Taking the pulse of the Q patriots…
Heeding 45’s call.
NEW and exclusive from me + @ryanjreilly + @byjacobward:
In Harvard study of 470 Jan. 6 rioters — the largest yet — motivations for storming the Capitol are clear: "Trump is calling us to fight"https://t.co/n9UBuytp8L

Onward, digital soldiers!
Self-styled citizen sleuths are posting & sharing photos of unnamed individuals on social media, accusing them of election crimes with no actual evidence.
Facebook, Twitter & TikTok have been failing to remove this potentially dangerous misinformation.https://t.co/hOnTlThC3H

Another 4Chan Nazi.
The man who shot up a mall in Indiana, killing 3, seemingly posted a warning and nazi image to 4chan prior to the act. @misstessowen and I worked to confirm this and were able to do so from a photo of the shooters body being leaked online.

The pace of far-right mass-shooting terrorist attacks lately has been very high and clearly accelerating. Society is apparently taking it in stride whereas if they were jihadist attacks happening at the same clip it would be treated as national emergency.

Meanwhile, in Arizona, it’s not just Kari Lake!
SCOOP: An Arizona Republican gubernatorial candidate, Scott Neely, endorsed QAnon & a spinoff plan pushed by QAnon influencer Austin Steinbart. Steinbart has previously said in audio obtained by @mmfa that Neely is part of his "political strategy." https://t.co/LZo5Bx5EB8

Bad news for OAN.
NEW from me
One America News could soon be losing their last remaining cable carrier, making it nearly impossible to watch them on live TV in the US.
Verizon Fios notified customers that if a new agreement isn't reached this month, OAN will be dropped.https://t.co/Tpy2L9hzrq

More patriots on your ballot.
The GOP just nominated a guy who tried to impeach Maryland’s GOP gov to replace him—and he’s not even the most extreme candidate they picked on Tuesday.
Dan Cox and Michael Peroutka might be the most extreme pair of GOP nominees *anywhere* in the US.https://t.co/F0eM03vxYT

Where’s the beef, Phil?
JUST IN: The Jan. 6 committee's subpoena to Phil WALDRON called his bluff, seeking 27 categories of docs, such as:
-Evidence that votes were "swapped" in multiple states
-Evidence that smart thermostats controlled by China changed votes.Read it here: https://t.co/5sayrSQkw2 pic.twitter.com/jafRekNUef
