This is what happens when MAGA goes unchecked

The Lincoln Project   Friend:  Texas is what happens when the new MAGA party can work unchecked.  From not connecting their power grid (leaving too many to freeze to death earlier this year) to their assault on voting rights to now one of the most draconian anti-woma…

You made this possible

The Lincoln Project   Friend -  You and everyone else who supports this work we do continue to make it possible for us to put out the kind of ads we produce. We’ve always leaned on our visual storytelling because we believe it cuts to the heart of the problems we ne…

You call this pro-life?

The Lincoln Project   Friend,  DeSantis continues to count the lives of Florida’s children as collateral damage as he builds his platform to take the White House from the Governor’s Mansion in 2024.  But Florida is seeing through his lies. Our latest ad has Florida v…

Don’t be fooled, Friend

The Lincoln Project   Friend,  Ever since one of the authoritarian mob’s cheerleaders went on a weeklong love-fest with a dictator, their playbook is becoming increasingly open.  Look at the major stories right now and let’s unpack how each of them are being used to …

An overwhelming response... and what we’re going to do about it

The Lincoln Project   Friend,  This week we asked you to tell us your priorities in the fight against Trump and Trumpism so we can focus our resources on the issues that matter most. Tens of thousands of activists like you answered our call.  The results aren’t surpr…

Out of control: This Week in the Republican Party

The Lincoln Project   Another week of chaos and corruption, Friend! This week, the Trump mob showed that they’ve become a monster not even Trump can control. The anti-vax conspiracies and whispers of election overturn have taken hold so deeply that now only the My Pi…

Tell us: Where should we focus?

The Lincoln Project   Friend,  Fighting Trump and Trumpism has become about much more than just the ballot box and election years. It’s about revealing the rot in every corner of Trump’s GOP. Our fight is now to unmask their epidemics of grifting, life-threatening CO…

Next stop on Trump’s super spreader tour

The Lincoln Project   Get ready to rumble, Friend.  The next stop on Donald Trump’s super-spreader tour of anti-vax propaganda, bruised-ego election lies, and 2024 hate campaign is today in Cullman, Alabama! Killing 620,000 Americans by knowingly downplaying COVID, …

It mattered.

The Lincoln Project   Friend,  When America was attacked almost 20 years ago, Americans answered the call. Many were young men and women. They fought and died in places with names they had never heard and few other Americans remember.  They weren’t serving as Democra…

The truth about DeSantis

The Lincoln Project   Friend, now we’ve got it. Turns out, Ron DeSantis’ whole “my freedoms” shtick was a con. Of course it was. The whole reason he’s been so anti-mask and vaccine mandates? DeSantis has gotten over $10m in campaign funds from the biggest investor in…

First Abbott. Now DeSantis.

The Lincoln Project   Friend,  Last week we released our ad “Back to School” calling out Texas Gov. Greg Abbott and Florida Governor Ron DeSantis for endangering the lives of school children with their anti-vax, anti-mask COVID conspiracies. Since then, you’d like to…

We made an ad. Greg Abbott got mad. Water is wet.

The Lincoln Project   Friend,  Make ad. Air ad. Right-winger loses his mind, attacks the Lincoln Project. Sound familiar? Texas Governor Greg Abbott would rather play to the MAGA mob than keep Texans safe. He's costing lives. So we called him out on it. When Abbott …

Is Trump president again?

What’s a week’s worth of chaos in Trump’s GOP?

It’s time to go back to school

MTG’s in Twitter jail but you need to watch this leaked footage

Why we have to care about what’s going on in Hungary

The Lincoln Project   Tucker Carlson went to Hungary. He’s filming a week of his crazed, sycophantic, lunatic fringe talk show on-location in one of the most autocratic countries in Europe. It is too easy to shrug your shoulders and write off what he is doing. “Wow! …
