DENVER – A Colorado mother accused of plotting to kidnap her son from foster care after her teen daughter said she started associating with supporters of the QAnon conspiracy theory was found guilty of conspiracy to commit second-degree kidnapping on Friday. Cynthia Abcug, 53, denied she was involved in planning a raid on the foster home where her then 7-year-old son lived in the fall of 2019. She had lost custody of him earlier that year after being accused of medical child abuse — lying about him having seizures and other health problems in order to trick doctors into providing...

...Deputy Attorney General Lisa Monaco said investigators had seized 63.7 Bitcoins, now valued at about $2.3 million, paid by Colonial (COLPI.UL) after last month's hack of its systems that led to massive shortages at U.S. East Coast gas stations....An affidavit filed on Monday said the FBI was in possession of a private key to unlock the hackers' Bitcoin wallet. It was unclear how the FBI gained access to this key...."Today, we've turned the tables on DarkSide," said Monaco, referring to a ransomware group widely believed to have been behind the crippling fuel pipeline attack.

If you were trying to design a magazine to tantalize, excite, and frustrate QAnon believers, you could hardly do better than a 1997 issue of George. Due to the peculiarities of history, the muscular free market, and the fact that we live in hell, copies of the issue—which is taglined “Survival Guide to the Future”—have recently sold for thousands of dollars on eBay. The magazine has become one of the minor holy objects passed around by the Q crowd as evidence of the truth of their addled quest. George enjoyed a short but infamous run, often inextricably tied with the...

A leading QAnon promoter who urged both her followers and strangers she passed on the street not to take the COVID vaccine died Thursday of the coronavirus, making her just the latest vaccine opponent killed by the disease. Cirsten Weldon had amassed tens of thousands of followers across right-wing social media networks by promoting the pro-Trump QAnon conspiracy under the screenname “CirstenW.” She was prominent enough to become a sort of QAnon interpreter for comedian conspiracy theorist Roseanne Barr and started recording videos about QAnon with her. In late December, however, Weldon started showing symptoms of coronavirus infection. In her...

The family of a Dallas' QAnon cult member is sounding the alarm. Multiple members of the Leek family confirmed that their relative, who left her husband and children behind in Delaware to follow a fringe QAnon cult leader to Dallas last month, has been drinking a chemical cocktail containing chlorine dioxide, an industrial disinfectant, among other substances. Their relative has been drinking this cocktail alongside her fellow cult members and has been the one to mix it up and distribute it amongst the group as well, says family, who have declined to reveal the name of their relative in the...

QAnon promoter David Trent has spent the last four years telling his tens of thousands of followers that the Democrats are pedophiles working as part of a global child sex trafficking ring run by the world’s elite. What he didn’t tell them was that he was the real pedophile: In 1999, he was found guilty of coercing an 8-year-old boy into sexual acts three years earlier, and spent almost five years in prison. Trent’s followers remained oblivious, because he was convicted under his real name, David Todeschini.

(h/t foldspace)Q is the result of the sacrifices and commitment of countless patriots to win back our captured country from the Deep State and achieve the transformation President Trump promised in this campaign video. President Trump has said the awakening of the public is key to this transformation.Q describes this awakening as follows: "The Great Awakening ('Freedom of Thought’), was designed and created not only as a backchannel to the public (away from the longstanding 'mind’ control of the corrupt & heavily biased media) to endure future events through transparency and regeneration of individual thought (breaking the chains of ‘group-think’),...

A nurse wearing a protective suit and face mask treating the sick in Wuhan has claimed that 90,000 people have already been infected by the coronavirus in China – far more than the figure of just 1,975 issued by government officials. Her warning from the heart of the outbreak emerged as the Chinese government faced accusations of censoring criticism of its handling of the disease in order to play down the crisis. The outbreak of the new virus originated in China, where it has infected more than 1,970 people and killed 56, and has spread worldwide. Speaking in video footage...

The Anonymous Coup Impeachment, we are reminded by our betters, is a political process, not a criminal trial. The president does not need to be accused of violating a specific law; evidence is whatever the House of Representatives wants it to be. The credibility of any witness, especially one wearing the uniform of the United States military, cannot be questioned. Ditto for the motives of any witness. Hearsay is Exhibit A; New York Times articles, Exhibit B. But what truly animates the current impeachment crusade is the same ploy that’s been used against Donald Trump since 2016—a drumbeat of attacks...

