Days after the NYT reported on Lincoln Project cofounder John Weaver's history of inappropriate sexual behavior toward young men, his colleague Rick Wilson paid off a mortgage for his Florida home a full 16 years ahead of schedule.
Public records show that JPMorgan Chase Bank recently issued a certificate of satisfaction on Wilson's 30-year mortgage, which originated in 2007 for the amount of $200,000.The document confirms that the terms of the mortgage were satisfied on Feb. 5, less than a week after the Times printed its story on Weaver and almost three weeks after the allegations were first published online by the American Conservative and Forensic News.
Seven years earlier, Wilson was hit with a $389,420 tax lien against the same Florida residence. As scandal began to engulf the Lincoln Project, Wilson apparently sought to put his finances in order before donors started to abandon the generously funded super PAC, which fellow cofounder Steve Schmidt had reportedly viewed as a ticket to "generational wealth."
Wilson's decision to pay off his mortgage is already proving fortuitous. In the days since he closed out the $200,000 obligation, the Lincoln Project's donations page went inactive and the Daily Beast put Wilson's podcasting on hold pending a "comprehensive review" of the organization's "operations and culture." The review is being conducted by the law firm Paul Hastings despite the fact that several of its senior partners are Lincoln Project donors.
Wilson, who bought the 5-bedroom,3.5-bathroom house near Lake Jackson in June 2004 for just under half-a-million dollars, has previously faced criticism for shady financial practices. In the early years of Donald Trump's presidency, for example, he launched a GoFundMe campaign that raised nearly $65,000 to produce a film that was never made. Wilson has yet to provide an explanation as to where the money went.

The cesspool that is the Lincoln Project
“Griftin Rick” looks like he’s launched a personal war against Krispy Kreme products...
someone trying to protect assets against forthcoming bankruptcy/lawsuit judgements
Schmidt, meanwhile, used the influx of cash in 2020 to purchase a $1.4 million home in Kamas, Utah. Until recently, he was trying to flip the 5-bedroom, 7-bathroom property with a "stunning" view of the Uinta Mountains for nearly $3 million. Schmidt took the house off the market after reporters started asking questions.
Maybe ol’ Rick used some NYT money to pay off his mortgage early, so that he can now use his home as a dungeon where he kills Trump supporters without being bothered by creditors.

Bush League Republicans are really just Assistant Democrats.
The entire purpose of the GOP since they took over in 1989 has been to block conservatives from stopping the Bush Plan for North Mexico (aka USA).
They have intentionally imported a permanent Democrat majority.
Those pineapples on the lower right look fake ....

I don’t have many good things to say about the Republican version of ACT-UP, but fleecing Democrats of their money certainly gets kudos from me.
They sure do.
In fact it almost appears they were added to the photo.

If that little SOB goes to jail over this it’ll be the best day ever!
You Trump supporters with yer book lernin’...
“Those pineapples on the lower right look fake ....”
**************************************************
Because they ARE fake and have been photoshopped in. I really wish ALL of us on the right would have the integrity to not do such things. Some, sadly, lack such integrity.
What group of never-Trumpers would give them that much money?
Soros and Hillary?
I’ll never forget that.
Not a good look for Donna Lamoan either.
