What's up QAA listeners?
The fun games have begun.
I found a way to connect to the internet.
I'm sorry, boy.
Welcome listener to chapter 203 of the Q&Nan anonymous podcast, a big hunking heap of
Q&ONN news episode.
As always, we are your host, Jake Rockatansky, Julian Fields, and Travis Vue.
This week, we're going to go.
over a set of things that range from tragic to absurd to predictable. We'll cover a recent
murder link to Q&ON. The Storming of a Dairy Queen, uh, which for the international audience
is a fast food place. The FBI intercepting my pillows Mike Lindell at a hearties, which is also
another fast food place. And the fizzling out of the Durham investigation, which Q followers
had hoped and were led to believe would produce arrests. Obviously, it sucks for all of us
that reality is now written by Jake himself
and that we all exist as figments
and extensions of his imagination.
But I personally just hope he starts writing
more joyful stories where I'm still in my early 30s,
his podcast does not exist, and my dick works.
Now, because Travis wrote this episode,
he won't be starting with jokes like me.
He's going to start with the grim stuff.
Well, yeah, I think it's really important to cover.
I mean, what really got me interested in Q&A is the realization
that has become increasingly popular and increasingly dangerous.
So I think it's important to start with the continuing damage that these conspiracy theories are doing.
And the first one is another Q&on-connected killing.
And Alex Kaplan over at Media Matter said that this was the seventh to date.
I remember back in 2019, we were talking about the case of Anthony Camelo, who was like the first Qaeda killer.
And that was crazy to me, but it just hasn't stopped since.
So this latest act of violence occurred in the town of Walled Lake, Michigan.
The sheriff's office say that they were informed of the incident after a 911 call placed at 4.11 a.m.
on the morning of September 11th.
In that call, a 25-year-old woman stated that she had just been shot by her father.
Officers arrived at the scene and were fired upon by a Remington pump-action shotgun
wielded by a 53-year-old man named Robert Lannis.
a sheriff's deputy return fire, killing Lannis.
The woman who was shot was taken to the hospital where she is currently in stable condition.
Inside the home, officers discovered the body of the wife of Robert Lannis who was shot dead.
The family dog was also shot dead.
Mere hours after this incident, and before it was reported by the local news media, the other daughter of Robert Lannis, Rebecca Lannis, made a post on the Q&ON casualties sub-reddit explaining what happened.
That post is headlined, my Q dad snapped and killed my family this morning.
And here's what it says.
Yep, the internet ruined him.
Growing up, my parents were extremely loving and happy people.
I always had a special bond with both my parents.
In 2020, after Trump lost, my dad started going down the Q rabbit hole.
He kept reading conspiracy theories about the stolen election, Trump, vaccines, etc.
He always said he wanted to keep us safe and healthy.
It kept getting worse and he verbally snapped at us a few times.
Nothing physical, though. He never got physical with anybody.
Well, at around 4 a.m. on September 11th, he had had an argument with my mother,
and he decided to take our guns, and shoot her, my dog, and my sister.
My mother succumbed to her wounds, and my sister is in the hospital right now.
My dad also fired back at the cops, and they killed him.
I'm shocked, and I don't even know what to say.
Fuck you, QAnon. I hope the FBI tightens its grip on you
and that your lackey's rotten prison, and hell, for poisoning so.
many people. Really horrible stuff. Yeah, unspeakably horrible. In an interview that Rebecca
Landis did with Will Sommer, the Daily Beast, she said that her father started going down
the QAnon rabbit hole after Trump lost the election in 2020. And I think that's kind of an
interesting detail because it means that he got into these Q&N conspiracy theories after basically
all the drops were already posted. It's been going for a while. It seems like he really got
radicalized by Stop the Steel stuff.
yeah all those motherfuckers all those smirking motherfuckers is is aggravating you know it's what's really sad about this
is that you know for these motherfuckers it's just another political machination or whatever you know
cue believes it is but the reality is that there's a lot of people out there suffering from
anything from from mental illness to you know kind of like poverty loss of job deaths in the family
due to COVID. There's all these incredibly vulnerable minds right now in America. And when they go
off the deep end, these motherfuckers are there to like feed their craziest fantasies. You know,
their most like kind of bloodthirsty revenge fantasies, but also to feed them fake bullshit that's
going to make them angrier and angrier and believe that there's like this true massive injustice
happening. And, you know, obviously there are massive injustices happening. But
These are not them. You know, Donald Trump fucking losing the election is not them. Babies being
consumed for their adrenachrome is not them. None of these things are real. And I think it's basically,
you know, creating a situation in which, you know, there's like a kind of angry thing to latch
onto for people who are frustrated perhaps by other things and end up in a poor, you know,
mental health state. And that is so fucking dark and grim. And I hope that.
All these motherfuckers look down at their hands and see blood because it's on them.
Yeah, this is the always thing that's always shocked me is the degree to which the people who are pushing the stuff, like knowingly, the people who are spreading disinformation because it's part of, because it's, you know, for political gain or they think it's part of their information warfare or whatever.
They really don't care about the human toll.
The wake of broken lives and deaths and tragedy, it leaves in this wake.
They can excuse all of that because they think, because they imagine that whatever they're doing is so just.
It's just horrifying cruelty.
And obviously, you know, this is an extremely tragic and violent case.
But there are thousands, if not hundreds of thousands, more out there who are just completely alienated from their families.
And maybe they'll never move to violence.
But their life is in tatters.
and they're kind of like a shell of their former selves.
So I really hope that the people out there
who are pushing this bullshit,
yeah, well, enough said.
Yeah, yeah, it's fucked up
because it's like, yeah, this has been happening,
this has been going on for, you know, for plus years.
