Nice work if you can get it: Looks like The Lincoln Project made out like bandits in 2022

Get a load of those “other disbursements” in the Expenditure Summary. What sorts of other disbursements are we talking about, exactly?

The Lincoln Project wraps up 2022 having raised $12.6M, spending ~$1M on political independent expenditures, w/the remaining $11.8M going to assorted other operating expenditures (chiefly legal fees/payouts and #resist-funded generational wealth transfers to the usual suspects). https://t.co/ZB28EW8CSa pic.twitter.com/NKk68y40Br

$11.8 million. That’s a whole lotta pineapples.

Among the Lincoln Project's 2022 top vendors:

$1.7M Lever Communications (Joe Trippi)
$792K Summit Strategic (Reed Galen)
$595K Manhattan Creative (Joey Wartnerchaney)
$501K Message Mountain (Stu Stevens)
$450K Intrepid Media (Rick Wilson)
$445K Third Act Media (Ben Howe) https://t.co/d4kxg2kQbb

Dang. Break me off a piece of that, you know what I mean? I don’t know about you guys, but I could sure use the extra cash. Of course I’d also have to be willing to steal it from people and lie all the time, and I draw the line at theft and willful dishonesty. It’s just how I was raised. But clearly The Lincoln Project doesn’t get hung up on stuff like that. Moral bankruptcy is probably very liberating, not to mention lucrative.

They spent $550,000 on their podcast lmao https://t.co/0iiNuogjI1

Well, you know what they say: there’s no such thing as a free lunch podcast.

We can all learn from these titans of industry. #griftliving

Oh, we’ve definitely learned a lot from them. But even moreso, we’ve learned a lot about them, too. It’s been a very educational few years, hasn’t it?

I am shocked that what we confidently guessed about The Lincoln Project is proven to be true

How much did they pay the guys with the tiki torches?

— Just Evan™ (@EvanPrinciple) February 1, 2023

Ooo … good question! Probably not as much as they paid themselves, but hopefully the fake neo-Nazis at least got a few bucks for their troubles.

I'm amazed there are still people stupid enough to willingly give these clowns 💰 https://t.co/D5AI8o90Yd

I feel fully justified in laughing at the fools who gave these grifters their money.

Because I, and many others, warned them that these guys were nothing but grifters.

The Lincoln Project is one of the most brazen and transparent cons ever. The people who run and promote it continue to self-enrich right before the eyes of their donors and do nothing else. They got and get millions of free ads from MSNBC to help bilk gullible liberals for this: https://t.co/7s9przjNmL

It’s really a pretty sweet little scam they’ve got going over there.

Occasional reminder that @ProjectLincoln is just a bunch of worthless has-beens enriching themselves by pretending to change the outcome of elections, when in fact they’re just scamming naive democrats out of money — which is kind of hilarious. https://t.co/SwfKcfWwU4

Anyone who’s still sending these guys money at this point kinda deserves to get fleeced. Because clearly if you’re one of those people, you really have no business having money in the first place. You don’t know how to use it.
