A second minor has come forward to accuse former Lincoln Project founder John Weaver of sexual harassment:

Yes, we WOULD like to know this:
OMG!!! Another minor making credible allegations of sexual harassment by Lincoln Project founder. Imagine how many more there are?
RT if you want to know when John Weaver’s co-founders first knew about it and how long they continued their grift afterwards!

The latest from Amanda Becker at 19thenews is that they knew as early as March:

And Yashar Ali says “it’s clear Weaver attempted to interact with hundreds of young men in this way”:
This isn't directly related to the questions the FBI is asking, but it's clear Weaver attempted to interact with hundreds of young men in this way.
Key word: attempted…I have a spreadsheet now of over 100 men who had Weaver slide into their DMs.
And that's just me. https://t.co/bqGzgWkwQ1

The scandal is starting to cost Lincoln Project advisers their cushy consulting gigs, too:

Fred Wellman, executive director of the Super PAC, announced he’s hired the law firm of Paul Hastings to “investigate allegations of inappropriate behavior of John Weaver as part of a comprehensive review of our operations and culture”:
We have been hard at work addressing the issues we face. We're not hiding from them. We are committed to creating a workplace and organization that reflects our nation and our mission. I appreciate the many friends that have reached out to me to offer support. https://t.co/Gp568KASLy

They’re also (maybe?) allowing people to speak publically on what went on:
“We are releasing staff and former staff from the confidentiality provisions in their employment agreements to discuss their workplace environment.” So a very narrow release but no general release from NDAs to discuss any & all aspects of the Lincoln Project's various scandals. https://t.co/1L3Y9F5TYP

Becker is also reporting that lawyers at Paul Hastings were also donors to Lincoln Project which could be a conflict of interest:
Lawyers at the law firm retained by Lincoln Project were also donors during the campaign: https://t.co/m0jzFeRJaE https://t.co/JcQGsqD8bZ