So it's like, is anybody going to be held accountable
in any sort of way for, you know,
what this is done to, you know,
So many families across the United States and in other parts of the world.
Where is the broken window policy for fucking corruption and politicians waging useless wars?
Where is the stop the small crimes so that the big crimes don't happen?
Because we are so out of hand at this point.
And the human misery generated by the lack of accountability in this country means that, yeah,
this is like small potatoes in terms of lack of accountability, but it is the result of just
everybody getting away with everything for so fucking long at the top, you know? Meanwhile,
if you're at the bottom, oh, you're in fucking jail. Like the incarceration rate shows that
there is no level of kind of forgiveness and getting away with it for petty crime. And yet,
of course, the news is fixated on this bullshit. All you hear now is about how these petty crimes
are happening everywhere and the American cities are unsafe. Fuck you!
Fuck you. Where is the fucking jail sentences and, and fucking accountability and ruining of lives for these motherfuckers at the top who've been getting away with this shit for decades, years, eating away at people's trust and understanding of reality?
Yeah, to them, a case like this murder is like an unpleasant side effect of like the, you know, what they believe is part of their greater, the greater good or the greater agenda.
You know, it's like this QAnon shit is not hard to find anymore.
It's all, you know, if you are on any social media platform, if you are following anybody
political on the right, you are eventually going to stumble upon somebody who is either
parroting QAnon talking points or they are linking you to somebody who is a further right
conspiracist influencer.
I mean, and, you know, I know we've talked about this ad nauseum, but it's like you have
these algorithms that are pushing people to.
towards it as well. So if you have a group of people who are upset or they're angry or they're
looking, they're looking for a place to, to re-up their rage, it is being like handed to them,
you know, on a silver platter. And all of these circumstances, you know, this is, this has been
going on. This is just another, this is just another notch on the belt of a family completely
destroyed by right-wing conspiratism, QAnon, and all, and everything under that umbrella.
I think that collateral damage is such a useful way to think of where the United States is at this
point, because everybody wants what they want and they don't give a shit about the collateral
damage, whether it's, you know, civilian lives lost in, like, useless military incursions
or, you know, people attacked because, like, they, you know, the right wanted to spread
fucking hatred about a specific like subgroup of people you know leading into the election you know
just the the constant unending grotesque violence rained down upon people in this country has
completely numbed us all to anything i mean i i think we really are kind of becoming the walking
dead and like this kind of stuff and the stuff we cover if anything is marginalia like does it
represent the macro? Yes, of course. But it just makes me furious about what we accept in this
country, just the toll of no health insurance for people, the toll of no support for families
falling into poverty, the toll, obviously, of like, endless military conquest, and the toll of
no accountability for politicians, people at the top, people who are so rich that are just
allowed to spread the biggest garbage lies you've ever fucking heard and sometimes sending us
to war on the back of them, sometimes just poisoning people's minds because they need to win a
specific election, sometimes just getting back at their perceived enemies, just madness,
madness, madness, madness, it makes me furious.
Rebecca Lannis, the woman who made that Reddit post, made a GoFundMe to help with our
sister's medical bills and to help her get back on her feet.
ahead and throw that link in the show notes for anyone who wants to help them out. Now, that
is the most horrific recent incident related to conspiracist violence, but it's not the only one.
There was another incident that was reported by David Gilbert at Vice News. In Pennsylvania,
a 61-year-old man named Janstowvey stormed a dairy queen with a loaded handgun. During the incident,
he claimed he was going to, quote, kill all the Democrats because Trump was still president.
When police confronted him, he claimed he talked to God and was a prophet who was working under cover with the Pennsylvania state police on a drug sting operation.
He also told police officers that he was working to restore Trump as president, according to an affidavit that was reviewed by the local TV station, W.T.A.J.
Little inconsistent, you know, Trump is simultaneously president is going to restore Trump as president.
Why started a dairy queen? I mean, that's the biggest tragedy.
here is like nothing connects none of the perceptions that these people have connect to anything
we're just floating through this miasma of bullshit like we have to deal with a story that's
legit awful and insane and it's like oh dairy queen oh god the storming of a dairy queen how are we
supposed to take any of it seriously all right yeah i mean so stuwovi he was arrested and
uh police found two more loaded handguns in his car along with 62 rounds of ammo
He's facing like multiple felony charges, including making terroristic threats and carrying a concealed firearm without a license.
The other element is that we're talking about how absurd this is.
He did this action while wearing a clown wig.
So that was reported.
He was wearing a clown wig while it was going on.
Okay.
I'm sorry.
I'm sorry for laughing.
But what the fuck do we even cover on this podcast?
This isn't even marginal.
This shit is just every day in the news in America now.
It's like, what the fuck is going on?
Stovoi has a Facebook page and provides some more insight into his conspiracist thinking.
He posted some Q&N link videos referencing the Great Awakening and the deep state plots to deny Trump the presidency.
He also shared posts from a number of high profile figures within the Q&N community like former Trump lawyer Lynn Wood and the evangelical pastor Greg Locke.
You know, what's really interesting is on his Facebook page, he also posted two letters from two different pastors asking Suovi to stop attending their churches due to his disturbing behavior.
One of these letters from one of these pastors says, quote, over the past few weeks, your outbursts and elevated actions along with other conversations warrant this letter.
The other letter says, your clown costume and full makeup frightened many of our congregants.
We cannot allow you to return to church dressed in costume again.
Dude.
So he went full joker.
This is, I don't know what this is.
I don't know what to say.
It's not, obviously, it's not funny, but why does it have to have funny elements?
It makes it worse.
