11/ with the @nytimes stated policies on sourcing? I think they regard them the same way @KellyannePolls regarded the Hatch Act. Your story was dead on about a lot of things but you were going for clicks not the truth. The truth is you implicated me for knowing something I — PolitiTweet.org

Steve Schmidt @SteveSchmidtSES

10/ One month before The NY Times @nytimes story @madrid_mike and @ronsteslow took the @ProjectLincoln data hostage and successfully extorted million dollar payouts over my objection. Maybe @nytimes readers should have known the motives of their sources? How does that reconcile — PolitiTweet.org

Steve Schmidt @SteveSchmidtSES

9/ this earlier this week. I think the @nytimes should be ashamed that they granted anonymous cover to the clowns that appeared in the @ProjectLincoln documentary. Have you ever seen a more delusional, angry and vainglorious buffoon than @madrid_mike? — PolitiTweet.org

Steve Schmidt @SteveSchmidtSES

8/ I think there is an aspect of your story that was deeply unfair. John Weaver never set foot in Park City. There were no interns in Park City. The @Showtime documentary proves this. The @ProjectLincoln intern/weaver/Lenti scandal is documented on film.I wrote about — PolitiTweet.org

Steve Schmidt @SteveSchmidtSES

7/ Sarah Lenti is another outrageous player in all of this. She is seen on camera, between emotional breakdowns, mismanaging the organization and running a crazed intern operation that was seeded from John Weaver. — PolitiTweet.org

Steve Schmidt @SteveSchmidtSES

6/ What really happened was @conorjrogers @madrid_mike @ronsteslow and Sarah Lenti were given anonymous source protection in the @nytimes to smear. Each of those people exposed themselves in the documentary as knowing about John Weaver before anyone else. — PolitiTweet.org

Steve Schmidt @SteveSchmidtSES

5/ @maggieNYT falls in this exact category as well. She has acknowledged in writing that she knew about John Weaver for years before the @nytimes published a sensational story which the NYT asserted that Weaver’s misconduct was covered up for financial gain. — PolitiTweet.org

Steve Schmidt @SteveSchmidtSES

4/ The letter is shown as part of the @Showtime @ProjectLincoln documentary and it shown of course by its author @conorjrogers who was granted anonymity by many media orgs to smear people who didn’t know what he knew years before the Lincoln Project started. — PolitiTweet.org

Steve Schmidt @SteveSchmidtSES

3/ My recollection is that you are the first person to tell me about the existence of the letter. That letter written by Conor Rogers was described as containing SPECIFIC allegations of sexual misconduct. The first time I have ever seen that letter is when it appeared on TV. — PolitiTweet.org

Steve Schmidt @SteveSchmidtSES

2/ @conorjrogers is shown on television talking about his relationship with John Weaver and Weavers disgusting conduct towards him. ROGERS THEN JOINED the group that Weaver cofounded. He wrote a letter in June that was received by @reedgalen who covered up that letter. — PolitiTweet.org

Steve Schmidt @SteveSchmidtSES

Here is the problem with your story. Why did you give anonymous sourcing to Sarah Lenti, @madrid_mike @conorjrogers @ronsteslow who all knew about John Weaver and allow them to anonymously attack the people who had no idea. For example? — PolitiTweet.org

Steve Schmidt @SteveSchmidtSES

11/ I would like to see the @ProjectLincoln taken down to the studs after the midterms and made ready for the great fight ahead. I won’t be on board but for those that are they deserve competence, honesty, integrity, transparency and leadership. That means @reedgalen must leave — PolitiTweet.org

Steve Schmidt @SteveSchmidtSES

10/ reform. They should. I tried and when it didn’t happen. I left. @ProjectLincoln played an enormous role in helping defeat MAGA in 2020. It has become a self interested shell of that organization under the selfish and dishonest management of @reedgalen. — PolitiTweet.org

Steve Schmidt @SteveSchmidtSES

9/ deal. Ethics matter. Integrity matters. I urge @TheRickWilson to find a way to return that money and make this right. No one is perfect and Rick has a lot going on. I have never met anyone who works harder. He has to fix this. I hope the donors to @ProjectLincoln will demand — PolitiTweet.org

Steve Schmidt @SteveSchmidtSES

8/ the @ProjectLincoln. Before the organization started @TheRickWilson set up a GO Fund me to make a movie 🎥 about Trump. He raised tens of thousands of dollars 💵 and never made the movie. I asked him about it 500 times. No movie. I was not comfortable with this. It is a big — PolitiTweet.org

Steve Schmidt @SteveSchmidtSES

7/ @TheRickWilson is a brilliant ad maker who clearly should never have any leadership or management responsibilities whatsoever in an organization. His talents should be properly directed. There is another issue that I found troubling and was a big factor in my departure from — PolitiTweet.org

Steve Schmidt @SteveSchmidtSES

6/ to open. I wanted to beat Trump. @reedgalen wanted to be famous and important. There is a shocking and delusional scene at the end of the @ProjectLincoln documentary where Galen says he is the leader of a movement of millions. That makes him as deluded as Trump and MTG — PolitiTweet.org

Steve Schmidt @SteveSchmidtSES

5/ I want this organization, that I founded, to operate at the highest ethical standards. The reason I left @ProjectLincoln was because I gave them an ultimatum. @reedgalen or me. Galen had appointed himself chair of the Board and controlled all the bank accounts that I told him — PolitiTweet.org

Steve Schmidt @SteveSchmidtSES

4/ charge. I want to see complete and total financial transparency around the organization. This means the following: 1. An independent CFO 2. A financial oversight Board made up of @ProjectLincoln donors 3. Quarterly public financial reports. 4. Salary caps for all — PolitiTweet.org

Steve Schmidt @SteveSchmidtSES

3/ @ProjectLincoln Board of Directors that follows best practices and operates at the highest ethical standards. I have complete confidence in the integrity, competence and judgement of @JoeTrippi and @stuartpstevens. LP donors can also. I wouldn’t give a penny while Galen is in — PolitiTweet.org

Steve Schmidt @SteveSchmidtSES

2/ The Galen lie cost millions of dollar of @ProjectLincoln money and bankrupted the organization. There is only one other place in America where such conduct is acceptable. Maro Lago, home of MAGA. @stuartpstevens and @JoeTrippi should constitute a new, professional and diverse — PolitiTweet.org

Steve Schmidt @SteveSchmidtSES

I would like to see the following things happen. 1. @reedgalen must step down from the @ProjectLincoln board because his lie and coverup destroyed the organization as much as @madrid_mike @ronsteslow and @madrid_mike @JenniferHorn did with their fame seeking and narcissism. — PolitiTweet.org

Steve Schmidt @SteveSchmidtSES

.@ProjectLincoln should either be professionalized and reformed or shut down. I founded it. i left it a year ago. The @Showtime documentary documents some of the most despicable and unethical behavior I have ever seen. — PolitiTweet.org

Steve Schmidt @SteveSchmidtSES

Yes. 👇 — PolitiTweet.org

Steve Schmidt @SteveSchmidtSES

@reedgalen spent millions of dollars of DONOR a money on Law Firms and Crisis Firms to cover up the fact that he received a letter from @conorjrogers about John Weaver. That money would have been better spent on a bonfire. Give money to candidates not the @ReedGalen show. Scam — PolitiTweet.org

FREE READ: “The total cost of Lincoln Project donor money to pay legal bills & settlements arising from the Steslow/Madrid/Horn shakedowns is astonishing. They total millions of dollars that could have been much better spent on literally almost anything.”https://t.co/Kl7QNXz8OY — PolitiTweet.org
