[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]For those of you who continue to insist that The Lincoln Project is Republican, here is a thread with how closely they are connected with Democrats......He has receipts.

[twitter]https://twitter.com/MatthewFoldi/status/1454544262167683073[/twitter]

And, he summarizes his tweet thread with a tweet that reads:

Tl;dr the Lincoln Project:
- Employs the bank used by all top Democrats, @AmalgamatedBank
- Employs @NGPVAN, which controls the @DNC's voter file
- Receives tens of millions of dollars from liberal billionaires and small dollar donors
- Is not a GOP group *at all*

And, if you want to know where all those donations from liberals went.... pay attention to all the debts these grifters have paid off in the past few years.
