Lincoln Project degenerate Rick Wilson is really upset (He should be happy because he makes his money from deranged Democrats)

“The Democratic Party’s never-ending witch-hunt of President Trump hit a new low today. In jurisdictions wholly controlled by the Democratic Party our nation’s justice system is now compromised by extremist left-wing politics. We have allowed false and totally made-up claims from troubled individuals to interfere with our elections, doing great damage.... E.

The left-wing Lincoln Project’s ability to pad its wallet with liberal cash while sustaining repeated defeats in attempting to oust conservatives has apparently spawned an imitator. The New York Times reported that a new political super PAC called Mission Democracy would raise money to toss conservative stars out of Congress...

Billionaire Hansjörg Wyss, a Swiss national who lives in Wyoming, has become a “Democrat-aligned mega-donor,” according to the Associated Press (AP), thanks to his funneling hundreds of millions of dollars to left-wing groups. “Newly available tax documents show that his giving through the Berger Action Fund, which describes itself as advocating for ‘solutions to some of our world’s biggest problems,’ swelled in 2021 to $72 million, cementing Wyss’ status as a Democratic-aligned megadonor,” the AP reports. Wyss, who built his fortune creating the medical device company Synthes USA, which was sold in 2012 to Johnson & Johnson for $20 billion,...

The Lincoln Project has taken aim at Florida Governor Ron DeSantis for saying that he doesn’t know where he was on 9/11. In an ad, the political action committee formed by moderate Republicans, slammed the GOP leader for comments he made during an interview, dubbing him “not ready for primetime”. Piers Morgan sat down earlier this week with the Florida governor, who it’s widely believed will challenge former president Donald Trump for the 2024 Republican presidential nomination. During the interview, Mr DeSantis was asked where he was on the day that the terrorist attacks took place. He appeared to fumble...

President Donald Trump, at CPAC 2023, calls out the 'perverts' in the fake news media who want to 'lynch' him for anything he does.

During the 2016 elections, Kellyanne served first as a campaign advisor to candidate Trump and then as his campaign manager, while her husband co-founded the Lincoln Project with the express purpose of keeping Trump out of the White House. After the inauguration, she became senior counselor to the president, while George continued to lambast Trump at every opportunity on social media.

I have some genuine questions and I have no malice against Ron DeSantis or his supporters but a few things trouble me about him! He has the tacit support of the Bushes. I know they want anyone but Trump but as one Freeper put it: Will he blow kisses back? What does having their support mean? Does it mean Karl Rove becomes an advisor? Campaign cash, staff and what not? Think about it. It's not just some throw away endorsement by them it comes with serious muscle, donors, etc. He's also visiting Texas instead of CPAC. Will he be hanging...

Governor Chris Sununu (R-NH) said Tuesday on FNC’s “Special Report” that Americans were “moving on” from former President Donald Trump in the 2024 Republican primary. Sununu said, “The race for president hasn’t really started. No one’s really thinking that way. Remember, we’re just coming out of November of ’22. And, you and I are in this world talking about it all the time, but the average American, they’re dealing with inflation, they’re dealing with high housing prices, record debt at the household level.” He continued, “And look, my message to, about President Trump is we thank you for your service....

Gov. Chris Sununu has launched a fundraising vehicle to solicit unlimited contributions from national donors, a key step as he pursues a potential presidential candidacy in 2024. Sununu first confirmed to NBC News Wednesday that he had formed the "Live Free or Die" committee, a 501(c)(4) organization that permits politicians to raise unlimited money without disclosing the donations. Former U.N. Ambassador Nikki Haley and former Vice President Mike Pence, who are also eyeing presidential runs, have already formed similar committees. Haley, the former Republican governor of South Carolina, is expected to formalize her run for president next week. [cut] “I’m...

Twitter users mocked The Lincoln Project congratulating President Biden for shooting down the Chinese spy balloon and lowering inflation in what many saw as a tone-deaf tweet on Saturday. Although this balloon was spotted in Montana on Wednesday, the U.S. waited until Saturday when the balloon had passed over the Atlantic Ocean to shoot it down. Many political figures criticized this hesitation, but the anti-Trump organization celebrated the move and bragged about the president’s accomplishments on Twitter. “Balloon down, just like inflation. Joe did that,” The Lincoln Project tweeted along with a video of Biden saying “We’re going to take...

