Here is a question for Corporate America @USChamber. How many large corporations have signed statements in support of BLM and expressed goals around increasing racial diversity? How many millions of dollars have some of those very same companies donated to political entities

that have funded the very Senators and Members of Congress that are now engaged in an effort to throw out millions of Black votes for the purposes of keeping a President who lost the election in the White House? How many companies have pumped millions of dollars into entities

controlled by @GOPLeader ? @ProjectLincoln is getting organized for this fight. We will do our best to bring Companies, Firms, Agencies, Boards of Directors, CEO’s, Senior management and trade associations into the sunlight on these issues. We will seek to strangle the money

Flow to the entities that have declared war on American democracy and sought to bring Jim Crow disenfranchisement to our fellow Americans. We will run targeted campaigns to foment employee rebellions and shareholder revolts. Most companies have extremely low pain tolerances.

We will inflict as much public pain as possible around every entity that funds the US Autocratic coalition. @ProjectLincoln is going to reimagine corporate pressure campaigns. There will be accountability imposed on bad actors in the public square. The First Amendment will be

our sword and our shield. We will use it to strike at the unholy alliance that has cynically fueled this autocratic disgrace. The pro democracy side of this fight does not need to prove its virtue through the gentle treatment of our autocratic enemies. They are not opponents.

They have declared war on American democracy and have betrayed the foundational ideas and ideals of the country. There is no middle ground between freedom and autocracy. Everyone will need to choose their side. @ProjectLincoln has chosen ours.
