and Scott Foval, two Democrat operatives working to elect Hillary Clinton, are no longer employed by their various action groups after James O’Keefe’s Project Veritas Action published videos of them touting ways they unfairly attempted to sway the election toward their candidate.

The videos, titled “Rigging the Election,” showed Foval telling journalists that he has hired mentally ill people to disrupt Trump events and start fights and also describing how organizations can cover up voter fraud on Election Day, according to The Washington Post.

On Monday, Foval was laid off from his post as national field director at Americans United for Change.

The New York Times quoted Foval as saying: “It doesn’t matter what the friggin’ legal and ethics people say, we need to win this.”

In the videos, Foval also mentioned Creamer several times in conjunction with getting fake voter IDs and other fraudulent activities.

Creamer’s own statements on the videos stopped short of admitting any wrongdoing, but he still stepped down from his post at the unified Democratic campaign for Hillary Clinton.

Democracy Partners, an organization that Creamer founded and that employed Foval as a contractor, denounced the videos as false. “Our firm has recently been the victim of a well-funded, systematic spy operation that is the modern day equivalent of the Watergate burglars,” it said.

“The plot involved the use of trained operatives using false identifications, disguises and elaborate false covers to infiltrate our firm and others, to steal campaign plans, and goad unsuspecting individuals into making careless statements on hidden cameras,” The Washington Post reported.

The statement also said that the statements made by Foval didn’t reflect the organization’s values.
