Q patriots reacted exactly as you would expect after the horror in Uvalde, Texas.
Meanwhile, Q patriots were spreading false info yesterday about the Uvalde shooter with photos of someone else.
The CEO of nazi-friendly Gab Andrew Torba also spread this transphobic conspiracy & shared this innocent person’s photo implying they’re the Texas shooter. Torba didn’t delete the post, the OP did & corrected, + he still has a another post up implying this person is responsible. https://t.co/POCWsbcKos pic.twitter.com/OxUuHbvQwk

The main place that false claim has been circulating is 4chan, which is at the point of this tragedy where they scramble across the internet looking for new reasons to be hideous about this tragedy. Pretty alarming to see that climb up the chain to a member of Congress so fast! https://t.co/NWySciSrms

Literally nothing in this tweet is true.
And, of course, this is a sitting US congressman. pic.twitter.com/omovTWT84A

I’m too disturbed by the Uvalde massacre to analyze far-right efforts to crank out disinfo and bigotry tonight. These people spend every waking hour trying to think up ways to use social media to harm people. What a scary, fucked up way to live. https://t.co/FzulsxtPRj

Absolutely vile. Anyone who defends Alex as 'just a funny guy' should be ashamed. He's learnt nothing. https://t.co/c1kceytqek

MTG sailed through her GOP primary.
Update: As expected, Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene has won the Republican primary in Georgia's 14th Congressional District. She is the 4th 2022 QAnon congressional candidate to secure a spot on the general election ballot. https://t.co/vjEl7q4Xzf https://t.co/wHDkH5Yzfe pic.twitter.com/jUXguM0EZe
