Lincoln Project's Memorial Day message to us

To the families of the fallen women and men who have died for this land we love: we thank you and honor your loss by continuing the fight for liberty, justice, and freedom each and every day.




This one makes no mention of the Impeached SCROTUS, thankfully.

Something the GOP and conservatives have lost the plot on. They are so far off the path of what America stands for, their every action now can only be viewed as that of a saboteur.

Yeah I said it, they are saboteurs, working against American ideals. Republicans have lost their way. It's our duty to remove them from office and make them a fringe party forever.

I'm reminded of the adage that "the enemy of my enemy is my friend". We all know we've been on the opposite side of the aisle from these guys for years, but at least they have the humanity and decency to see what a threat Trump is, and are fighting him. I think they can do an awful lot of good with people who would never believe anything coming out of a Democrat's mouth. Plus, they've always been good at forming opinions, so it's REAL good to see these ads working for us instead of against us.

No need to mention Trump in this piece because the statement itself is the antithesis of who Donald Trump is and always was. As a man, as a human being.

Bold Angels.

Had me tearing up for all that we've lost.

to the producers on this one.
