She made it clear in her letter that she doesn’t agree with how the group is managed:
would love to know what this means: “It is clear at this point that my views about how the Lincoln Project’s efforts are managed, and the best way to move the Lincoln Project forward into the future in the wake of these awful events, have diverged.’’https://t.co/M2TLObwC2r

The Lincoln Project, however, says it was a contract dispute:
Horn didn’t elaborate on their diverging interests. But the organization just gave a statement insisting this was a contract dispute. Story updated shortly.

I know of at least 3 more outlets who have reached out to me and my sources saying they're working on follow up stories on Weaver and the Lincoln Project. https://t.co/VpYuuEwVBR

Well, this isn’t hard:
Sounds like she has more principle than @stuartpstevens, @SteveSchmidtSES and @TheRickWilson added together. https://t.co/oQRXyBw4I6

Now, it’s time for her to go public:
She should be encouraged to go public on matters of principle, conscience, & complicity. https://t.co/FtauCOPeEB
