One of President Donald Trump’s greatest critics has been exposed as having more Russian ties than they allege he has.
After a video of Lincoln Project co-founder Rick Wilson being humiliated in an interview on “Inside the Hill” began circulating Twitter yesterday, Mike Cernovich pointed out that the group’s other co-founder John Weaver is a registered foreign agent for Russia.

Weaver’s registering as a foreign agent was reported by Politico in May of 2019:
John Weaver, the top strategist for John Kasich’s presidential campaign in 2016, has registered as a foreign agent and plans to lobby against potential sanctions on Russia.
Weaver signed a contract last month to lobby on behalf of the Tenam Corporation, a subsidiary of Rosatom, the Russian state-owned nuclear energy company.
Weaver will lobby Congress and the Trump administration on “sanctions or other restrictions in the area of atomic (nuclear) energy, trade or cooperation involving in any way the Russian Federation,” according to a disclosure filing.
The six-month contract is worth $350,000, plus expenses, with an option to extend if necessary. “Time is of the essence in the Agreement,” the contract reads, according to a copy filed with the Justice Department.
Weaver later cancelled the contract when it was made public and reported on, which definitely isn’t at all suspicious.
Ironically, the Lincoln Project does still seem to be still living in the 2017-2019 era of anti-Trump hysteria, when countless figures in the media pretended to take those Trump-Russia conspiracies seriously (or maybe they actually did).
In an ad the Project released earlier this month, they slam Trump as “Comrade Trump,” someone who has “once again” gotten Putin’s blessings in the run-up to the election. That came days after they released an ad accusing Trump of betraying our troops, citing the unverified and uncorroborated report that Russia paid the Taliban bounties to kill American troops.
in American Greatness Jeremy Carl penns a a very rational review on black terrorist movement and marxism: OK, Boomers: BLM Is Not Marxist, It’s Racist
– this is an excellent read and explores that very well that black terrorist movement is pure racism
Gee, you think he would have had an interest in weakening Trump and his support for our energy industry? The liberals sure do love to hear what the Lincoln Project has to say about anything Trump does… I guess they are being duped by the Russians, huh?
Democrats: Russian puppets, as always.
What’s new?
Fdr was a puppet for Stalin
Where is our resident Lincoln Project pompom girl, oops, pom pom ze?
Perhaps greg the imbecile is on suicide watch…
Maybe Rudy Giuliani will soon produce incontrovertible evidence that Russia is paying for the Lincoln Project ads. He was recently seen lurking in the shrubbery near the end of the White House driveway, and lured out with a microphone. There he pointed out that anyone who can’t see that Joe Biden is seriously mentally impaired must be seriously impaired themselves, before tottering of in search of a White House entrance that doesn’t involve a confusing hallway or dangerous ramp.
@Greg: Oh no buddy, you were clearly promoting an organization that has the intention of interfering with our election that has Russian ties! Now will you denounce this organization? You were trying to solicit donations! You must make a full apology then go flog yourself with your Che T-shirt.
Maybe I’ll send them a donation. Russia has pledged to match all contributions between now and November.
This revelation destroys the democrat conspiracy theory that Russia Russia Russia effected the 2016 election in favor of President Trump.
@Greg: Isnt that a 5x match? Seems 150K Russian dollars wiped out Clinton’s unsuccessful campaign of 3/4 of a billion in spending.
No apology from our resident Russian bot, go figure, and he thinks he is the patriot.
I think patriotism involves resistance to dangerous stupidity. The man in the White House has turned wearing masks during a pandemic into a partisan issue. More people are going to become sick and die because of it; the economy will be more seriously damaged, and national unity will be further eroded. It isn’t just a lack of leadership; he’s leading people in the wrong direction, and trying to destroy anyone who dares to point that out.
Masks do not work moron
@Greg:
Hahahaha….
An yet it’s people saying alllivesmatter getting shot or those supporting Trump getting “boycotted”.
I’m afraid reality doesn’t support your claim.
Wearing a mask, and host of other petty issues, has always been the domain of a disinformation media and Democrat party to use as political fodder.
Really? Then text THREE OH…THREE….UH…OH OH OH YOU KNOW THE THING!
You want to stop eroding national unity? Then you and your party need to stop killing black people.
@July 4th American: I love you, but that is false. Masks do mitigate the spread.
Trump does not need to wear one and neither does Biden.
@July 4th American:
They won’t work if you don’t wear one. Good luck with that.
@kitt:
comrade greggy-poo in drag
the lincoln project is HATE America
@Greg: So is Weaver lobbying for Russian energy and Putin for free? He is that dedicated to Russian influence to not accept payment? Regardless, how does it feel to, once again, find yourself being led around by the nose by Russian influencers? This is what happens when you take sides against your country; you get used by the enemy.
Yet you do everything you can to promote it.
It hasn’t been Trump that has been demonizing CHQ, the abundant and effective drug that can mitigate the spread and symptoms of COVID19; it’s been YOU people.
@Deplorable Me, #18:
CHQ? Everyone in the know is moving on to fenofibrate.
@Greg: Silly there have been no human trials yet unlike chq they are busy shoving rna proto types that long term effects are a complete unknown. But the left hates history anyway.
Researchers at the University of Alabama at Birmingham have found that a tissue-specific, non-coding RNA called NEAT1 has a major, previously undescribed role in memory formation. … “NEAT1 is a tissue-specific, non-coding RNA found in the hippocampus region of the brain
Just try to attack the research on fenofibrate cause of where it was done?
@Greg: CHQ was proven effective but you leftists couldn’t stand the fact that there was a cheap and effective treatment and that Trump had identified it. They then made every effort, putting lives at risk, to vilify HCQ. Just for politics.
Please note that the subject is a “trigger” point for Greg’s marching orders, since he is indeed a Left-wing information operative.
He quickly directed the topic from the inherent corruption of the Lincoln Project (because you can’t call all your enemies russian agents and then use russian agents) to the silly subject of Trump wearing a mask.
@Nathan Blue: Greg had to change the subject cognitive dissonance was breaking the rock.
in Powerline today: THE “LINCOLN PROJECT” IS A FRAUD very good read
@Deplorable Me, #21:
Actually, it’s Hydroxychoroquine, or HCQ. After much testing, there’s really not much evidence that it’s useful against COVID-19 infection. There was so much hype about it in the media that it’s now hard for a layman to sort out the facts from the unsubstantiated claims.
Fenofibrate still hasn’t been widely tested. It’s interesting, though, because its theoretical mode of action against one of the most common and dangerous COVID-19 lung complications seems to make sense. If it effectively dealt with that particular symptom, it could buy the body’s immune system time to recognize and effectively deal with the virus. The problem with serious COVID-19 infections is that lethal complications can develop more quickly than the body can respond to the virus that causes them.
Here is the list of Biden’s proposals, drawn from the transcript of the president’s press conference:

