"I tweeted one night. Maybe I should talk about Remember Lincoln Project. Offering jobs for for sex to young men. His poor wife would like to know that sweet went viral to say the least thing, at least five million impressions and I and then luckily enough, even though I didn't have at the time I sent the tweet. I didn't have anyone on record. Luckily enough, young men started going on record on their own on Twitter, and they started tweeting the allegations of John Weaver, and I mean, once the dam broke, it broke. There were dozens in an hour in a few hours that were coming forward. One of the most northerly, Scott said men who is an investigative reporter, He on diesel left us and he and many of them were probably more left us. He put out his article accusing John Weaver. He had 50 or so or maybe 60. It was young men coming forward. I had probably 25 or 30. Um, so between the two of us, it was close to 90 or 100. Young men coming forward. The Lincoln Project did not put out a response to either or allegations I went on What Ingram? Ice. I wrote, I show them the article. We talked about it. The Lincoln Project Project did not respond to Laura Ingram Show on Dave remained completely silent until access wrote up total puff piece. On behalf of John Weaver, where John Weaver sat there and said, You know, I'm gay and I have a wife I love and it's really hard for me and I started. All these conversations were consensual. And, um, And you know, I wasn't You know, I didn't think I was playing with an uncle position. But I'm gonna step away from the Lincoln Project so they can pursue truth, injustice or something like that. And Lincoln projects that basically, John statement says it all. We have nothing to act. By the way, they have that. At that point, they did not respond to the idea that he was a predator. They refused to respond at that point to the idea that he was a predator, he said. It was consensual, and they basically seems like by there. Came and took their took his word for it. Um, Finally, three weeks later, The New York Times article which was last Sunday, saying that the men were as young as 14 years old, that he was grooming as a member of the Lincoln Project, and they found 21 more men once again promising jobs and political and career advice and in exchange for sex. Um, at that point of Lincoln Project so that he was a predator that they are, You know, a gas that they are so angry and discussed in their fathers. And how could he they? You know they're wrecked. Wilson was basically crying on a video string yesterday. Um And, uh, you know, they're they're saying that they had no idea that it was that they are They're not, You know, culpable of anything. It was completely disgusting and shocking and they hope law enforcement get involved. Now, let's go back to the 14 year old for a second, because if, in fact they did anything sexual together, that would be a crime. Well, the correspondents time according to size, they didn't even sexual. He kept on like he kept up a relationship. The 14 year old offering him career advice. And then the minute he turned 18 basically was pursuing him for sex. But grooming him for four years. Why? That's really putting in long hours at the office. Yes, so that I don't I don't believe I do know of sexual encounters young men had with John Weaver for a job opportunity. I do know, so I have sources. You've told me that they had a sexual relationship for a job opportunity, by the way, none of which that materialize after the sexual encounter took place s O. I do know that that did happen. I'm 100% certain all That's um, the the thing that by the way since then an intern of Lincoln Project so that he was Room by John We were so wasn't like Rick Wilson's on his podcast said to defect of There's only three people who knew about this. John Weaver himself Gay Twitter, which is not a thing it's called Election Twitter. Um, and media personalities in D. C in Washington. Um, who who have known about this for decades, but he you know, he didn't know because he lives in North Florida. I can tell you. When I started this story, I will tell them all that sort of set up before I I've never dealt with a story on sexual harassment for especially one dealing with young men who are sexually harassed by a man and I called one of my friends who's a very well known writer and journalist, and I said, I'm doing this story. He's that with many stories like this I asked him for advice, and all I said was. It is a political consultant who works in Republican campaign and he said, Oh, John Weaver, right? It was so well known around Washington, D C around political consultants around media personalities. I was astounded it was harder to find people who had not heard something Then people. I'm sure I just can't believe for that. But but it was it was. They basically sat there and said that they heard that he was doing something weird. But that doesn't actually Bring up what did they actually know? What is something weird? I don't believe that anyone of Lincoln Project and knew about the 14 year old. I heard a lot of stories. I never heard that. So I don't believe that they ever heard about a 14 year old. However, they acknowledged saying there was something weird. They acknowledge that they heard of a New York Post story being worked on all summer Mom, the one that I was working on another journalist. My story came out in early January. They said nothing for three weeks about my claims about him being a predator. And Now they are outraged, and now they're threatening. I think to sue anyone who says they knew stuff beforehand. Have you spoken any victims who reached out to any other members of the Lincoln Project to let them know what Weaver was doing? I reached out to one. He didn't want to speak to me. But he publicly made the claim that he called three members of the Lincoln Project, including Mike Madrid, California's on Mike Madrid. Another co founder, Lincoln Project, and he said he spoke to Mike Madrid was blown off and that he spoke to another one. I can remember her blossom. It's fair or something or other on he spoke to her on the phone and she blew him off, but acknowledged that she knew About the sexual assault allegations of sexual harassment allegation. Um, that was the tweet that he put out, But other than that, I have not reached out to people who have reach out to them. I've heard whispers and certainly Interns at the Lincoln Project New. I mean, I've spoken to more than one internal Lincoln Project who all knew what John Weaver was doing some of the more action My best sources are in terms of the Lincoln Project to knew what John Weaver was doing. So the idea that nobody in the building or no, I don't. They even had a building. But nobody in the network knew about John Weaver is seems at least at the very least. Interns are coming forward, saying that they knew because they were profiled and another want victim has said that you spoke to three people, including Mike Madrid. Like I said. Saying he told them he warned them and they were ignored. Do you believe that they didn't respond to your reporting and subsequent reporting? And really, they didn't say anything about it until the New York Times piece because they just assumed that if they didn't talk about it, the mainstream media would cover for them, and no one would hear about it. Well, I I don't know what was in their head..

