One of the biggest resort companies in the U.S. has dropped a controversial QAnon-linked convention that was slated to come to Las Vegas in October.

The Patriot Voice, a group closely linked with the QAnon movement, was scheduled to hold the For God & Country Patriot Double Down event in Las Vegas from Oct. 22-25 at Caesars Forum convention space near the Strip, with tickets selling between $650 and $3,000.

The event’s registration page now says that the ticketing system is “temporarily offline.” Caesars Entertainment confirmed Tuesday that it is no longer hosting the event at any of its properties.

“We can confirm that the Patriot Double Down will no longer be held at Caesars Entertainment properties,” Caesars spokeswoman Kate Whiteley said in an email Tuesday.

now populating the GOP with "actors and models" who pretend to be anti-vaxxers.
And Lauren Boebert is in there.

Agency started by a pornographer, of course.

I mean, as long as they're reliving the glorious past of 'Murca, seems like a solid choice.