Because the whole thing is predicated on stupidity.
It's stupid that the internet is a place where something like QAnon could even thrive.
It's stupid that the former president of the United States and many people in his cabinet in closed circle,
then boosted this stupid thing
that was allowed to grow on the internet
it's just it's birthed
it's a puddle of mosquito eggs in a swamp
and it's just you know
it's bubbling up and biting people and it's itching
yeah just popcorn kernels just fucking going off
as the oil heats under the entire thing
and you know what I was wrong
there is a social safety net in America
if you're fucking mentally ill and going off the deep end
there's a perfect fact it's the spider web
You fall into it, you're caught in it, and it connects out to like a million insane things that thousands and tens of thousands of people will support you in your belief of.
And you go completely insane.
A clown. A clown. A clown. He dressed as a clown. He went to church as a clown.
Oh, my head. He stormed a dairy queen. Oh.
Now, while all of this is going on, Trump continues to amplify Q&N accounts on the social media network truth social.
This includes a recent retruiting of an image of Donald Trump wearing a Q-pin and the text, the storm is coming.
Where we go one, we go all.
So, I mean, this is like, I think even more explicit than anything he sort of amplified when he still has Twitter account.
And he has to.
He has to, because these are the only people who fervently support him anymore.
Sorry, if you were a non-cupil, you know, a non-cupiled Republican, you know, the current version of the Democrats, like, aren't all that bad.
You know what I mean?
Like, like, who else does Donald Trump have to lean on for that undying support anymore?
Yeah, just be a nice Reaganite and join the Democratic Party.
Or I guess, get dressed as a fucking clown.
Yeah, it's, yeah, here you're your fucking.
choices. Yeah, you can become a nice
Reaganite and, you know,
reach across the aisle, or you can
be dressed as a clown, scaring your church
members, and then eventually
doing ISIS in a fucking
Dairy Queen. Other options?
Nothing. Nothing. Nothing.
Nothing. There's nothing else.
We made sure of it. There's no
other options, Jake.
I'm losing my mind.
Of course, Q's on followers
are very happy that, you know,
that Trump is being so open about the support of QAnon, at least Q&N content on truth social.
The man formerly known as Q&O, John, said this on telegram.
Just in case it wasn't abundantly clear at this point, President Trump himself is making it undeniable
that he is 100% aligning with the Q operation.
The Q operation, by the way, is a pair of chopsticks they shove up your nose and scramble
your frontal lobe with.
That's the Q operation.
And everyone's getting it.
Yeah, it's very popular in the 50s and in the types of hospitals that are shut down now.
But it's back.
Now, the actual home of Q, 8-Koon, has been having some uptime problems recently.
This seems to be related to the fact that one of Jim Watkins service providers, Van Wattack, took on Kiwi Farms, the harassment site as a client.
There may be a little bit too overloaded to handle both Ait Koon and Kiwi Farms.
But Aikun owner Jim Watkins referenced these problems during a live stream that was noticed by Karma 2022.
Aikun's been having some problems for a while, and so I'm doing some upgrades and trying to fix things,
and hopefully we'll be back online better than ever shortly, and I expect lots of problems over the course of time until at least January.
we wouldn't be such a target if we weren't important.
And we're important for the right reasons that things have become good against evil these days.
So be on the good guy's side.
Do what you can.
And we'll try to be back up sometime today.
Be on the good guy's side.
He says as he waxes his microphone with his elbow.
It's like it's incredible that he thinks of.
Ait Kuhn is anything but a porto potty
that is overflowing so that people who need to take
a shit are just sitting in shit when they
try to sit down. Fuck you, Jim.
Yeah, I mean, he says that, I mean,
he says that he claims that
Ait Koon will continue to have problems until
January. It seems, I mean, I don't
know. You know, Ait Kuhn as
Ait Chan has been down a couple times before,
but that's a long time for an outage.
God, if you're out there, strike
this man with lightning. Yeah.
Smite this man, please.
Now, well, all that is happening.
actually some news about the John Durham investigation. So if you recall, this was the investigation
into the investigation into Trump regarding Russian interference. And a lot of QAnon followers
put a lot of stock in it. In fact, the second to last Q drop in 2020 was just a single word,
Durham. There was this big belief that John Durham's going to get to the bottom of all the corruption
that led poor Donald Trump being unjustly investigated for so long. And they thought that basically
this would lead to Durham going all the way to a top. They discovered that Comey and Obama were all in on it and they were all collaborated and Durham was going to bring them down. But according to a recent New York Times report, it's actually kind of going to end with a whimper. So here's what it says. Mr. Durham appears to be winding down his three-year inquiry without anything close to the results Mr. Trump was seeking. The grand jury that Mr. Durham has recently used to hear evidence has expired. And while he could convene another, there are currently no plans.
to do so. Three people familiar with the matter said. Mr. Durham and his team are working to
complete a final report by the end of the year, they said, and one of the lead prosecutors on
his team is leaving for a job with a prominent law firm. So off to bigger and better pastures.
Over the course of his inquiry, Mr. Durham has developed cases against two people accused of
lying to the FBI in relation to outside efforts to investigate purported Trump-Russia ties,
but he has not charged any conspiracy or put any high-level officials on trial.
I mean, what is there to say?
A fucking Russian doll of stupid investigations.
You know, I got to admit, I'm a little surprised.
I thought that at the very least, because, you know, Durham was kind of made out to be this, you know, both in different ways by the right and the left.
You know, the right was like, oh, he's going to expose everything.
