![Principles First™ conservative Heath Mayo is just so shocked and disappointed that the Lincoln Project '[has] gone completely off the rails'](https://media.townhall.com/cdn/hodl/tw/images/up/2021/02/shocked-woman-vintage-1052x615.jpg)
The Lincoln Project was never really OK to begin with, but lately, they’re extra-not-OK.
This is from just the last 24 hours or so:
- YIKES! Lincoln Project just LOSES it posting private DMs between Jennifer Horn (she did not consent) and journo Amanda Becker in NASTY thread (screenshots)
- What a DOLT! Rick Wilson couldn’t stop himself from BRAGGING about Lincoln Project pilfering Jennifer Horn’s private messages
- Happy birthday, Abe! Yashar Ali reports that ‘the FBI is investigating allegations against Lincoln Project co-founder John Weaver’
- ‘The damage is done’: Glenn Greenwald turns his attention to the Lincoln Project — and gives them a taste of their own medicine
How could something like this have happened? They seemed like such a great group of serious, responsible, conservative people.
Principles First™ conservative Heath Mayo, for one, is stunned that the Lincoln Project has fallen so far:
The Lincoln Project and those managing it have gone completely off the rails and should be unconditionally condemned by everyone in the principled movement.
The org is behaving like a third grader in many ways—exactly like the man they were formed to oppose. A terrible shame.

I think this might be an over-reaction, Heath. They deleted the thread and didn’t run away from the things they were accused of. We should always reject those who don’t put #PrinciplesFirst, but I’m not sure the Lincoln Project is in that group.

It’s not just the tweet thread. It’s their knowledge of Weaver’s conduct and the amount of money they have paid themselves in connection with their services to the group.

Heath’s finger is so firmly on the political pulse that he doesn’t seem to realize what literally every intellectually dishonest person knew about the Lincoln Project from the beginning: that they’re absolute garbage.
This has been true since its inception. You're only now figuring it out? https://t.co/eBe5fKpqa1

They were always like this….

They were always off the rails.

They’ve always been this way, Heath

This is how the Lincoln Project acted from day 1.
The only reason so many ignored it was because they were running under the premise of "Republicans against Trump."
They knew exactly what they were doing (and about Weaver's predatory behavior), and they made millions doing it. https://t.co/Tp3QTAeZtI

Now that the walls appear to be closing in fast on the Lincoln Project, even some of their most steadfast rats are starting to jump ship. If nothing else, it’s entertaining to watch loyal fans like Heath Mayo scramble to distance themselves from the inferno.

Most of us woke up to this fact months ago, @HeathMayo, while you were still egging on @ProjectLincoln. pic.twitter.com/tBceQLOffu

Sad, Heath. Sad!