Eliminate school choice in Washington, D.C.
Abolish all charter schools.
Ban funding for charter schools in poor neighborhoods.
Abolish educational standards.
Abolish the suburbs with AFFH regulations.
They’re going to rip down the wall.
Trump referred to Biden over 30 times during his press conference, which lasted over an hour.
“There has never been an election where we’ve had this kind of difference,” he said.
Electing Joe Biden is how we get rid of Donald Trump, before Donald Trump gets rid of the rule of law and American democracy.
It’s so bad as things stand now that there’s serious speculation whether Trump will gracefully accept the results of any election that he fails to win. He’s already busily laying the groundwork for a claim that the election will be rigged.
Electing Joe Biden is how we get rid of America as we know it. Donald Trump is the only thing standing between normal Americans and the rabid Marxist left hell bent on totally destroying America. biden has nothing to offer a better America than we have today.
An absurd comment on its face. democrats including greg are un-American. They hate this country. Their actions and words tell us this every day.
greg the imbecile can not refute any of the points of the bumbling brain dead bidens platform. Instead, greg the imbecile thinks each and every one of this platform proposals will make America better. greg is an unabashed jackass…
@Greg:
Wrong again.

That’s how it’s supposed to be done. Not spying on him, his associates and his campaign, not phony dossiers from Russia, not false accusations about “collusion” and not impeachment based solely on rumor and hearsay. THIS is what we’ve been saying for over three years; you just now realized the truth?
Speculation led by the criminal liar that still has not accepted her defeat. You should stop worshiping corrupt, lying, losing incompetents.
@July 4th American: Biden has a plan to complete the destruction of this country that Obama began. Obama came in during a severe recession created by liberal social engineering and almost permanently ruined the economy and nation. Biden would come in after a recession caused by Biden’s business partners, the CCP, and prolonged by the left solely to damage Trump (they never give a shit what harm the do to the nation and the people with their political games) and, beyond any possible argument, catastrophe would ensue.
Minneapolis, NY and Porland are the democrat petri dishes of the Biden policy plan, lets watch the bacteria grow there like mold on bread. As they turn into business ghost towns, the property taxes rise to support their useless programs, the price of U hauls sky rocket, property values plummet.
And the Lincoln project is running smear commercials on the boob tube for Putin.
