The Lincoln Project, a super political action committee that aims to bring down former President Trump in the U.S. Republican Party, has been exposed for sending sexually explicit messages to dozens of young men by its co-founder, John Weaver. This Republican Party establishment “Sichuan black” organization continues to blow itself up, a number of important cadres have resigned.
The married Weaver served as a senior staffer for the late Republican heavyweight Senator John McCain (R-Ariz.). According to the New York Times, 21 men have accused Weaver of sexually harassing them online, with the youngest victim being 14 years old. Weaver reportedly offered employment opportunities and political privileges in exchange for sex, and one of the men claims to have had sex with Weaver without getting half the benefits he promised.
The conservative website Gateway Pundit commented that this was an open secret, but the Lincoln Project acted as if they were unaware of Weaver’s scandal and claimed they were “absolutely shocked and disgusted” by Weaver’s behavior. Despite the tough talk, three Lincoln Project staffers and a co-founder have resigned.
Kurt Bardella, a spokesman for the Lincoln Project, confirmed to the U.S. news site Axios that he resigned on December 12; columnist Tom Nichols also announced his resignation as an unpaid consultant to the organization, and Nayyera Haq, a well-known television critic who was scheduled to host the organization’s audio-visual series, also begged to resign last week. (Nayyera Haq), who was scheduled to host the organization’s audio-visual series, also begged off last week.
Steve Schmidt, one of the co-founders of the Lincoln Project and a former Republican Party strategist, also issued a statement confirming his resignation. Schmidt said in the statement that he only learned of the allegations against Weaver in January. Schmidt assisted President George W. Bush Jr. in the White House and ran the late Senator McCain’s general election in 2008.
The eight co-founders of the Lincoln Project are all very prominent, except for Schmidt, who left the Republican Party because of the rise of Trump, all senior Republicans, who have served as top party officials or were heavyweights, assisted two presidents, two former presidential contenders, senators and governors, and most notably George Conway, the husband of former White House senior adviser Kellyanne Conway. The most high-profile is the former White House senior adviser Kellyanne Conway’s Mr. George Conway (George Conway), Mr. anti-Trump fame and his wife is no different.
The Lincoln Project publicly announced its support for Democrat Joe Biden last April, and even advertised for Biden in swing states in June, using a short film with humorous clips to sarcastically attack Trump, bent on preventing his re-election.
