Critiquing the Lincoln Project

Rich Lowry takes on the Lincoln Project in his latest column.

Here’s one paragraph:

It’s hard to maintain the fiction of the Lincoln Project as a Republican group when Weaver gave a defensive-sounding interview to The Washington Post promising to support the agenda of a prospective President Biden and attack Republicans for opposing him.

Here’s the last paragraph of the article:

Most of the project’s ad buys are for show and, regardless, they are a pittance compared to all of the other advertising out there genuinely designed to persuade voters. The group got a dubious write-up from the Center for Responsive Politics earlier this year, pointing out its unusual spending practices. But, hey, it’s good work if you can get it — and lack the self-respect to turn it down.
