tonight, michael flynn, former president trump s first national security advisor claiming he did not call for a coup against the u.s. government like the one in myanmar but he was caught at a political event backing the idea of an overthrow. followers of the qanon theory were at the event. dan i haven t had a chance to read it yet but i can t wait. one of the biggest conspiracy theories ever spread around the country. we have to talk about conspiracy theories driving everything right now. you heard michael flynn talking about the coup in the u.s. why are people latching on to the lies?
let me give you some snapshots of the republican party today. in the cnn poll conducted after january 6th, 70% of republicans said they did not believe that joe biden won the election legitimately. there are too much evidence of fraud. fight for trump! fight for trump! over 40% believe that bill gates is planning to use the covid 19 vaccine as a pretext to imp implant microchips in people s brain in order to track them. one and four republicans agree with the qanon theory.
irrational what directional jewish people should think, we are all in trouble. as you said before, not only has she promoted absurd ideas like jewish space lasers calls cause wildfires, marjorie taylor greene is a proponent of the antisemitic xenophobic, qanon theory. who is ideas among other things, include modernizing the blood libra. the cabal of jewish people are somehow manipulating the government. one of the things the jewish community is dealing with this weekend is the outcomes and the implications of politicians making crazy, unhinged claims. that implicate either the jewish people or the jewish state. so marjorie taylor greene literally, she should go back to legislating and stop telling jewish people and making absurd conspiracies with the holocaust. that trivialize the slaughter of 6 million people.
CHICAGO (WLS) COVID-19 created a year of uncertainty, fear and change. According to investigators who study fringe groups, a growing number of women are being drawn in to various extremist groups such as QAnon. I just did feel very vulnerable at that moment and kind of, it was an eye opener because I never thought I would ever be a Q follower in any way, and even this, I wasn t necessarily following them but I was intrigued by their beliefs and I think that s kind of how people don t always realize that they re following Q, said Phoebe Keliikupakako, a junior at Boston University.
Police request 60-day extension of Guard at US Capitol after plot warning
Senate works on COVID relief amid security threat By MICHAEL BALSAMO and ASHRAF KHALIL | March 4, 2021 at 9:20 AM CST - Updated March 4 at 3:12 PM
WASHINGTON (AP) Law enforcement was on high alert Thursday around the U.S. Capitol after authorities said intelligence had uncovered a “possible plot” by a militia group to storm the iconic building again. The alert came two months after Donald Trump supporters smashed through windows and doors to try to stop Congress from certifying now-President Joe Biden’s victory.
The threat appeared to be connected to a far-right conspiracy theory, mainly promoted by supporters of QAnon, that former President Trump would rise again to power on March 4 and that thousands would come to Washington to try to remove Democrats from office. March 4 was the original presidential inauguration day until 1933, when it was moved to Jan. 20.
