Here's a Tweet from one of the young men Weaver preyed upon.I read the article, but didn't see anything indicating the Lincoln Project knew about these goings on before the election--what makes you say that?They covered up for him. And a 14-year-old is a minor.They weren't minors--young men in college or just startiing out in politics, which is bad enough, but not boys.What they need to be worried about is the mentality that hires pedos.The guy took responsibility, apologized, and quit the Lincoln Project. I don't see what they need to be worried about.The Lincoln Project has other things they need to be worrying about.
Lincoln Project Co-Founder John Weaver Accused by Multiple Young Men of Grooming for Sex
He was a cofounder, not an employee. He's worked for other prominent Republicans, and the Lincoln Project today roundly condemned him for hinting at political breaks for sexual favors.
The Lincoln Project in a statement on Sunday called co-founder John Weaver, 61, “a predator, a liar, and an abuser” following reports that he repeatedly sent unsolicited and sexually charged messages online to young men, often while suggesting he could help them get work in politics.
“The totality of his deceptions are beyond anything any of us could have imagined and we are absolutely shocked and sickened by it,” the Lincoln Project, the most prominent “Never Trump” Republican super PAC to emerge during the 45th president’s time in the White House, said in its statement.
There is no " mentality for hiring pedos" in the Lincoln Project.
LP knew. And they covered it up.
Yes, maybe they did, but Weaver had been gone from the Lincoln Project since the summer, probably for that very reason. They denounced what Weaver did when it became pubilic. He never did anything illegal, so the only recourse they had was to get him out, and they did. Wanting to keep it quiet during the election makes sense to me.
The Lincoln Project does good work. They aren't a bunch of crazy conspiracy theorists and violent yahoos dreaming of taking over the government, so you will keep calling them pedos, of course, because that's what you Trump lovers do.