And then, you know, you have your liberals that are like, oh, well, he's going to bring all these phony charges to muddy the waters.
and create propaganda, you know, so people can point to the trial and say, here's the evidence of
crime. But he didn't do any of that. He, you know, he went after too low level, you know, lying to the
FBI's. I believe both of those cases were, you know, dismissed by the court. There was no real
trial for anything. And so he did, he, a disappointment on both levels because he, A, didn't bring the,
you know, the massive sweeping arrests that, um, you know, QAnon, uh, sort of implied that he
would. And B, he didn't create these sort of like circus trials, you know, to muddy the waters
and cloud the media sphere with, with, um, you know, some kangaroo court shit. So a failure on all,
on all levels and boring and nothing and just, just nothing after, after all of that.
Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Just, uh, tragic.
than stupid, then a blank space that cannot be perceived.
This is what we bring you today.
Yeah.
But yet another example of reality being just as tepid and as boring and as middling as it can be compared to what the promises and the threats, you know, sort of promised.
So before we move on in this episode, I just wanted to let everybody know about.
our upcoming live dates. We've had some really great times in Portland, Seattle, and Eugene.

And you can find all of that at tour.cunonanonymous.com. And if you want to support us, I'm also going to plug the Patreon, which is patreon.com slash Q&Oanonymous. For that, you will get access to all of our limited series and all of our
Patreon episodes, one of which comes out for every main episode.
It was a real pleasure meeting everybody at the shows.
You all are wonderful, interesting people.
There was even another Jake there.
We had the two Jake's, which was great.
And you guys kissed on the mouth.
We did.
It was great.
And I think, you got a picture of that, right?
Oh, I got more than a picture.
Good, good, good, good.
Yeah.
We'll be putting that out on my only fan.
my Jake-on-Jake only fans
where I cover all Jake-on-Jake
activity
Anyways, come out
It would be great to see all of you
Yes, we can't wait
Now, one thing I do want to say
Is that all of this show is grim
And filled with both empty promises
And empty threats
And kernels of madness
Popping off on a micro level
Yeah, it's the macro threats
That are ridiculous
And then the micro threats
Are basically just people going
insane and either growing violent or listless. So, but the live show is not going to be anything
like that. We're trying to bring you a much more fun topic about reptilians. And we also cover
some local, you know, kind of conspiracy stuff usually. And Jake has been working on a trilogy
of stories, the first of which will be coming out soon on the podcast now that we're done
performing it. But yeah, come check us out and, you know, let's hang out. Uh, we'll be coming out. Uh,
We put Jake in a cage and lower him into the fans after the show.
Which I love.
I requested that, actually.
It's in my rider.
He'll shake hands.
And we've muscled him.
So he cannot bite.
The cage is actually for you, your protection.
All right.
Let's move along with this madness, Travis.
Tell us what's next on this buffet of oddities and dog shit.
So while the Durham investigation is winding down, it seems as though that the investigation into Trump's associates is heating up.
Oh, the walls are closing in. I mean, they kind of are. I mean, this time, this time we're going to get them.
Yeah, we'll see. It was reported that about 40 subpoenas were issued to associates of President Trump.
Most notably was the one issue to Mike Lindell. So FBI agents recently seized the full.
phone of pillow entrepreneur and conspiracy theory spreader Mike Lindell. This was reportedly done
as part of a federal investigation into an alleged breach of voting machines in Colorado.
Agent served Lindell with a search warrant and a grand jury subpoena in the drive-thru area of
a Hardee's restaurant and Mancato, Minnesota. Yes, hello. I would like one superstar
star with cheese, one order of onion rings with a side of ranch, please.
Actually, we know what he ordered.
Yeah, we actually, thanks to the intrepid reporting of Daily Beast reporter Zachary Petrizo.
We know that his order was a mushroom Swiss cheeseburger and a chocolate milkshake.
At which point, the person who was supposed to hand him the bag was in an FBI suit and popped
out the fucking drive-thru window and said, you've been served.
You're right. You're right. No way. He doesn't. He opened up this Hardy's bag, reached in, pulled out a document, and then the drive-through person is that. You can serve.
He's like, wait a minute. I asked for the mushroom Swiss. Not any of these paperclip papers together with my name all over him.
He opens it. It's like, obviously, like, oil stained. And then he's like, oh, but then he looks under it and all the food is there. And he's like, ah, okay.
Yeah, he tosses it aside. I'll deal with those later. Right now. I can't wait to take a bite of.
this mushroom Swiss. Not a bad choice, I gotta say. I wouldn't go with the chocolate milkshake with
it. I think a nice cold Coke would go well with the mushroom Swiss burger, but that's just me.
All of this just sounds like a recipe for diarrhea to me. It's nuts. You know, out of curiosity,
I checked out the dying options in that town of Mancato because, you know, Mike Lendell's
reportedly worth like nine figures. Yeah, he could eat anywhere. For example, there's a well-reviewed
steakhouse called number four American Bar and Kitchen where he could have
ordered a prime beef filet covered in saute mushrooms and a mile high chocolate cream cake. That
sounds very nice. But he went with a fast food. You know, he really is a regular guy who just
got filthy rich. Yeah, he's just another Jake, man, you know, and this country is full of
him, Travis. And we're, we don't give a shit about your fucking steak dining options. What are
you? Yelp for rich people? Get real, Travis. The last thing that Mike Lindell did with his
phone before it was seized by federal agents was look up restaurants near me and he saw he saw the
number four steakhouse with the with the mushroom sirloin and then he saw hardies and went oh wow he
sort he was like sort by rating and pressed it twice he's like he was like this this is the lowest
rated place he was like hardies hearties uh yo yeah this is the uh midwest version of uh carles junior
which is true hardies carl junior same same thing okay
Good. Good to know. Right. Travis, verify. No, it's
fact check. Yeah, that's true. Even I know that's true. But my real question is like, why
the hell the parking lot of a hearties and not like at his home? And the fed's just trailing them
everywhere. And then when he pulled off to get lunch, like, okay, now is there opportunity. Let's get
the phone. Yes. Yeah, I wouldn't be surprised if the feds were like, let's do, let's do this in
the most embarrassing place because that's going to be. That's going to be great news. And then with the
great news also comes, you know, the information that we're looking into this guy.
