Can you imagine the Lincoln dudes going “Yep we stand by this!”
This is why I don’t get the anger at Lincoln Project dudes. If Biden wins they have to defend shit like this for 4 years, and it’s endlessly hilarious. Schmidt & Wilson and their toadies becoming David Brock 2.0 will NEVER not be funny.

Facebook + Twitter censored the New York Post pending fact check review. That was 7 days ago. Neither have offered a follow up explanation as to what their fact checkers found or why the New York Post is still locked out. My latest for @SpectatorUSA spectator.us/unanswered-que…
No news outlets have disputed any facts in the New York Post story. The Biden campaign has not refuted any of the facts in the New York Post story, which explains why they are all tweeting about Borat now instead. spectator.us/unanswered-que…
The language used by Twitter and Facebook was very specific as to why they were blocking the story - pending fact check reviews. They have since refused to follow up on what is disputed in the story, by design. spectator.us/unanswered-que…
The NY Times in 2008 reported it was a concern with Obama’s team in picking him because of Hunters ties to a bank lobby which then Biden later supported legislatively.
Politico wrote a similar story in 2019.
Now emails show what looks to be shady dealing as well.
There are lots of stories about the story. Those are neat. But not a lot of work checking to see if the story is accurate or not. Not a lot of journalists seem interested in confronting that one, which is itself a fascinating media story @benyt
I’m fully willing to believe and retweet any story from any outlet that pokes holes in the facts and the legitimacy of the emails. But no one has done that yet. That seems odd to me.
Because these are the same people who paved the way for him to get into office and I don't think they should just be made to wash their hands of it. Trump is very temporary. He'll be gone in either 4 months or 4 years. The people who enabled him will still all be there.
Wilson created ads attacking veterans, comparing them to Al-Qaeda and Saddam Hussien. Charlie Sykes made David Clarke a national name. Steve Schmidt chose McCain's running mate. Jeff Zucker - Period. And then they all just went "Hey, we have nothing to do with this" Sorry nope.
At each and every turn they played a role in steering the GOP toward Trump and then all walked away and straight into Jeff Zucker's arms or Morning Joe. Yeah sorry, doesn't work like that.
