The Lincoln Project convinced Democratic donors to part with $39,384,397 in Q3. It burned a staggering $13 million on operating expenditures, made $23.9M of IEs (mostly routed into its founders firms), and ended with $13.2M on hand. https://twitter.com/CATargetBot/status/1316358128062013443">https://twitter.com/CATargetB...
Among @ProjectLincoln& #39;s Q3 donors, $300,000 from liberal dark money group Sixteen Thirty Fund https://twitter.com/CATargetBot/status/1316358194109710340">https://twitter.com/CATargetB...
Catering to #Resist donors has been a lucrative reversal of fortune for the Lincoln Project& #39;s founders. Reed Galen& #39;s Summit Strategic was paid $18.8M in Q3, Ron Steslow& #39;s TUSK Digital got $8.7M, Kurt Bardella& #39;s Endeavor Strategy got $153K
Nice work if you can get it. Lincoln Project founder Reed Galen& #39;s Summit Strategic logged $129,668 in expenditures for lodging reimbursement in August.
The turnaround for Galen& #39;s firm is particularly pronounced, coming off a 2018 cycle where its only receipts from a federal client amounted to $12,000 from an IE backing a GOP primary challenger to Dana Rohrabacher.
Looking through the top transactions, the amount spent on & #39;Research Services& #39; suggests they& #39;re overpaying for someone to trawl through twitter to snatch up other people& #39;s content.
