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 transformation 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’), but, more importantly, aid in the construction of a vehicle (a ‘ship’) that provides the scattered (‘free thinkers’) with a ‘starter’ new social-networking platform which allows for freedom of thought, expression, and patriotism or national pride (the feeling of love, devotion and sense of attachment to a homeland and alliance with other citizens who share the same sentiment).
When ‘non-dogmatic’ information becomes FREE & TRANSPARENT it becomes a threat to those who attempt to control the narrative and/or the stable.
When you are awake, you stand on the outside of the stable (‘group-think’ collective), and have ‘free thought’.
"Free thought" is a philosophical viewpoint which holds that positions regarding truth should be formed on the basis of logic, reason, and empiricism, rather than authority, tradition, revelation, or dogma.
When you are awake, you are able to clearly see.
The choice is yours, and yours alone.
Trust and put faith in yourself.
You are not alone and you are not in the minority.
Difficult truths will soon see the light of day.

The video, Qanon is 100% coming from the Trump Administration, is just one of many excellent responses to the all-important question, "Whom does Q serve?" Another excellent source for identifying Q's involvement with President Trump is found at the website titled Qproofs.com.
Q Boot Camp is a quick, condensed way to learn the background and basics about the Q movement.
Q has reminded us repeatedly that together, we are strong. As the false "narrative" is destroyed and the divisive machinery put in place by the Deep State fails, the fact that patriotism has no skin color or political party is exposed for all to see.
In the battle between Good and Evil, we can't afford to let false divisions separate us any longer. The changes heading our way and the information revealed will, at times, be very difficult to face, but we will face it together. We, and our country, will be forever made stronger for having reclaimed the truth and freedom of thought.

W.I.T.C.H
Women’s International Terrorist Conspiracy from Hell
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Women’s International Terrorist Conspiracy from Hell, shortened W.I.T.C.H., was the name of several related but independent feminist groups active in the United States as part of the women’s liberation movement during the late 1960s. The name W.I.T.C.H. was also sometimes expanded as “Women Inspired to Tell their Collective History”, “Women Interested in Toppling Consumer Holidays”, and many other variations.[1]
The first WITCH group was established in New York City in October 1968. Its founders were socialist feminists, or “politicos”, who had formerly been members of the New York Radical Women group. They opposed the idea advocated by radical feminists that feminist women should campaign against “patriarchy” alone. Instead, WITCH argued that feminists should ally with a range of left-wing causes to bring about wider social change in the United States. Various scholars have suggested that in embracing the iconography of the witch, WITCH represented forerunners of various forms of feminist-oriented modern Paganism such as Dianic Wicca.

