Velshi: When QAnon Lies, People DIE - MSNBC



QAnon once thrived in the darkest corners of the web. And while we still find traces of QAnon on our Aunts’ and Uncles’ Facebook pages, the movement has largely dissipated on the internet. But that’s not good news, because they are reappearing on a ballot near you. According to Media Matters, at least 40 people running for Congress in 2022 have publicly expressed some level of support for the QAnon movement. This is dangerous because when QAnon lies, people die. Right now, fueled, in part by QAnon adherents, a massive Covid-19 disinformation campaign is convincing Americans not to get vaccinated. They’re lying, again...and people are dying, again. Aired on 07/18/2021.

And want to belly up to the Fed feeding trough while bashing democracy. Makes them a "hero" among deplorables.

It is absolutely essential that every one involved in the 1/6 conspiracy be indicted, tried & sentenced to the fullest extent of the law.

But the Capitol police were outnumbered and overwhelmed - and these criminal rioters brought weapons! I also believe that they had help and encouragement from the inside and those who aided and abetted need to be brought to justice as well - that's what the commission is for and it doesn't speak well for their innocence that the Republicans (Kevin McCarthy) are doing everything they can think of to obstruct and postpone!

They've dug themselves into a hole and are trying to pull it in over themselves.

I just wish these things didn't drag on forever. 😏
