The Lincoln Project was formed in 2019 to defend American democracy from Donald Trump and those who identify (publicly or privately) as MAGA supporters. Creators of the most successful and poignant viral ads in the political sphere, the Lincoln Project has a reputation for saying the things others are afraid to say. For nearly five years, the Lincoln Project has waged a relentless campaign of targeted attacks on Trump and his deranged ilk, armed with the most watched and talked-about ad content on the internet.
At the helm of this organization is the host of the LP Podcast, Rick Wilson, a veteran political strategist and former Republican operative who left the party in 2016 after it became clear that Republicans were on a destructive path that would endanger America's institutions. The Lincoln Project podcast features a range of special guests, from the leading political minds to pop-culture icons. Sitting down with noteworthy experts and significant voices of our time, The Lincoln Project podcast discusses various topics, from current events of the week to in-depth conversations about the genesis of a special guest’s career – and everything in between. Broadening out the subject matter beyond just politics and making the conversation more relatable to everyone, The Lincoln Project podcast’s mission is to reignite the political flame in every American and to break down the biggest topics of yesterday, today, and tomorrow.

Customer Reviews
Keep up with the figth
Thank Rick and Reed for keeping the fight
Thank you for giving a sound perspective of the political implications of the far right and far left
Great Podcast Mario Nicolais
Rick,
As Mario Nicolais stated: the destruction of our government and democracy is only limited by the imaginations of the people trying to destroy it. Bingo!!
Best quote of the year.
Thank you, and we need some help!
I would love to have a condensed list of the key accomplishments that have occurred under Biden. I think it would be helpful for all of us if we had a list like that that we could print out and as we’re talking to people who may be on the fence to be able to quickly speak to these things, and possibly even give them a copy of that list. I’d also like to see a condensed list of the absolute worst of project 2025 for the same reason. I do know when remember most of both of these, but I think it would be very helpful to have some thing at hand time is of the essence. Do you remember the elevator speech most two have gone through sales training we’re always taught you’ve got the time you’re riding in an elevator with someone to sell your product or your position. Thank you for considering this!