Founding[edit]
The most significant aspect of WITCH was its choice of central symbol: the witch. By choosing this symbol, feminists were identifying themselves with everything women were taught not to be: ugly, aggressive, independent, and malicious. Feminists took this symbol and molded it - not into the fairy tale “good witch,” but into a symbol of female power, knowledge, independence, and martyrdom.
—Religious studies scholar Cynthia Eller, 1993[2]
Within the women’s liberation movement of the United States during the 1960s, there was a division between the “politicos” and the “radical feminists”. The politicos were socialist feminists and attributed the oppression of women to capitalism, seeking to ally with other leftist causes – such as the New Left, black liberation movement, student movement, and anti-war movement – in a wider socio-political movement to bring about revolutionary change. Conversely, the radical feminists did not view women’s oppression as a symptom of capitalism and wanted women’s liberation to remain independent of the wider leftist movement.[3]
WITCH was formed when the New York Radical Women (NYRW) split in 1969. Several politicos within the NYRW, most notable Robin Morgan and Florika, were inspired by the actions of the Youth International Party, or “Yippies”, which had been founded in December 1967 and which sought to promote its message by shocking and offending mainstream American sensibilities.[4] Other NYRW members, such as Kathie Sarachild and Carol Hanisch disagreed, believing in the need to continue consciousness raising and disliking the idea of adopting deliberate shock tactics.[4]
A number of these NYRW politicos then established WITCH; among those involved were Morgan, Florika, Peggy Dobbins, Judy Duffett, Cynthia Funk, and Naomi Jaffe.[5] Unverified claims have been made that the establishment of WITCH was inspired by the decision of the House Un-American Activities Committee (HUAC) to hold hearings investigating alleged communist involvement in a demonstration against the August 1968 Democratic Convention. The women who established WITCH were angry that while a number of male radicals were subpoenaed by HUAC, the female activists had not been.[6]
The group was established in New York on Halloween 1968,[7] at which point they adopted the name “Women’s International Terrorist Conspiracy from Hell” and its acronym, WITCH.[7] The group changed their name to suit their purposes, albeit retaining the fixed letters of WITCH.[8] For instance, during a demonstration against the Bell Telephone company, the group used “Women Incensed at Telephone Company Harassment”.[7] Other examples included “Women Infuriated at Taking Care of Hoodlums” and “Women Indentured to Traveler’s Corporate Hell”.[9]
Activism[edit]
WITCH is an all-woman Everything. It’s theater, revolution, magic, terror, joy, garlic flowers, spells. It’s an awareness that witches and gypsies were the original guerrillas and resistance fighters against oppression – particularly the oppression of women – down through the ages. Witches have always been women who dared to be: groovy, courageous, aggressive, intelligent, nonconformist, explorative, curious, independent, sexually liberated, revolutionary. (This possibly explains why nine million of them have been burned.)
—WITCH Manifesto[10]
WITCH were devoted to overthrowing the patriarchal dominance of society,[9] and according to the scholar Cynthia Eller, they chose to do so in “witty, flamboyant, and theatrical ways” by carrying out witch-themed political stunts.[9] The group’s inaugural action took place on Halloween 1968, as WITCH members dressed as witches and marched down Wall Street in order to place a “hex” on New York’s financial district.[11] This event was documented by Bev Grant’s photographs. Morgan stated that the Dow Jones Industrial Average declined sharply the next day.[1] She also noted that this action emphasized the working-class struggle against capitalism more than the feminist struggle.[11]
Subsequent acts of protest conducted by WITCH placed a greater focus on women’s issues.[11] The Chicago group staged protests in Chicago after hearing about New York City Actions, including actions at Chicago Board of Trade,the American Medical Association’s annual conference, and the University of Chicago.[12] In one instance, the group’s members entered a popular restaurant, Max’s Kansas City, where they distributed garlic cloves and cards on which were written the motto: “We Are Witch We Are Women We Are Liberation We Are We.”[9] At the same time they chanted “Nine Million Women, Burned as Witches” and questioned the women diners on why they were willing to have a man buy them dinner.[9]
In January 1969, a counter-inaugural protest was organized by various feminist groups, taking place in Washington D.C. to demonstrate against the inauguration of Richard Nixon as President of the United States. W.I.T.C.H. members arrived from New York, appropriating some of the New York Radical Feminists’ banners – which were emblazoned with the declaration of “Feminism Lives” – and replacing it with their own word, “WITCH”, in crayon.[13] Rumors circulated at the protest that W.I.T.C.H. members had planned to pull the radical feminist speaker Shulamith Firestone down from the podium when she had been planned to speak; they disagreed with her vocal criticism of those men who were involved in the leftist movement.[13] After the protest, W.I.T.C.H. members subsequently sent a letter to the Guardian repudiating Firestone’s calls for women’s liberation groups to divorce themselves from the wider left-leaning social movement in U.S. society.[14] In this letter, it described women’s liberation as “part of a general struggle; we are as essential to the movement as it is to us”.[14] It further reprimanded Firestone for her vocal attacks of men who were part of the movement, stating that “directing ourselves against men... only reinforces the oppressive pattern of women defining themselves through men”.[14]
“Double, bubble, war and rubble,
When you mess with women, you’ll be in trouble.
We’re convicted of murder if abortion is planned.
Convicted of conspiracy if we fight for our rights.
And burned at the stake when we stand up to fight. ”
– WITCH Hex, 1969