He was unfit morally. This from the guy. Founding the Lincoln Project, who guard dusky says had two purposes. A grift to make money and is a predatory grooming organization for John Weaver to get young men into bed in that every body knew. That it was one of the worst kept secrets.

Wanting sexual favors. In order for her to get help in politics. Yeah. Right? That's what they did. That's what he did. And now the Lincoln Project is setting him free. He's deceptions are beyond anything any of us could have imagined. And you have people like George Conway, the wife, the husband of Kellyanne Conway, saying I didn't really know. You're in business with him. And it's possible not to know everything about a person you're in business with. I don't disagree about that. But as we're starting to hear this was an open secret.

You know somebody is doing this and you're still willing to work with them. You know this was this was as call Rove is described and others. This was an open well known thing. You can't like somebody like this. Go out there and do these things. Now maybe say, Tony, I never had proof. I only heard stories.

"Come back to the dam prop show we're speaking with Ryan Carr, dusky host of Tack right now and author of They're Not Listening of the Elites created the National Populist Revolution and we're talking about the story that he broke. Of Lincoln Project Co founder John Weaver Lincoln Project that big outfit that was running all those anti Trump adds, positioning themselves as a bunch of Republicans who couldn't stomach Trump because he's unprincipled, and he's a danger to the Republican. So on and so forth. Kellyanne Conway's husband. John Weaver, Steve Schmidt, Rick Wilson and others gave got great profile from the D. C Press corps for obvious reasons because they share a hatred of Trump and Ryan Carr dusky broke the story of John Weaver being a sexual predator. And he was telling us how that all transpired right up until the point where somebody came forward and said on Twitter, this happened to me, and then the whole thing blew up. Yeah, I was able to sit there and actually really sold the text messages and emails I've had from John Weaver for months and months and months and wrote the story of victim then came out and also of the story on his own platform. And he came out two days after I did on Ben. I mean, on between my story, his story and the men online order releasing their own information. It had to be close to 100 young men. The Lincoln Project. In that time all they didn't respond to anything. They didn't say anything. All they did was. It just took John Levers picture off their website, and they kind of hope to run away. Then that fright and Friday news dump When no one's reading the news, Axios, right, they complete nonsense puff piece. About John Weaver that he's gay and struggles with the fact that he has a wife and daughter and that all these messages he deemed appropriate. And you know what? Lincoln Project they didn't say a word about it. Finally, The New York Times comes forward, and they did great reporting they had 21 men who started at the age of 14 years old. Going into even deeper things. This wasn't just somebody who had an inner demon and was, you know, on his second marriage to a woman but was gay. This wasn't somebody who was just having sexual public qualities. This was somebody who was using the trust he built from the institution. We belong to the Lincoln Project. Who prey on young men and tell them I will give you a job if you give me sex. I needed it over and over and over again. He did over 100 times in a five year period. Bill Cosby would blush How John we were acted and would have acted And and and just so we're clear. I mean, you just mentioned it, but I want to put a new underline They're underage boys. Well, the one was 14 years old. I don't according to your time straight they did not meet, but he would constantly right message him and say, when do you graduate high school? Well, and when you turn 18 when you graduate high school, so he wasn't trying to allegedly according to the story, he wasn't trying to sleep with him at 14. He was waiting for him to turn 18 so he could sleep with him. That's grooming and 14 is. Yeah. Yeah, grooming