The Lincoln Project

 

Friend, 

Rick Wilson, Joe Trippi, and I want to invite you to a special 3-part series of virtual conversations this month, in July, and again in September on how to combat the MAGA media’s assault on our democracy – An assault so destructive that it’s literally changed what it means to be a patriot.

Extreme elements of the Republican party have had a 50-year head start in pushing through their autocratic agenda. Rick and I saw hints of it throughout our careers as GOP strategists, but we believed they represented the fringe of the party. We were dead wrong — they weren’t the fringe; they were the dark core that has become the party itself – and the media is helping them.

This is not theoretical for me. I’ve worked in five presidential races and helped elect GOP governors and senators in over half the country. I know many of these people; I know their world and how they function. Jason Miller interned for me! As dangerous as they may seem, they are worse. Today’s Republican Party and its media enablers have become an autocratic movement. If we look away from this truth, we greatly increase the likelihood that the America we love will slip away.

As I said in my latest book, The Conspiracy to End Americathe greatest danger is often not recognizing the greatest danger — and the greatest danger lies right on our televisions, computers, and phones in the form of right-wing propaganda dead set on ending our democracy.

…and it’s not just the deceptive voices in the MAGA MEDIA, the entire media ecosystem is failing at this pivotal moment. After eight brutal years, far too much of our “mainstream media” continue normalizing Trump and the threat to our democracy. They are locked in a dangerous paradigm of trying to tell both sides of a lie. That’s just one of the things we’ll get into in our special 3-part conversation.

Resolute Square is home to podcasts such as Rick’s The Enemies List, Joe Trippi’s That Trippi Show, Decoding Fox Newsand on Tuesday nights at 7 pm, Rick, Joe, and I gather with Resolute Square members to discuss the threat the media’s failure poses on Strategy Session Live.

In addition to our podcasts and streaming shows, we publish commentary from some of the leading pro-democracy political strategists, scholars, and leaders – Simon Rosenberg, David Pepper, Al From, Juliet Jeske, Dr. Jennifer Mercieca, Teri Kanefield, and many others. We also talk about strategies to fight back – and to dispel some of the many lies that the MAGA media spreads and mainstream media just plain misses. We hope you’ll join us.

It is not too late to save American democracy and reclaim what it means to be an American. But it is too late to pretend the danger is not great, and the time grows short. We only have 180 days to save America from Donald Trump and his Christo-fascist dreams.

Will you join us for this important virtual conversation? Hurry and register now. We are limiting these events to the first 100 people who register.

The Lincoln Project’s ads continue to succeed in taking on Trump and we work every day to stop his return to the White House.

Resolute Square is different. Rupert Murdoch, Elon Musk, and others have invested billions to build the right-wing media that is destroying our democracy and replacing the truth with lies and disinformation. No billionaires are coming to save us. Rick, Joe, and I, along with a few others, have invested our own money to launch Resolute Square. To make this work and grow we need you. While most of our offerings are free, becoming a founding member will help launch the media platform the pro-democracy coalition must build to defeat the right-wing media threat.

The truth is simple: We are right, and they are wrong – and we can’t do this without you, because Resolute Square is more than a media platform. We are part of the truth movement and need you with us.

All the best,

Stuart
