QAnon Has a Disturbing Takeover Plot to Eliminate Elected OfficialsA known QAnon grifter has amassed an army of loyal followers on Twitch in her scheme of retaliation.
A known grifter and QAnon supporter who claims she can time-travel has amassed an army of thousands of loyal followers to carry out a plot to oust elected officials across the country and replace them with QAnon believersand shes using game-streaming platform Twitch to do it.
Terpsichore Maras-Lindeman has spent the last four months building an intricate network of groups in all 50 states, urging followers to dig up information about elected officials and cough up hundreds of dollars to take part in her scheme.
Maras-Lindeman has promised her followers that the plot will bring about retaliation for what she believes was a stolen election last November, and ultimately see the return of former president Donald Trump to the White House.
All the while, Maras-Lindeman, who streams under the name Tore Says, has grown her subscriber base massively, raking in tens of thousands of dollars since the beginning of the year. She even managed to convince her supporters to cough up over $87,400 in a crowdfunding campaign, which she used to buy a new Tesla.
Maras-Lindeman is part of a growing ecosystem of grifters and hucksters who are leveraging the widespread belief that Trumps election loss was somehow orchestrated by shadowy figures and companies tied to the Democrats. This so-called Big Lie has taken hold within the mainstream Republican Party, and fringe figures like Maras-Lindeman have succeeded in carving out a niche thats proving to be highly lucrative

Despite the fact that she shares conspiracy theories, is orchestrating a nationwide uprising, claims to be able to travel to the future, and features a burning Q as part of her logo, Maras-Lindemans channel continues to be verified and is listed among the most popular Twitch channels anywhere in the world.
The subtle flaws that her followers are too stupid to clue in on.

That would be 112,000 shares today, at $125 per share. About $140 million.
Maybe she's avoiding a paradox!
No, probably too stupid to know what that is.

Is it any wonder the GOP is dead-set against improving education? We're a nation of chumps.