Yeah, they could have done it while he was, like, taking a shit or something.
Yeah.
And it's like, Mike Lindell served with his pants down at the gas station.
Yeah.
I'm sure.
I'm sure it was like the most opportune place.
His car was stopped.
It also would have been embarrassing for him.
It'd be a funny news story.
Mike Lindell's kind of a funny character.
So this fits that he's in a fast food joint.
You know what?
The drive-thru window, ordering a burger.
where, you know, it's, it all lines up.
Or the FBI also wanted to eat at Hardee's, and they're like, this is our chance.
Yeah, that's another good, that's another good point.
We're both headed to Harvys.
If I was on that FBI team and, and I, and we knew that the predictive GPS location was
taking them to a Hardee's, I'd be like, fuck, yeah, I would, I'd get something.
Yeah, we should conduct all further field operations at fast food places and just interview
whoever comes through, and hopefully it'll make a decent episode.
Nothing more American than that.
We can hang out and smoke cigarettes in the Hardee's parking lot.
Dumpster area.
Yeah, of course.
Loitering my favorite crime.
So I have a clip here of Mike Lindell himself describing the incident.
FBI, you're going to hear this, and you're probably already hearing in the news.
The FBI came after me and took my phone.
They surrounded me at a Hardee's and took my phone that I run all my business, everything with.
they could have just
what we've done is weaponize
the FBI
it's disgusting
I don't have a computer
everything I do have that phone
everything was on there
and
and they told me not to tell anybody
here's an order not to don't tell
anybody okay I won't
oh God
you fucking idiot
he's holding up the order
oh my god
oh my god and way to bury
the lead here by the way which is that
Mike Lindell does not have a computer.
Also, there's a Christian radio on in the background.
It's like, God damn.
Imagine having such a low attention span that you're like, listen, I'm going to go against
the FBI orders and record a video, but I cannot possibly pause this radio because I need
my head to be filled with static from 800 sources.
Otherwise, I'm not slowly becoming schizophrenic.
Now, what I thought was really wild, I think a weird side of our dystopia is that the
Hardee's social media team, they went right to work, and they did a promo that was inspired
by this incident.
So the Hardy's Twitter account said, if you still have a phone, get a free breakfast
biscuit in our app for My Rewards members.
Type in Hardee's at MyPillow.com for 20% off.
This is based on my recent arrest at Hardies.
Yeah, it's like, oh, who gives a shit anymore?
It's just the total collapse of like entertainment and politics and, um,
the legal system, and commerce.
Just everything is just the same.
Yes, because you have the nihilistic zoomers who are running the social media accounts.
So, you know, that's a fucking, that's a good tweet.
I saw that tweet and I went pretty funny.
Travis, you just described the four walls of American society.
And yes, the house has collapsed.
All the walls are now flat on top of each other.
Now, this incident is kind of intriguing to me because it concerns actions by one-time Colorado election official Tina Peters.
And if you recall, Tina Peters took sensitive voting machine information and photos and stuff.
That was eventually leaked to Ron Watkins.
And then Ron Watkins and Tina Peters both showed up at Mike Lindell's Cyber Symposium last year,
which means that if the FBI is looking into Tina Peters breach of voting system information,
then they're also almost certainly looking into Ron Watkins' involvement in that incident.
And I'm not suggesting he did anything criminal per se, but, you know, it just, um, the FBI is looking
into an incident that Ron Watkins had
some significant involvement in.
I'm suggesting he's done everything criminal.
Name one criminal thing he hasn't done.
It's also intriguing
that around the same time, that we're
finding out about this investigation, that Ron
has
fled the country. He's
gone to a place where Hardee's don't exist.
Yeah. Yeah. Too bad.
He's going to miss out on that fucking
portobello cheese.
It's going to be called
the... They're going to rename it, the Lindel
special. It's going to come with a
a phone
happy meal, you know, a little plastic
fun. Oh my God. Don't
speak things into existence, Jake.
We're seeing the effect of you
saying anything or imagining anything
or being creative. Yeah. Look, look what
you've done to this country. Yeah.
Yeah, I was surprised
that literally, literally
in the story for the live show,
the last thing you see
of Mike Lindell is him trying to make one
final phone call on his phone.
and then here we are a couple days later, phone seized.
You know, it wasn't an exact prediction, but spiritually it was pretty in the same
ballpark.
Carpe Cellulari, seize the phone.
Yeah, yeah.
So that's not the only thing that I think that Jake has spoken into existence.
Now, we've been talking about Michael Flynn on this show for many years.
In fact, back in 2019, you created a campaign.
character called Florida Flynn.
Correct. Don't remember this.
And so Florida Flynn has become real because, yeah, Flynn has basically gone to Florida in order
to influence the elections there. So like we've talked before, like a big part of Flynn's
philosophy is like, you know, local action, national impact. He encourages his fanatical
followers to get involved in local community issues. This has led to a lot of weirdness,
for example, some of the most deranged school district meetings ever captured on video. And
And recently, Mike Flynn got into the local action himself by being elected to the Republican
Executive Committee in Sarasota County, Florida.
Flynn discussed his election on a recent episode of Abandoned's podcast, War Room.
