Some links to Q-related items today…
For Q patriots, the Jan 6 hearings have produced new traitors to hate.
Focusing on Pence’s experience, the Jan 6 committee’s report gets pretty scary.
We knew Trump tweeted a reckless attack against Pence while the VP was in the Capitol.
We didn't know that Trump knew that the riot had gotten violent — or that Pence had a second near-miss with rioters after the tweet. https://t.co/DNbc7p45yn

NEW from me:
An attorney for Trump, Peter Ticktin, has repeatedly gone on QAnon-supporting shows, where hosts have asked Ticktin to connect them with Trump. Ticktin on 1 show even suggested that members of the Biden administration should be put to death. https://t.co/bgmjIot2CV

This guy again.
NEW from @Noah_Kirsch and me.
During his rambling Twitter town hall today, Elon Musk mused about labeling himself a "techno-king," briefly discussed aliens, touted his support for a QAnon-supporting Republican, and dodged questions about layoffs.https://t.co/j48RL8ZI19
