The Lincoln Project

[Big Blitz]

Another fraud.  Like the sexual predators that founded the Lincoln Project bc the Neo Cons behind it knew they were going to be out of work for quite some time and were already broke.  In comes Dem Super PAC money.  
 

 

Same with this moron.  

 

 

 

 

The Lincoln Project implodes amid infighting and scandal

 

The Lincoln Project, the anti-Donald Trump political outfit, imploded Friday evening amid mounting criticism of its handling of sexual misconduct allegations against one of its co-founders and of the management of its finances. 
 

Steve Schmidt, a prominent political strategist and one of the original co-founders of the organization, on Friday evening became the latest in a string of departures from the group. In a lengthy statement, Schmidt said he was “incandescently angry” about allegations that former Lincoln Project leader John Weaver sent sexually explicit text messages to young men.

 

Weaver, who is married with a wife and two children, has acknowledged sending “inappropriate” messages to men.

 

Then, on Thursday, the Associated Pressreported that more than half of the organization’s funding had been directed to consulting firms that had been controlled by Lincoln Project officials — a massive sum that fed accusations that leaders had enriched themselves. The crisis intensified later in the day, when the Lincoln Project’s Twitter feed posted screenshots of private online messages between Horn and Amanda Becker, a reporter for 19th News who had been working on a story about the organization’s work culture.

 

The Lincoln Project deleted the screenshot, but not before sparking intense backlash. Schmidt apologized for the episode in his statement, saying, “it is my job as the senior leader to accept responsibility for the tremendous misjudgment to release” the messages.

 

The Lincoln Project’s funders have begun distancing themselves. Senate Majority PAC, the top Democratic outside group focused on Senate races, and Majority Forward, an affiliated nonprofit, gave $1.9 million to Lincoln Project in October, at the height of the election. Lincoln Project had been spending on ads against GOP senators, including in critical races in South Carolina and Maine.

Shameless, but I am a firm believer in both fate and karma.

Pouring one out for the world’s biggest, and likely only, LP fan by resurrecting this thread.

LOL.  For those of you who own real estate, look at your deeds - the consideration probably says $1.00 & More.  It's not uncommon in Florida for deeds to recite consideration of $10.00.  Does this stooge think that a Notary Public is supposed to examine the document for veracity or accuracy?