Two network news veterans and key players from the Lincoln Project are teaming up to launch a "pro-democracy" media company on the same day that former President Trump is expected to announce his 2024 bid. Why it matters: The founders of the new website, Resolute Square, say they aim to counter the right-wing media ecosystem — and be a home to people who reject political extremism and the GOP.

Vote Latino President María Teresa Kumar argued on Saturday that gerrymandering was a factor in Gov. Ron DeSantis’ re-election, despite his race being a statewide office. Kumar appeared as a guest host on MSNBC’s "Velshi," where a panel discussed former President Trump’s effect on the Republican Party. The discussion soon focused on DeSantis as a kind of successor to "Trumpism" for his rise in popularity However, Kumar claimed that his success, even in the state of Florida, is due not to DeSantis’ record as governor, but because he "gerrymandered" the state. "Is Ron DeSantis Trump 2.0? And a lot of...

Lincoln Project co-founder George Conway said Friday on CNN’s “Anderson Cooper 360” that Donald Trump was in “substantial peril” after Attorney General Merrick Garland appointed Special Counsel Jack Smith to oversee the probes into the former president. Guest host John Berman asked, “So, George, what does the appointment of a special counsel tell you about the former president’s legal situation in regard to these two cases?” Conway said, “Well, he has the right to remain silent. He probably should exercise that right tonight, but he won’t. I think he’s in substantial peril. I’ve thought that he’s been in substantial peril...

Lincoln Project adviser Stuart Stevens emphasized Saturday that the group is set on “burning” the current Republican Party to the ground rather than simply opposing Donald Trump. Stevens appeared on MSNBC’s “Alex Wagner Tonight” to discuss the results of the midterm elections with fill-in host Ali Velshi. After many Trump-backed candidates lost their elections, Velshi questioned Stevens about whether this will force Republicans to “fix” themselves to have a “normal party.” “I guess the repudiation of some of the big, as you call it, waving-the-bloody-shirt election deniers in this election could do two things. One, it could cause Republicans, like...

Attorney and anti-Trump Republican George Conway said on Sunday on MSNBC’s “The Katie Phang Show” that a 2024 GOP presidential primary between former President Trump and Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis would be “the mud fest to end all mud fests,” adding that he doesn’t believe the governor will run. “The way you go after Trump is to go after him hammer and tong, and Trump is going to go right back,” Conway said while discussing a potential GOP primary match-up.

On Tuesday evening (Oct 2015), establishment Republican consultant Rick Wilson said the GOP establishment donor class must find a way to “put a bullet” in GOP frontrunner Donald Trump. In an interview with MSNBC’s Chris Hayes, Wilson conceded that “Trump is still a very powerful force right now” because he appeals to part of the of the conservative base that Wilson said was activated by his “nativist” message. Wilson insisted that the donor class “can’t just sit back on the sidelines and say, ‘oh well, don’t worry, this will all work itself out.’” “They’re still going to have to go...

Up and down the line of current and former RINOs who continue to be Never-Trumpers, there is a trend. The very people who claim Republicans abandoned “true conservatism” by supporting Donald Trump are not out there fighting for limited government or attacking woke culture. Instead, they’re invariably letting their true colors shine by endorsing Democrats, embracing wokeness, and defending the Biden-Harris regime’s disastrous policies. From Liz Cheney to the Lincoln Project, Never-Trumpers are going full-blown leftist in their efforts to stop Donald Trump. This is confusing, of course, because by their reckoning Trump lost “fair and square” in the 2020...

The Lincoln Project, which consisted of never Trumpers who opposed Trump in 2020, was widely supported by much of the media. However, the Lincoln Project's reputation has fallen so low due to financial and sex scandals that even Politico is now portraying its leaders as a bunch of greedy grifters in its review of a Showtime documentary about that organization.Of course, it would have been nice if Politico had been as candid about the Lincoln Project back in 2020 instead of waiting until after that election was safely in the rear-view mirror. You get a sense of this new attitude...

Lincoln Project founder Rick Wilson said Wednesday on MSNBC’s “The Beat” that “society” has to “strap up and decide we’re going to push back against” the dangerous Republican Party. Guest anchor Katie Phang said, “Election workers are increasing security around polling places before the midterms. Is this the new reality in America now where we have to have armed guards for people to exercise their right to vote?”
