WASHINGTON — The founders of the Lincoln Project, a headline-grabbing new
anti-Trump political action committee formed by GOP operatives who describe
the president as “crook” and “huckster,” have their own checkered
dealings with Russia and the tax man, documents obtained by the Post reveal.
Since its inception last November — announced with a blistering New York
Times op-ed — the brainchild of George Conway, Steve Schmidt, Rick Wilson
and John Weaver has raked in more than $19.4 million dollars, according to
FEC filings, and needled President Trump repeatedly with provocative TV ads.
But the group — which the National Review on Monday dubbed “The Grifter
Project” and Texan GOP Sen. John Cornyn last week dismissed as a “cabal of
political consultants all in it for the money” — don’t exactly practice
what they preach.
Co-founder John Weaver, a political consultant known for his work on John
McCain and John Kasich’s presidential campaigns, registered as a Russian
foreign agent for uranium conglomerate TENEX in a six-figure deal last year,
filings with the Department of Justice show.
TENEX’s parent company is Rosatom, a Russian state-owned corporation which
also owns Uranium One — the company that paid Bill Clinton $500,000 in
speaking fees and millions to the Clinton Foundation after then President
Barack Obama and Secretary of State Hillary Clinton signed off on the
controversial merger in 2010.
Weaver backed out of the lobbying gig in May 2019 and called it “a mistake
” in a tweet where he denied having taken any money from TENEX.
Still, that hasn’t stopped him from ironically railing against Trump
attorney Rudy Giuliani and his “rogue ties to Putin backed thugs in Ukraine | p******0