I am going to continue to push this message of local action, national impact.
And now I want to be able to tell people when they say, when somebody says, well, are you doing,
what are you doing specifically?
I am now part of the Republican Executive Committee for the Sarasota GOP.
and I also am volunteering to be a poll watcher
in the upcoming elections here in particularly in this county
in the state of Florida.
Oh, good.
A poll watcher?
Oh, goody.
Oh, goody.
A demented, a demented ex-fucking general
and, you know, head of the DIA is going to be looking over your shoulder going,
you know, did you fill in the bubble correct, boy?
sorry boy
you're only allowed to use blue
or black ink
I'm going to have to take away your ballot
stuffing into my undercarriage
God damn it
yeah
yeah so he's getting like personally involved
in overseeing elections
this is the shit I was really worried about
with like both him
and like the weird true the vote campaign
the 2000 mule stuff
like all of these people who are as
just absolute conspiracists
Flann, who don't believe that the 2020 election was legitimate, take up roles, overseeing
election being poll watchers, and of course they're going to wind up harassing voters.
I mean, I'm really concerned about this, how smoothly this upcoming election is going to be in November,
because I are feeling that there might be more confrontations than usual at the ballot box.
I would like him to get personally involved with a very steep set of stairs and fall down them
in a very cartoonish way
that nonetheless
and leads to his fucking brain
and he is
in Minecraft
that's what you've been just telling me
about your Minecraft level
that was interesting
no
that was a real
and I'm levying it
at former general Michael Flynn
I want him to
the painful horrible way
this man has had too much coffee
this is all going to get bleeped
there's no bleeping available
I'm all out of bleeps, and unfortunately, we ran out last week, and Michael Flynn is a real thing that I want to do.
I've ordered some extra bleeps on boobbs on.com.
Is that NWord.com?
No, it's not.
No, that's also boobbs on dot com.
What is the...
I wish that I was a Sarasota, a Sarasota citizen.
A Sarasota citizen is a good tongue twister, so that I could personally go.
to the polls and beckon Mike Flynn
to watch over my shoulder
as I voted blue no matter
who, down the line.
God damn it, man.
I'm going to go and write in
Hillary Clinton. Hillary Clinton, Hillary Clinton,
Hillary Clinton, Hillary Clinton, Hillary Clinton,
Bill Clinton, Hillary Clinton,
Chelsea Clinton.
George Soros.
The squad,
everybody he hates,
and just down the line.
I want to watch.
his face as I fill those bubbles in very, very thoroughly.
I'm going to fill in those bubbles with a request for an assisted suicide that I may be
put out of my misery and no longer have to deal with these idiotic stories.
I would go, I would get...
Also, I would like to fuck Mike Flynn.
I would go down all the way to the bottom and then when it says, you know, write in
your candidate, I would start to write Lieutenant General Michael Flynn and then I'd look
over my shoulder to go, oh, that was a mistake.
Erase it.
Senator Bernard Sanders.
Sorry for the mistake, General.
My bad.
A large sniper rifle trained directly at
I pull the trigger.
The bullet enters.
He is dead.
I have,
Mike Flynn.
I've seen the commercial for the mobile game that you're,
that you're talking about.
I am talking about reality in which I am saying I am going to
the ex-general Michael Ford.
Jesus Christ, Julian.
Yeah, Julian's going to, Julian's about to get Nick.
did a fucking hearties in a couple days. Yeah, right. So all of that is bad news. And, but now,
before we go today, I want to address the strange uptick in false claims and conspiracies that I've
seen from the liberal side of Twitter. I'm not drawing a false equivalence. Like, there are
people who are like, you know, raiding a dairy queen with a gun and a clown wig in the name
of Hillary Clinton or anything like that. But there's been a lot of.
weird disinformation. So one of the claims that got a lot of traction is that in 2002,
Representative Marjorie Taylor Green auditioned in Los Angeles for the first season of American Idol
under the pseudonym Stephanie Sugarman. There was a video being passed around of Stephanie
Sugarman's audition. And I have to admit, she does look a lot like a young green.
I'm from Al-Suloma, California.
My biggest worry right now is telling my work how I'm going to miss Monday.
Calling sick. Sorry, boss.
Now it's time for our energetic dancer, Stephanie Sugarman.
Let's hope her bosses are watching.
How are you?
Great.
Good.
Okay.
What do you do?
I'm in marketing for cheese.
I sell provolone and mozzarella.
If you had to recommend a cheese for Randi to put on his hamburger, what would you suggest?
Nazari.
Of course, you know, right off the bat,
of problems with the claim. Obviously, Marjorie Tilly Green didn't work in marketing for cheese.
She worked there in construction for her as business. And she basically lived in Georgia her entire
life. So why is she auditioning in L.A.? So I don't know. She's turning a lot of words into Swiss
cheese. Yeah. Kill me. You know, I thought, you know, it was like, well, I thought, well, maybe. Maybe,
you know, she lied about her age. And then she hid her thick Georgia accent. And she made this totally
alternate sort of like persona for herself to audition for American Idol. I tried looking into it,
and I discovered that there is a real Stephanie Sugarman from Altiloma, California, according to
public records. And I discovered that Marjorie Taylor Green wasn't even eligible to audition for
the first season of American Idol since she was 27 at the time. The maximum permitted age was
24. And again, it doesn't really make sense. Like the American Idol auditions, it passed through
Georgia. So it didn't even make sense for someone in Georgia to audition in LA. Nothing about
this added up. So I tweeted about why this is bullshit. And that's why my tweets are now
linked to in the American Idol wiki. Oh, excellent. Very important. A huge win for you,
Travis. Yeah, I remember when this was tweeted and it was so sad because there was like a bunch of
people, you know, a bunch of skeptical. You know, we love, we love our skeptical people in the
replies, you know, saying like, I don't think that's her. I really don't. And the original guy was like,
it definitely is. It definitely is. And all of these people are just like, yep, that's absolutely her
because they wanted it to be her so bad. And it's like, isn't her own tomfoolery like enough to
make fun of her? Like, why do we all, why is it so important that she also, you know,
embarrassed herself with a kind of eccentric audition on, this, that, that audition would have been
the least offensive thing that Marjorie Taylor Green ever did in her life.
