The tweet-which was later deleted-accused Becker of “preparing to publish a smear job” with Horn as a source. The Lincoln Project’s Twitter account posted a tweet that contained screenshots of a purported Twitter conversation between Horn and 19th reporter Amanda Becker. Horn stepped down last week over what she described as Weaver’s “grotesque and inappropriate behavior” and “longstanding deceptions.” After her comments, Horn was publicly accused by the group of angling for a $250,000 signing bonus among other perks. Staff also told the outlet that the founders created a toxic workplace rife with sexist and homophobic language. That story, published on Friday, said the Weaver allegations were an open secret in group’s Park City office even among junior staff by the November election and were known to senior leadership even earlier. I am resigning my seat on the Lincoln Project board to make room for the appointment of a female board member as the first step to reform and professionalize the Lincoln Project,” he said.Īt the same time, Schmidt admitted he had been the one to publicly disseminate a private-message conversation between the project’s female co-founder Jennifer Horn, and a reporter from the news site The 19th, which was working on a story about the Weaver scandal. That composition doesn’t reflect our nation, nor our movement. “Presently, the Lincoln Project board is made up of four middle-aged white men. Schmidt also portrayed his stepping-aside as a magnanimous gesture to diversify the organization. “I am angry because I know the damage that he caused me, and I know the journey that lies ahead for every young man that trusted, feared, and was abused by John Weaver.” “I am incandescently angry about it,” he said of the claims about Weaver. “I wish John Weaver was not a co-founder of the Lincoln Project, but as hard as I wish for that to be true, I can’t change that he was,” Schmidt wrote. Schmidt opened his statement by revealing that he suffered sexual abuse as a 13-year-old child while attending Boy Scout camp and then offering that experience as the reason he is leaving.Īs he has done previously, Schmidt again insisted he only learned in January of the allegations against Weaver-a married father of two who has been accused of sending sexually aggressive messages to younger men and one minor, offering to trade sex for professional favors. Schmidt’s resignation comes after a number of figures have already cut ties with the group after several reports that Lincoln Project leaders knew of allegations against co-founder John Weaver months before they became public in January and after Schmidt was name-checked in an open letter from ex-employees who said they want to speak out but fear retaliation.