operation with Lincoln Project was and they were completely Silent until they were outraged over son for three weeks. My story has been out. They didn't say a word until the New York Times story came out. And now they say, they're overwhelmingly angry. Give me a freaking break. They were complicity, and by the way, this was the biggest working on the story for the last segment. Seven months I've worked on it. This was the biggest open secret in Washington, D C. I have never gonna start on sexual harassment before, so I called in my friend. She was a journalist who's done many stories on sexual harassment. And I said, How did I approach somebody who's been a victim of sexual harassment? And you know you know how to act. I said they've been sexually harassed by a well known political consultant. He said. Oh, John Weaver. Everyone knew everyone. Everyone everyone, another very well known household name Republican conservative who hates Trump was asking for Lincoln Project and responded. I will never do anything with John. We because he's a creep. Like this is when you're in Washington. See everyone you could I did, They did not know is a complete lie. It's not. I mean, it sounds not to somewhere to Ronan Farrow's work with the Harvey Weinstein. You know it took one or two and then the floodgates open. Yeah, it was, but And that's exactly what itwas by the way. This is not my story as much. It's there. The young guys, young guys who are willing to sit there and go say something, because so many were because they were all afraid and rightfully so. They were afraid and their names. You know, they're not famous people. They're not people who are going to, you know, be on the cable news review Google them forever. Their name is gonna be attached to this. And that's a lot to ask for somebody. So I give him tremendous amount of credit. And this isn't you know that John Weaver was gonna be confirmed to be a Supreme Court judge, and you signed a story for 40 years. This is not he's running for president. All of a sudden, you remember seeing her 20 years ago? This is just I mean this in the last five years. This is up to the summer when he knew I was reporting on it. He knew I was working on it because Molly junk fast. All who's on the daily Beast was calling friends of mine asking how the story can get killed. Everyone. Everyone knew that this was happening. They were lying, and they're covering it up. And by the way, the Lincoln Project co founders were on MSNBC and CNN. 17 times in three weeks after my story came out, Guess how many times They asked them about John Weaver 00 and Molly Jong fast, daily beast. You know these otherwise vanguards of the meat to movement on the advisory board. She's on the advisory board. The Lincoln Project, huh? And, uh, this is a joke. This is the media company. The guy. I'm sorry. So so so The New York Times covers it. You know, one of the other things I've been surprised about this is I read some some about it before speaking with you today. Is it hasn't really been picked up that much by conservative media even and talked about. No, it did I mean, well, when I started when I sent that tweet out right ST dot com didn't article on my tweet. And then daily wire. Daily caller. Bright Bart has, like three articles on that today. They all they all are covering it right now. Yeah and God bless floor Ingram. Laura Ingram had me on the day after my story. Can't she's the only one No. One And this is probably the second entry I have ever done on John Weaver. I've been in the service three weeks besides lower Ingram. No, I'm sorry. The Washington Post, also asking for a statement. So this is the third interview. But besides the Washington Post warning of no one in question No. One. It was like screaming into a void. I was saying, this is a major sexual predator running multi multimillion dollar organization that it's in the media day in and day out. And none of you care well. And your 10.2 about those at the Lincoln Project, too. We're all in this small universe of political consultants and operatives. And as you say it The worst kept secret in inside the Beltway. They This is the year 1999. And so the question 1999 Ryan Godowsky. Great reporting good for you.