And yet, you know, even long after it was disproven and somebody in the replies wrote like,
uh, no, here's, here's the article debunking it.
You know, the original poster was like, lull.
Yeah.
It's like the, the emotion, the emotion is more important than the info, than the actual
information.
Yeah, yeah.
As long as, like, it's all we have left.
Yeah.
As long as like it felt good to, you know, dunk.
on green. It actually doesn't matter
if an article came out
saying that this is patently false.
Don't you know, we can reach
across the aisle and hate fact checkers.
It's, uh...
Yeah, and it did. It did seem like there was
there was kind of a sentiment that
that the fucking, you know, the
party pooper Travis views of the world
came into the replies and
ruined their fun. I did get
a lot that. It's like, oh,
it's like people who like recognize that
like, you know, I was basically right. It's like,
Oh, why do you have to ruin our fun, Travis?
That's a fine reaction.
As long as you, like, recognize that, like, you know, that there's really no evidence to support the claim.
So if you feel disappointed, that's fine, but, you know, it's like the problem is, is that you avoid being disappointed by sticking with your original belief because you want it to be true.
That's the real problem.
If you're doing this for fun, I just, you know, Jesus Christ.
But I'm sure you can find another hobby.
Here's my thing.
A lot of these people, they think they think they're trying to stick it to green by embarrassing.
her, but really you're just digging up like
a 20-year-old video
from a woman who has moved on,
is married, and is doing other things
and maybe like, you know, thinks about the
audition once in a while, you're
basically dunking on a regular
person now, you know, who's probably
much more mature than she was
when she did that audition. I don't think so.
I think she's still doing dances like this
and talking about cheese to her family.
Well, you don't know that for sure, Julian.
Well, I'm making the claim.
The other thing is, right, it's like, like, hey, you know, Green has done a lot of, like, bizarre things.
She, for example, claimed that Hillary Clinton murdered JFK Jr.
You know, she said, she has said a lot of, like, really bizarre things that are, I think, are way more embarrassing than auditioning for American Idol.
If you're auditioning for American Idol, you're at least putting yourself out there, you're following your dreams.
It may fall flat, but, you know, you're giving it a good try.
Nothing wrong with that.
But, like, making all these bizarre claims on the Facebook page to, like, an audience of a couple hundred people, you know, that's a little bit stranger to me.
Yeah.
Why, yeah, why do liberals so desperately want her to be caught in this, like, kind of embarrassing, like, endearing, you know, non-fascist moment?
You know, it's like there are plenty.
Why do we want to humanize, you know, this lady who has caused a so much.
much grief, you know, over the past
couple of years. It's bizarre to me.
I hope nobody finds my American Idol
audition. Yeah. Jake
also had sex with a Polly guy who
looks like Zangeefe. Huh?
Nothing. The other big
theory that seemed to rip
through parts of liberal Twitter
concerns the recent death of Donald
Trump's ex-wife Ivana Trump.
On July 14th, Ivana Trump
died due to injury
sustained in the fall at her New York
City apartment. You know, at first, there were
accusations that she was killed because she
do too much, but obviously
that was silly, didn't make any sense
and she was an old frail
woman, it's tragic. But then a
weirder conspiracy theory sort of
manifested, and it related
to the FBI raid on Mara Lago
to recover top secret documents.
The accusation is basically
that Ivana Trump was cremated
and then Trump stuffed Ivana's
casket full of these secret
documents so that they could be
buried and hidden. As ever,
evidence, a lot of Twitter accounts cited the fact that the casket for Ivana Trump was carried by
10 pallbearers. Presumably, the theory goes, because it was overloaded with heavy top secret
documents instead of the body of Ivana Trump. But were they dancing to fun music? No dancing,
no dancing, uh, Paul bears on this one. One person who tweeted about this claim is the former
general hospital actress Nancy Lee Graham, who said this in the tweet that got over 18,000
and retweets.
Dear at FBI, I know you don't need advice from a soap star.
End it there! End it there!
Nope, there's more.
But having been in 10 or 10K implausible storylines in my 37 years,
may I recommend digging up Ivano.
Jesus fucking Christ!
Clearly it didn't take 10 pallbearers to carry a liposuction 73-year-old
who methinks was in her weight in classified docs.
Me-thinks
Me-finks
Yeah, that's always
A classy edition
Me-thinks
Liberals, if you're listening
Look
I appreciate
The fact that
I truly believe
That none of you
Would don a clown costume
And carry a loaded handgun
Into a Dairy Queen
I am so happy
That we are not there
And I don't think we will or could be given that the proclivity to violence has historically been a right-wing sort of escalation.
However, this theory is just as bat-shit as anything that has come out of QAnon.
You have to recognize it.
The desire, your hatred of Donald Trump and the desire to pin, you know, these criminal.
mastermind sort of plots on him.
I understand it comes from your hatred and the idea that he could be capable of doing
something this dastardly.
But the idea that Trump hid classified documents in the casket of his dead ex-wife, that
is as you have to recognize and you have to be honest with yourself, that is just as insane
as anything that has come out of the QAnon circle.
