A new video shows Vice Chair of the Democratic National Committee (DNC) David Hogg telling an undercover journalist that Anthony Bernal, former First Lady Jill Biden’s chief of staff, had “an enormous amount of power” in the White House during former President Joe Biden’s administration.
In a video published Wednesday on X, formerly Twitter, by Project Veritas, Hogg was asked by an undercover reporter how corrupt he believed the DNC was. In response, Hogg said, “I think the fact of the matter is the DNC is always going to be like a campaign arm of the president ultimately. The bigger issue was like the inner circle that was around Biden.”

“Like, Jill Biden’s chief of staff had an enormous amount of power,” Hogg added.
Deterrian Jones, a former staff member for the White House Office of Digital Strategy, told the undercover journalist that the “enormous amount of power” wielded by Anthony Bernal during the Biden administration “was an open secret” and that the former first lady’s chief of staff was a “shadowy, Wizard of Oz-type figure.” “I would avoid him,” Jones added. “He was scary.”
After explaining that Bernal worked behind the scenes out of view of the American people, Jones told the undercover Project Veritas journalist, “He wielded an enormous amount of power, and I can’t stress to you enough how much power he had at the White House.”
Sharing the first video of a two-part series on Hogg’s revelations regarding the DNC, Project Veritas tweeted, “Undercover Meeting with DNC Leader @davidhogg111 Reveals who REALLY ran the Biden White House.”
In a new book titled “Original Sin,” CNN anchor Jake Tapper and Axios political correspondent Alex Thompson explained that Bernal and Biden aide Annie Tomasini helped guide the former president’s campaign during the COVID-19 pandemic lockdown and had significant influence in the Biden White House.
“The significance of Bernal and Tomasini is the degree to which their rise in the Biden White House signaled the success of people whose allegiance was to the Biden family – not to the presidency, not to the American people, not to the country, but to the Biden theology,” Tapper and Thompson wrote, according to Fox News.
Anonymous sources previously told The New York Post last year that Bernal had allegedly “bullied and verbally sexually harassed colleagues” for over 10 years but was considered to be “untouchable” due to his close relationship with Jill Biden.
“I don’t think people understand how much power and influence he has,” one of the sources said.