"Back to the dam prop show. Well, this has been a story that has been rather muted. Actually, Golly, I wonder why the Lincoln Project and its co founder, John Weaver, was a longtime political consultant out of Texas. He was part of the McCain gang that that serves as this part of the core group of the Lincoln Project. Steve Schmidt being another one. We talked about it a little bit on this show, but I need to talk about a little bit more. Now that Steve that John Weaver, I should say, has been outed as someone who was attempting to prey on young men. Exchanging jobs for Well. Physical relations. Somebody who tweeted about this and in part, got the ball rolling with respected, exposing John Weaver. Is our next guest. Ryan could guard guard dusky Excuse me. Host of tack right now and author of They're not listening how the elites created the National populist Revolution. Ryan. Thanks for joining us. Appreciate it. Thank you for having down. So Yeah. The John Weaver story. I mean, give us your perspective on it Since you were a zoo you wrote about it. American conservative? Yeah. Yeah, you broke the story was the first writer break the story. So, um, I Don't ever follow me on Twitter back in late May of 2020. I didn't really know much about him didn't really care. But he followed me and within a few hours of him following me, I was receiving direct messages from young men. Um, telling me to be on the lookout for John River. I didn't. I'm much older than I look, I'm 33. I look like I'm in my probably my mid twenties according to some people, so they assumed that I was going to be preyed on by John Weaver. So they were trying to give me the warning. So I said, What do you mean? We got the conversation I started speaking to other young men. And try to start pursuing this story for a different outlet. Other than the American conservative where you greet the first story that we broke on January 11th. Started building sources on getting the story ready to work with another outlet and a co writer on it on It was going around that I was working on this Well members, Lincoln Project found out and we're warning John Weaver. So on August 21st, I believe John Weaver had a quote unquote heart attack. And went missing from he was, you know, Hey, said he was at a hospital. I called the hospital in the area at the time. No one had a record of him being in the hospital, And within that week, every one of the young man who said they would come over to go on the record says I can't do it any way they were too afraid. So I don't know what happened, and I still never got a response really from them after that happened, by the way, I mean in additional lawyers, I mean, these are a bunch of guys who also do damage control as part of their living. Right there. Very powerful Men make no mistake of it. These are very, very powerful men with a lot of media connections who could build someone up and tear someone down? I get why and hundreds of thousands or millions of sycophantic Twitter followers who would defend them off a cliff right? Because they because they hate trump like the Lincoln projects raised on veterans. They believe that these people are good, right. So by January I the story. I had so many sources, but no one would be Go on the record, literally. No. One it was. I wanted to scream. It was so it was awful. So one night, Steve Schmidt. I believe it was tweeted that they were keep record of everyone who ever worked in the Trump administration. Well, you know, that's a lot of 20 year olds were trying to make a life for themselves. That was always it was trying to actually do something for themselves and and build a career and these airmen who worked for George W. Bush and defended his war in Iraq and defended all the wars and John McCain wanted advocate for these air. You know, these are people who want a policy. Things have disagreements from me but didn't sit there and say, Let me ruin your life. So I tweeted on January 10th. I tweeted. Maybe I should be talking about the Met. Finally member of Lincoln Project. You wanted to exchange jobs for sex. His wife would probably want to know.

