GOP group the Lincoln Project says it raised $16.8 million in the second quarter of 2020 as it ramps up its anti-Trump efforts ahead of the general election.
In a filing with the Federal Election Commission posted Wednesday, the group said it spent $7.2 million and has $10.8 million cash on hand. It also owes more than $263,500 in debt.
Among the organization's most prominent donors are billionaire hedge fund manager Stephen Mandel, who gave $1 million, business magnate David Geffen, who gave $100,000, and Bain Capital chairman Joshua Bekenstein, who also gave $100,000.
The Lincoln Project was founded late last year by Republicans disaffected with President Trump, including George Conway, husband of White House counselor Kellyanne Conway, and GOP strategists Rick Wilson and Steve Schmidt, among me.
The group has focused much of its efforts on rapid response advertisements bashing the Trump White House on a slate of issues, including the administration’s response to the coronavirus, which has killed more people in the U.S. than any other country and is seeing a resurgence in many states.

“Mary Elizabeth Jenkins Surratt[1][2][3] (1820 or May 1823 – July 7, 1865) was an American boarding house owner in Washington D.C. in 1865 who was convicted of taking part in the conspiracy to assassinate U.S. President Abraham Lincoln. Sentenced to death, she was hanged and became the first woman executed by the US federal government. She maintained her innocence until her death, and the case against her was and is controversial. “
Isn’t this group founded by a literal Russian agent?
Not like a fake dossier one, but registration with the USA government as an agent?
In a national political sense that’s pocket change.
Evil comes in many forms.
Kellyanne’s Catholic, I believe. So she may not be able to.
This is why Kellyanne isn’t going to divorce Georgie Porgie! He’s making them a lot of money from sucker Democrats.
Tremendous fortunes are spent each election for about 20 years now and the needle is barely moved.
That’s not a whole lot of people out there who haven’t made up their mind yet. I believe that some that say that are lying. likely voting for Trump but don’t want to say it
How much from Russia?
They are spending 89.3% of their money on overheads.
Nice way to get free money. Hey maybe I should set up one of these anti Trump PACS myself. Easy way to make a million.
Read this from MRC:
“Wilson actually flinched when, after the fact that the Lincoln Project spent over 89% of its money on overhead (including salaries) was brought up, one of the cartoon characters noted that “89.3% on overhead sounds like a lot but I can’t get into the right head space to make a ten second ad without wolfing down endangered mollusks in a titanium catamaran with my Bush administration buddies.”
This is a beltway consultant scam. They will pocket most of the money for themselves.
Can someone buy Kristol and Mittens a plane trip over the Bermuda Triangle?
The funders of our fundamental transformation into North Mexico.
Don’t people realize that already! Or do they count on The Young and enthusiastic and naive to get their money?
I get a million emails with the word Trump in it and Donate. I don’t know who it’s from or what it’s going towards but there are a million people out there looking to line their pockets.
One has to be careful when one donates these days
