The prominent anti-Trump Lincoln Project has disavowed its co-founder John Weaver after several men accused him of sending them overtly sexual and unsolicited messages.
At least one man was underage when Mr Weaver allegedly first made contact.
In a statement, the Republican group labelled the 61-year-old "a predator, a liar and an abuser".
Without admitting specifics, Mr Weaver apologised for the pain he caused by "living a deeply closeted life".