"Come back to the dam prop show. We're speaking with Ryan Carr. Dusky host attack right now and author of They're not listening. The elites created the National populist revolution and we're talking about the story that he broke. Of Lincoln Project Co founder John Weaver Lincoln Project that big outfit that was running all those anti Trump adds, positioning themselves as a bunch of Republicans who couldn't stomach Trump because he's unprincipled and he's a danger to the Republican. So on and so forth. Kellyanne Conway's husband, John Weaver, Steve Schmidt, Rick Wilson and others. Okay. Great profile from the D. C Press corps for obvious reasons because they share a hatred of Trump and Ryan Carr dusky broke the story of John Weaver being a sexual predator. And he was telling us how that all transpired right up until the point where somebody came forward and said on Twitter, this happened to me, and then the whole thing blew up. Yeah, I was able to sit there and actually released all the text messages and emails I've had from John Weaver for months and months and months and wrote the story of victim then came out and also of the story on his own platform. On and he came out two days after I did on Ben. I mean, on between my story, his story and the men online order releasing their own information. It has to be close to 100 young men. The Lincoln Project. In that time all they didn't respond to anything. They didn't say anything. All they did was. It just took Jonah levers picture off their website, and they kind of hope to run away. Then off that fright and Friday news dump When no one's reading the news Axios, Right? They complete nonsense puff piece about John Weaver that he's gay and struggles with the fact that he has a wife and daughter and that all these messages he deems appropriate. And you know what? Lincoln Project They didn't say a word about it. Finally, The New York Times comes forward, and they did great reporting they had 21 men who started at the age of 14 years old. Going into even deeper things. This wasn't just somebody who had an inner demon and was, you know, on his second marriage to a woman but was gay. This wasn't somebody who was just having sexual frolic qualities. This was somebody who was using the trust he built from the institution. We belong to the Lincoln Project. Who prey on young men and tell them I will give you a job if you give me sex. And he did it over and over and over again. He did over 100 times in a five year period. Bill Cosby would blush How John we were acted and would have acted And and and just so we're clear. I mean, you just mentioned it, but I want to put a new underline They're underage boys. Well, the one was 14 years old. I don't according to your time story they did not meet, but he would constantly right message him and say, when do you graduate high school? Well, and when you turn 18 when you graduate high school, so he wasn't trying to allegedly, according to the story, he wasn't trying to sleep with him at 14. He was waiting for him to turn 18 so he could sleep with him. That's grooming and 14 is. Yeah. Yeah, grooming operations with Lincoln Project was and they were completely Silent until they were outraged on the sun For three weeks. My story has been out. They didn't say a word until the New York Times story came out, and now they say they're overwhelmingly angry. Give me a freaking break. They were complicity, and by the way, this was the biggest working on the story For the last segment. Seven months I've worked on. It just was the biggest open secret in washing DC I've never gonna start on sexual harassment before. So I called in my friend she was a journalist who's done many stories on sexual harassment. I should have my approach somebody who's been a victim of sexual harassment and you know you know how to act..

"It was going around that I was working on this. Well, members of Lincoln Project found out and we're warning John Weaver. So on August 21st, I believe John Weaver had a quote unquote heart attack. And went missing from he was, you know, Hey, said he was at the hospital. I called the house in the area at the time. No one had a record of him being in the hospital, And within that week, every one of the young man who said they would come over to go on the record says I can't do it anywhere. They were too afraid. I don't know what happened, and I still never got a response really from them after that happened, by the way, I mean in additional lawyers, I mean, these are a bunch of guys who also do damage control as part of their living. Right there. Very powerful Men make no mistake of it. These are very, very powerful men with a lot of media connections who could build someone up and tear someone down? I get why and hundreds of thousands or millions of sycophantic Twitter followers who would defend them off a cliff, right? Because they because they hate trump like the Lincoln projects raised on veterans. They believe that these people are good, right. So by January I the story. I had someone sources, but no one would be Go on the record, literally. No. One it was. I want to scream. It was so it was awful. So one night, Steve Schmidt. I believe it was tweeted that they were keep record everyone who ever worked in the Trump administration. Well, you know, that's a lot of 20 year olds were trying to make a life for themselves. And there's always people trying to actually do something for themselves and and build a career. And these airmen who worked for George W. Bush and defended his war in Iraq and defended all the wars and John McCain wanted advocate for these are You know, these are people who want a policy thing. Some disagreement from me but didn't sit there and say, Let me ruin your life. So I tweeted on January 10th. I tweeted. Maybe I should be talking about the Met. Finally member of Lincoln Project. You wanted to exchange jobs for sex. His wife would probably want to know. So I tweeted that without being able to actually say it was John Weaver because I couldn't have a source on record and thank God I tweeted that and one young man who was a liberal came forward in tow. I'll say because of having me it was John Weaver and the man that she came forward.

"Welcome back to the dam prop show. Well, this has been a story that has been rather muted. Actually, Golly, I wonder why the Lincoln Project and its co founder, John Weaver, was a longtime political consultant out of Texas. He was part of the McCain gang that that serves as the part of the core group of the Lincoln Project. Steve Schmidt being another one. We talked about it a little bit on this show, but I need to talk about a little bit more. Now that Steve that John Weaver, I should say, has been outed as someone who was attempting to prey on young men. Exchanging jobs for Well. Physical relations. Somebody who tweeted about this and in part, got the ball rolling with respected, exposing John Weaver. Is our next guest. Ryan could guard guard dusky Excuse me. Host of tack right now and author of They're not listening how the elites created the National populist Revolution. Ryan. Thanks for joining us. Appreciate it. Thank you for having down. So Yeah. The John Weaver story. I mean, give us your perspective on it Since you were a zoo you wrote about it conservative? Yeah. Yes, you broke the story was the first to break the story. So, um, I Don't ever follow me on Twitter back in late May of 2020. I didn't really know much about him didn't really care. But he followed me and within a few hours of him following me, I was receiving direct messages from young men. Um, telling me to be on the lookout for John River. I didn't. I'm much older than I look, I'm 33. I look like I'm in my probably my mid twenties according to some people, so they assumed that I was going to be preyed on by John Weaver. So they were trying to give me the warning. So I said, What do you mean? We got the conversation I started speaking to other young men. And tried to start pursuing this story for a different outlet. Other than the American conservative where you create the first story that we broke in January, 11th Started building sources on getting the story ready to work with another outlet and a co writer on it on.

