As I noted at the time, that report said members of the group had known about Weaver’s behavior for months.” Nothing about this bunch of grifters suggests that anyone involved has any principles. Scandal-Plagued Grift Factory The Lincoln Project Is Cleared of Any Wrongdoing...by The Lincoln Project You may have noticed over the past 6 months that the infamous anti-Trump political group The Lincoln Project has not been as big of a fixture in the media. In January, news broke that co-founder and senior partner John Weaver had been engaged in an ongoing effort of grooming underage males for sexual relationships. Nearly two dozen individuals have come forward to show that, over the years, Weaver had been in contact with them and used the lure of jobs and other promised perks in exchange for sexual favors. Now the group comes forward to claim that it has been cleared of culpability on the matter of Weaver’s predations. In a statement released by two members, The Lincoln Project declares that, after a four-month investigation, there has been no evidence found that major players in the organization were aware of Weaver’s behavior before it hit the news. There are a number of things blatantly wrong with this impotent attempt at exoneration. First item to note, this announcement is being made by the guilty party, not the investigative team. It is in typical TLP shady form that they come forward to state, “Hey, look at that — we’re innocent!” Next, one of the biggest problems is this investigation was undertaken in February and is claimed to have been conducted by an “independent” law firm, named Paul Hastings LLP. The first sign of trouble here is that no fewer than five members of the firm, including one of its managing partners, were donors to The Lincoln Project.

B-Man Posted July 7, 2021 Posted July 7, 2021 There was a time where opposing illiberal indoctrination of children was a universal principle on the right. At least, it was when there was no chance of actually succeeding in stopping it. Now that it appears conservatives may have actually gotten the drop on a major cultural issue, the establishment class is working against the very outcomes they once claimed to desire. That came to a head yesterday when David French and several other ostensibly right-leaning minds rushed to The New York Times to pen a rebuke of figures like Gov. Ron DeSantis who have dared to use the state legislative process to eradicate CRT from school curriculums. Instead, the suggestion was that parents should simply sue if they encounter a problem. You know, because parents have hundreds of thousands of dollars and years of their life to spend in court in the hopes of receiving a narrow victory that won’t even be relevant by the time it arrives. That’s the pure brilliance of Conservative Inc. on display. Of course, the fact that the Times article in question also completely misread the very laws that were being commented on also represented a problem. Later, Thomas Williams, who co-authored the piece with French, would claim that it’s authoritarian for parents to affect school curriculums via their elected officials. The charge to “propose better curriculum” is a purposeful misdirect from the issue. You do not need to propose better curriculum in order to not teach CRT. You simply need to not teach CRT. To do so would be an affirmative decision and one well within the purview of state representatives to be involved in. As to enforcing civil rights laws, that is perhaps the most beltway take I’ve ever seen. It is asking parents to abdicate their power of representation via elections to instead fight lengthy, expensive, uncertain battles through the court system. It’s an asinine suggestion that is meant to be ineffective while giving the appearance of offering an alternative solution. As I said in my write-up on the Times article yesterday, the losing is the point. Regardless, getting back to French and other Conservative Inc. thinkers, claiming it is authoritarian to limit the power of government employees and public-sector unions is certainly a take. It’s amazing how malleable principles become when they conflict with the gravy train. There is no logical argument that it is authoritarian for parents via their elected representatives to oversee and check the bureaucratic state, which public schools are part of. In fact, the opposite is true, and until five minutes ago, all conservatives agreed with that notion. Yet, here we are, with some on the right actually making that case. I’m sure it’s just a coincidence they are doing so in the pages of the Times, a far-left newspaper. Conservative Inc. (like The Lincoln Project) is gasping for air, desperately trying to present themselves as the only principled figures left in the country. The reality is that they are shifting their views far more than those they continually criticize. Their arguments against stopping CRT are conveniently crafted to ensure defeat while also placating their true intended audience, which isn’t conservatives but left-leaning urbanites. These people have no new ideas and are unwilling to engage on the most important issues. This is correct. The supposedly most intellectual thinkers on the right were content to sit on the sidelines while CRT overtook schools. They were fine with waiting for it to become so ingrained that it couldn’t be removed. That would have meant more lawsuits and more money for lawyers like French and think tanks that only exist to fight problems they refuse to solve. Now, these grifters are objecting, insisting that conservatives lose yet another major cultural battle, this one dealing with something as serious as the mental health of children. https://redstate.com/bonchie/2021/07/07/the-fight-over-crt-has-conservative-inc-gasping-for-air-n407525 1
