Some links to Q-related items today…
We had a feeling that Q patriots would be kind of disappointed with Trump’s speech yesterday at CPAC. A couple of times, when Donny said, “When we left office a few weeks ago…” we could feel them flinch.
And it really bothered them that Trump kept crowing about the vaccines and taking credit for them.
If the 45th president is about to reassert his authority on March 4, it really didn’t seem to show in that speech yesterday.
Anyway, onward Christian soldiers!
Good story in USAToday taking a look at the ways political extremists often weaponize Christianity to recruit, shield, and propagandize.

Trump and the vaccine…
QAnon believers are so disappointed with Trump encouraging people to take the Covid vaccines during his CPAC speech.
Some suggest he only mentioned vaccines for "optics", others think vaccines were code for "arrests" and "executions". pic.twitter.com/eS0Uirq2IG

But some patriots were encouraged by what they heard in the speech…
QAnon followers were predictably emboldened by Trump’s CPAC speech, which was filled with baseless claims the election was “rigged” and he “won”
Some are particularly latching onto Trump saying “Joe Biden” and not “President Biden” throughout the speech https://t.co/94hQVgWJBF pic.twitter.com/SKOkqQIMXm

Looking for some background on the QAnon movement? We recommend Travis View’s excellent recent article at New York magazine as a place to start.