OAN Exclusive: Online Movement QANON Exposed as Hoax

On NBC’s Thursday morning broadcast of the “Today” show, former CIA director John Brennan repeatedly praised the unknown author of the New York Times’s recent anti-Trump op-ed as a supreme example of “courageous” American patriotism. While admitting that the anonymous writer was committing “active insubordination” with the piece, Brennan justified his or her actions by claiming that because Trump is too “unfit” to be President, the writer is admirably trying to “prevent disasters” in the future. “I think there are two major takeaways,” Brennan told “Today” co-host Savannah Guthrie in relation to the op-ed. “One is, what the author...

Call a primetime presser and announce the firing of that useless and gutless AG we have along with that crooked Deputy AG. Play dirty just like them...you have my support. What do you have to lose? NOTHING! After you fire their sorry asses, appoint someone (maybe DiGenova) that will convene a special council and turn the tables on these bastards and investigate them. I am so sick of the SH*T that's taking place in my country. DO IT MR.TRUMP!

This is just my take on the entire Q Anon situation. I attempt to break down what Q Anon is, who created and who took it over.

This is a watered down horror show that gives viewers enough imagery and facts to confirm for themselves that there exists a high-level cult that can be characterized as demonic. The imagery is not so horrific as to render viewers squeamish (which is why I selected it) but it confirms via social media a worldwide network of persons centered on Satanic things. I think it's important to see such evidence that lays out hard facts and puts to rest any related gossip, conspiracies, rumors, speculation in favor of confirmed evidence. Perhaps what is striking is that the deranged minds involved...

I'm scared to post this for fear of being yelled at, banned, hurting Jim's feelings...I truly value, love, enjoy everyone here, even those I've argued with...we are family. That said, families ask tough questions... Over the past year, more recently, fewer posts are made getting the scoop, informing, starting great discussions. I've always considered myself a bit player here, and such a Friday cat and scared of technology, I lurked for 5 yrs before making a user ID, so my dob on Freep really isn't accurate...been here a while. So I ask who are we? Our purpose is? Jim is...

The Telegram message offered details of US President Donald Trump's son's school and location on Google Maps. A pro-Isis channel on the chat app Telegram reportedly features a call for the assassination of US President Donald Trump's youngest son, Barron. According to The Washington Free Beacon, the message was posted by an Islamic State supporter and not directly by the terrorist group itself. The Middle East Media Research Institute (Memri) identified the 21 November threat which was posted by an individual using the name "Dak Al-Munafiqeen", which translates from Arabic to "striking the hypocrites". The message included a hashtag which...

At the link is a youtube video that is 6:10 minutes in length and purports to be from the group known as Anonymous. The narration explains that Anonymous believes the timing of the Antifa November 4 scheduled event was intentionally meant to disrupt Anonymous' "Million Mask March". In the video, Anonymous declares war on Antifa. Anonymous speaks of disrupting Antifa communications and websites (e.g., DoS and DDoS Attacks). Futher, they say that if Antifa dares to attend Anonymous' Million Mask March they will encounter a face-to-face, or mask-to-mask confrontation. I will list the content directy below the video in which...

Last month, as President Trump made broad claims about his power to pardon, I noted that he “may find out that something can be both legal and, simultaneously, an impeachable offense.” Last night, as the president issued a pardon to former Maricopa County, Ariz., sheriff Joe Arpaio, who was convicted of criminal contempt of court, some commentators argued that this was exactly the case. Harvard Law professor Noah Feldman, for example, wrote after Trump’s belligerent Phoenix rally speech that such a pardon would represent an “assault on the federal judiciary, the Constitution and the rule of law itself” for which...

Sandy Hook victim's sister slams Scott Baio for retweeting meme suggesting Heather Heyer's death was a hoax put on by 'crisis actors used in Newtown'. Actor Scott Baio was slammed on Facebook by a Sandy Hook victim's sister after he retweeted an outrageous meme on Thursday suggesting that Heather Heyer's death in Charlottesville was a hoax put on by the 'crisis actors used in Newtown'. Jillian Soto, the sister of slain Sandy Hook teacher Vicki Soto, blasted Baio for his retweet, saying he was 'encouraging hateful behavior'. Earlier today Scott Baio shared a picture encouraging conspiracy theories having to do...