He could put them in a fire.
He could do anything.
It doesn't make any sense.
Why is that safer than just burning them?
It's like if you want to get rid of the docks, burn them.
You don't need to like, you know, so the theory is that they cremated the body of Ivana Trump, but not the documents.
I get it.
You want to have fun to.
You saw the Q&on people for four years, you know, talk about, you know, JFK,
you know, coming back to life as a hat salesman outside of the Trump rallies.
I get it.
You watch them have a real good time.
You want your fun to.
But we have to police each other in this.
If you have friends, you know, who are just asking questions about the potential documents buried in Ivanka's casket,
you subtly, please, you have to subtly suggest that that sounds like something that a QAnon would say.
So a couple corrections there, JFK Jr.
and Ivana, not Ivanka.
Yeah, what did I say?
JFK and Ivanka.
Mm-hmm.
Okay, so maybe I'm not the best person to listen to, but pretend for a moment.
Just imagine in your head that everything that I just said was actually in Travis's voice
and those two pieces of information, the two names were gotten correct.
Thank you.
Yeah.
No, I totally agree with you.
I just wanted to kind of give you extra credibility by doing a little bit of whiteout.
I appreciate. Yeah, a little bit of the whiteout, scrunch out a couple of things. Remove a K at a junior. And there we go. There we go.
There was another incident where there was a ton of wild speculation because Trump made a surprise visit to Washington, D.C.
And there were lots of big accounts, like, you know, CNN panelists and stuff who were speculating that he was possibly in D.C. because he was indicted or going to be indicted during an interview with FBI agent or something like that.
wound up being is that like he was being involved in a, I guess a renovation of his golf course
in the area because they're preparing for an event next year. So that was nothing either. And I think
that, you know, again, I'm not making a false equivalence. All of these are like, you know,
they're like at worst, like wildly overextended speculation. Whereas like, you know, right-wing
conspiracy theories, they're often a pretext of violence. When you say this person is a
a criminal pedophile or the election was stolen, these are excuses, basically, to do horrifying things
that. And so that's, so they're really not equivalent. But I think, I feel like there's a
sense that like, oh my God, Trump may actually be hit hard with something soon. And so there's
this, I don't know, people feel a little bit, they're eager. They want to see something happen. So they,
so they speculate maybe a little bit too far than what the evidence warrants. But they're only,
they're only, they're learning this from the people that they watch on TV.
You know, 80% of the talking head panels that you see on MSNBC or, you know, any of these
sort of big media organization is a bunch of people speculating on what this could
potentially be, what this could potentially mean.
So we are being conditioned to speculate, you know, I don't think it's necessarily the fault
of the people.
This is, we get it from these sources that are, you know, supposedly.
news and information when a lot of the time it's speculation and its opinion sort of
presented as fact.
If you're waiting for the indictments on either side, the indictment's here and it's of America
as the stupidest, most broken country in the goddamn world.
And to top it off, Julian and Travis, the reality of the Trump golf meeting is actually
worse in a case.
It's for these live golf events or whatever that has funded and put on.
by Saudi Arabia like it's there there's there's plenty of shit to dig into there uh you know
it just and that and that's right there for the plucking you can you can look up who sponsors
these golf tournaments and uh you know which which Saudi Arabian uh investors and politicians
are backed behind it there's plenty of stuff there you know just going like oh yeah like
oh yeah sure like to discuss renovations like on a golf course with no clubs like this is
Tony Soprano.
Everybody wants to live through the television shows that have narrated our culture,
when the actual reality, like, might be even worse than just this generalized mobster meeting on the Greens, you know?
The golf tournament, by the way, ends in a putting competition in which the ball goes up a ramp,
flies off the ramp, and hits two model buildings that then collapse into themselves.
Oh, boy.
You had to make it dark.
You had to make it real dark.
Yeah, right?
Yes, that is my job.
Thank you for listening to another episode of the Q&on Anonymous podcast.
When you sub, you help us stay advertising free and editorially independent.
We've got a website, QAnonanonymous.com,
where you can find links to everything we mentioned in our last little plug session.
And I think with that, I'm going to ask Travis to say the magic words
and shuffle us off the mortal coil of listening.
to this specific episode.
Listener, until next week,
may the Deep Dish bless you and keep you.
It's not a conspiracy.
It's fact.
And now, today's AutoCube.
I said, you know, you guys, I said, are you going to arrest me?
I said, I've been asking for you guys,
this will make international, this will make national news.
And they go, no, no, we're not going to arrest you.
I'm going, well, then what do you want?
And they go, we're going to ask you some questions.
So they start asking me these questions about Colorado,
about Dominion Machine, Colorado,
with Tina Peters and Doug Frank and throwing notes out there.
They're asking you about Doug Frank?
Yeah, Doug Frank.
They go, how long have you known Doug Frank?
And I go, I met him at the, I met him at the, at the, at, uh, when we filmed absolute
interference, first time I ever met him.
And I told the FBI guy says, you guys probably already know this.
I said it's when we filmed absolute interference, but it was.
so good. I said, we got to stop the presses and we made scientific proof. So anyway, I started
drilling them. I go, how come you guys don't ask me questions about Dennis Montgomery's data
so we can get this charade over with? I said, I said, can you get me to the January 6th corruption?
I said, I volunteered to go there. And they go, Mike, this is our, we're talking about Colorado.
Sam, you know, they wanted to keep me focused, right?
Were any of them, were any of them cracking a smile? Did any of them say it? Yeah, yeah, yeah,
They were the one, the one guy, these guys were, I want to say this for the record, they were, they were pretty nice guys, okay.
