Advertisementit's very funny to me that Rhodes just got sentenced to die in prison for fomenting sedition on behalf of Donald Trump, who has ignored his case and is currently spending his time making deepfakes of Ron Desantis on Twitter Spaces https://t.co/UclvARzNfK

Just as Stewart Rhodes is sentenced to prison for 18 years, another Jan. 6 defendant—'QAnon Shaman' Jacob Chansley—is released from a halfway house.

I've often stated that I believe Jacob Chansley was a minor pawn in the events of Jan 6th, and far less dangerous than the militia people like Stewart Rhodes. I hoped he'd distance himself from the "QAnon Shaman" persona and use his time better. Perhaps my hopes were misplaced. pic.twitter.com/YsIfXXktaX

This is wild — in his resignation over the handling of Matt Schlapp’s legal fees, CPAC’s treasurer says a “cancer” is “destroying” CPAC and could put its leaders in serious legal jeopardy. https://t.co/H8b5SGKqIY

Still unsettled legal question: is LARPing as a group of high level intel officers on imageboards a crime? According to these newly released documents, the New York field office of the FBI wasn't very aggressive in investigating the possibility that "Q" committed a crime. https://t.co/z5PvMVyGTj

Exhibit 8,570 showing that QAnon makes you a miserable crank.
A big part of being a Q-watcher is just… seeing anon after anon go “I believe a bunch of BS & can no longer have joy in my life. Also,” (insert bonus horrible thing like, in this case, “I’m a sovereign citizen now”). pic.twitter.com/ukdJfrttBL

Colorado Rep. Lauren Boebert's son called 911 crying in December, saying say his dad was, "throwing him around."
9 minutes later, the boy made a second call.
He says his dad *wasn't* physical.
Boebert then gets on the call and tells the dispatcher her son, "doesn't need help." pic.twitter.com/wQtk66naLz— Spencer Soicher KRDO (@spencersoicher) May 25, 2023