Oh, you mean she's not gonna go out and teach him how to disarm landmines? She's going to teach him how to go out and reclaim the land so that you can bring back a live land mine. The West Virginia.

I've been feeling sorry for abandoned land mines. Exactly that West Virginia coal workers they're gonna have to disarm. Abandoned. Like what? You know, I think we have abandoned illegal alien kids in cages at the border. We have abandoned people here with abandoned women and homeless centers in Los Angeles.

You do not know how right they're not going to do any of this garbage anyway. All this is just a bunch of words. But you're quite she meant to say Abandoned mine lands Salt.

I'm Kirk darling on the level on the go and on double D Y b C, calm. You are back with Mark and Robin as promised. We're going to get into some of the Lincoln Project hullabaloo. And if you're unfamiliar with the Lincoln Project, consider yourself very, very fortunate. They they're basically a pack that was formed in late 2019 by Cem. Just terrible, awful people, including Rick Wilson and George Conway, George Conway. You may know from such things as being married to Kellyanne Conway and just being a complete Jack Wad, um so couple stories about Lincoln Project to share And when we talked about this what I want to say two, maybe three weeks ago that one of the founders guy by the name of John Weaver has been accused or had been accused when we spoke about it last of inappropriate sexual messages that he sent to Guys who were up and coming Republicans looking to get more active in politics, seeking mentorship from him. And instead of providing them like honest mentorship, he got real creepy with them. And this was the this sort of blew up when one particular guy brought it to the surface, And then all these other guys started coming forward saying Yes, that happened to me, too. Yeah, that's a important to point out. It wasn't just one person. No. In fact, I think the number is up to 21. Now there's two Anyone different men coming forward, one of whom says he was only 14. When this started, well, that's I think against the law think it's against the law and definitely super super creepy. The other interesting thing before we get to some sound from George Conway, who was, of course having he's in a position now where he's being asked about this and having to talk about it. But the other thing that Lincoln Project did over the weekend is that they've threatened Rudy Giuliani with a defamation suit because apparently Giuliani claimed in a podcast with Steve Bannon that he's he thought the Lincoln Project had involvement in starting the capital riots and because he said that and then he said it was an anonymous source that told him so. The Lincoln Project sent him just a super threatening letter saying all kinds of like really mean personal. You know, jabs at Rudy and saying, You've got to issue a public apology or we're going to file this big lawsuit against you. And it was just interesting to me because I thought that so that's an interesting way for you to try to distract from what's happening with John Weaver. You're not going to be able to do that now because everyone is talking about John Weaver. And it's important that people realize because, like the link of project Presented themselves in this altruistic group of Republicans who were just so all offended by Trump that we must take a stand to rise to the level, putting together political action committees like this. There are very few people who give a damn about anybody but themselves. These are career political people, and they have. I'm talking about both sides of the aisle here. These are grifters, their political lifers. I mean people like Steve Schmidt, who was in this group. They are in it to make money and they've made a lot and you need to rise this whenever something is paid for by a political action committee while they're like Swift boat veterans for Truth, Never the John to the guys that went after John Kerry, the people who were in that group they actually did serve in Vietnam. They actually did have a case to make. But the pack itself is not put together. But in most cases by altruistic do gooders. It's put together by career political people who get rich off this stuff. So any time you see whether Democrat Republican Paid for by a political action committee. Somebody's getting rich off it. Just remember someone is getting rich and these people were in it. I think these people were in it because Trump cut off the money train from the sort of people it possibly well, that has been their goal from the very beginning. I mean, they're founding was based on Let's make sure Trump doesn't get reelected. That was the reason for their existence.
