    Decided the traditional PW protocols weren’t enough early this am and my PWs are now all random squiggles written on tiny scraps of paper strewn about my apt so I can’t log into anything, really. If you need me for rest of weekend, send carrier pigeon.

    My editor y'all

    I really love working with reporters. I love when they want to do something and even when you're skeptical they just tell you they're doing it anyway. PROVE ME WRONG.

    Never thought I'd be taking to Twitter to praise the civility of the masses, but seriously, huge thanks to the many, many people who reached out to me over the past 24 hours. I'm fine! And who knew the wings of 'This Town' would rally around ... a reporter?!

    If I get one more robo call about my car's "extended warranty" today (my car has not been under warranty for some time now) when I need to be answering my phone I am going to be having some fun on the FCC website later.

    Re sources and NDAs - there are ways for journalists to protect them. Should any source ever want to talk to me for a story, reach out via e-mail or DM so we can establish a secure communications. I happen to be up and working late tonight should anyone want to talk.

    Sources discussing the inner workings of an organization tend to be anonymous when interns to senior management sign NDAs at an organization's behest.

    The Lincoln Project today released the following statement.

    Of the 's 8 original senior advisory board members, only 3 remain - Wilson, Galen, Schmidt. Weaver out. Conway called story "disturbing and appalling" & asked for a full accounting. Horn calling for LP's workers to be released from NDAs they are terrified to break.

    NEW from me: Lincoln Project co-founder John Weaver used his power to get jobs for young men he allegedly harassed. His colleagues were warned.

    This is an outrage. Every victim deserves to be heard. I join George in calling for a full, independent investigation of John Weaver’s interactions with every member/staff/intern at the Lincoln Project. Every one of these young men should be released to speak their truth.

    This report is disturbing and appalling. The Lincoln Project should hire an independent counsel to investigate these circumstances thoroughly and provide a full accounting of the facts to everyone who worked at the organization, as well as all those who contributed to it.
