Lincoln Project partners with NAACP . . .

Link to tweet

We are proud to be partnering with the @ACFB and @ProjectLincoln for a holiday food drive in East Atlanta at Jefferson Park Recreational Center. Engaging with the community and educating voters is what it's all about

If the Lincoln project keeps making move like partnering with the NAACP. I may have to rethink the group and their activisim.

they just reaching out to AOC? No doubt to lift her up so she can be the head of the far left Party known as the Democratic Party. Center Lincoln Party needs to be not racist like the Republican Party or they would not be viable. So yeah. Of course they are connecting with all sorts of Democrats. And all the Democrats are saying "what? Me? You are interested in meeee! - they like me, they really like me!". Am i alone here?

Part of me doesn't trust them as far as I can throw them.

The other part is quite impressed with their work, statements and sentiments.
But they are going to have to do a lot more.

Even if they are legit and sincere, I fear that by them joining the Dem party they will pull it too far right.
I assume AOC has that worry as well.

They want something from us right now, to be accepted, find a political home, and consulting jobs.
But they are a powerful entitled group, and conservative.

Their sentiments are right on, and seem sincere.
Time will tell.

AOC has to be giving them the side eye. She must know what they could do to our party.
Especially her progressive agenda. Steve Schmidt has been publicly reaching out to her,
she has made no response that I am aware of.
