Today we learned more about how awful @ProjectLincoln is.

If you’re wondering how these guys survived for so long, it’s because tons of people in the media & beyond boosted this pack of no-good grifters.

And I’ve got the receipts to remind them.⤵️

After @ProjectLincoln got started, tons of media poured endless attention into them because they said mean things about Trump.

Places like @CNN were happy to hype the group up without pausing to consider if they might be awful.

could’ve been confused for @ProjectLincoln press secretary there for awhile.

got a lot of truly fawning coverage. This first story from @washingtonpost is indicative of the broader pattern.

I mean, seriously? Their plan “for preserving the union”?

The most egregious was probably this @NewYorker story from @williams_paige (it was a front page feature!) that made these guys out to be heroes.

I mean, c’mon!