In February 1969, W.I.T.C.H. members held a protest at a bridal fair at Madison Square Garden. Wearing black veils, they chanted “here comes the slaves/off to their graves,” and posted stickers around the area emblazoned with the statement, “confront the whoremakers,” a pun on the common leftist slogan, “confront the warmongers.”[15] The protests also involved turning loose several white mice at the event, which fair attendees began scooping up off the ground.[15] Radical feminists criticised W.I.T.C.H. members for reinforcing the sexist stereotype that the assembled women would be scared of mice.[16] They also condemned what they understood as W.I.T.C.H.’s approach of promoting a message of “we’re liberated and you’re not” to other women, believing that in doing so they were distancing and alienating themselves from feminism’s base constituency.[16] Later historian Alice Echols expressed criticism over what she saw as W.I.T.C.H.’s “contempt” for those women who were not involved in leftist activism.[11] The event resulted in negative media coverage for W.I.T.C.H., and some dissension among members over goals and tactics.[17] After the incident, W.I.T.C.H. moved away from the shock tactics that they had previously employed and instead focused their attention on consciousness -raising.[16]
Spin-off “covens” were founded in Chicago, Illinois and Washington, D.C.,[1] and W.I.T.C.H. zaps continued until roughly the beginning of 1970. In 1969, a Chicago “coven” gathered in an action outside the Chicago Transit Authority headquarters to “hex” the CTA over a proposed transit hike, dancing and chanting.[18] Members additionally staged a ritual in the Logan Square neighborhood in 2015 to protest housing inequalities throughout the city.[19] Participating members at this event included Jessica Caponigro, Chiara Galimberti, and Amaranta Isyemille Ramos.[20] In another instance, W.I.T.C.H. members protested the firing of a radical feminist professor by entering the sociology department of the University of Chicago and leaving hair and nail clippings all over the building.[9] In February 1970, the Washington coven held a protest during a Senate hearing on population control. They interrupted Texas Senator Ralph Yarborough’s testimony by chanting and throwing pills at panel members and people in the audience galleries.[17] In 2015 the Chicago chapter was reestablished by three women. Their first action took place in November 2015. Later actions targeted the lack of affordable housing, abortion rights and the Trump administration’s condonation of racism and sexism.[21] In 2017, the group’s members from the WITCH Chicago Coven group of 2015-2017 intentionally pulled themselves out of the public’s eye to make space for the creation of an anonymous WITCH chapter in Chicago. They still promote the continuation of the practice of performing rituals to fight against inequality in all of its form.[22]
Understanding of witchcraft[edit]
In their leaflets, WITCH adopted the witch-cult hypothesis by claiming that those persecuted as alleged witches in European history had been members of a surviving pre-Christian, pagan religion which the Christian authorities then sought to suppress.[23] In their manifesto, WITCH propagated the erroneous claim that nine million women had been burned to death during the witch trials in the early modern period.[24] This claim had originated with the first-wave feminist Matilda Joslyn Gage.[24]
WITCH declared that any woman could become a witch by declaring herself to be one, and that moreover any group of women could form a witches’ coven.[25] In one of their leaflets, it is stated that:
If you are a woman and dare to look within yourself, you are a Witch. You make your own rules. You are free and beautiful. You can be invisible or evident in how you choose to make your witch-self known. You can form your own Coven of sister Witches (thirteen is a cozy number for a group) and do your own actions... You are a Witch by saying aloud, “I am a Witch” three times, and thinking about that. You are a Witch by being female, untamed, angry, joyous, and immortal.[23]
Members[edit]
Members of W.I.T.C.H. included Robin Morgan, a child television star in the 1950s and a member of the Youth International Party in the late 1960s, who became an important feminist. Some W.I.T.C.H. documents were included in the 1970 anthology Sisterhood is Powerful: An Anthology of Writings From The Women’s Liberation Movement, edited by Robin Morgan.[26]
Peggy Dobbins and Naomi Jaffe who went on to join the Weather Underground Organization.[1] Soon after the breakup of W.I.T.C.H., Robin Morgan repudiated her New Left-aligned politics, and embraced a kind of radical feminism that was strongly opposed to “the male left”.[27] She later dismissed WITCH as a form of “clownish proto-anarchism” which had not “raised our own consciousness very far out of our own combat boots”.[11]
Legacy[edit]
Writing in 2006, the journalist Margot Adler expressed the view that while WITCH was considered to be “a fringe phenomenon” in the women’s movement at the time of its existence, by the early twenty-first century its sentiments would be embraced by a larger proportion of feminists, if still a minority within the feminist community.[28]
W.I.T.C.H. were a political rather than a religious or spiritual group, however several scholars of Pagan studies have considered them to be partial precursors to the Dianic Wiccans, members of a feminist-oriented form of Modern Paganism which developed in the United States during the 1970s.[29] According to Adler, WITCH’s key assumptions about the nature of witchcraft and its connection to women’s liberation continued as the “wellspring” of Dianic Wicca and other forms of feminist-oriented Paganism.[23]
Referring to Women’s International Terrorist Conspiracy from Hell, W.I.T.C.H.,[30] e.g. W.I.T.C.H. BOSTON follow these ideas.[31]
Red W.I.T.C.H., a socialist spin-off of W.I.T.C.H, was created by teaching staff at UC Berkeley after they witnessed the W.I.T.C.H. actions in Chicago. Led by Laura X, Red W.I.T.C.H. responded to the patriarchal elements of socialist organization in the early 60’s, criticising the contradictions between ideals of radical males and their behavior.[32]

On the same day they are complaining about the children sleeping on concrete floors they are also complaining that someone is getting beds for the kids?
Are they listening to themselves or are they so caught up in their self-righteous foolishness that they can’t see exactly how dumb they are?
Now what are the odds that the first WITCH condemned for witchcraft was named ALICE?

Life[edit]
Kyteler was born in Kyteler’s House, County Kilkenny, Ireland, the only child of a Flemish family of merchants settled in Ireland since the mid-late thirteenth century.[3][4]
She was married four times, to William Outlaw, Adam le Blund, Richard de Valle and Sir John le Poer.
First husband c.1280–85 – William Outlaw, merchant and moneylender of Kilkenny. Son: William Outlaw, was mayor of Kilkenny in 1305. Daughter: Rose?
Second husband (by 1302) Adam Blund of Callan, moneylender
Third husband (by 1309): Richard Valle, a landholder of County Tipperary. After Valle’s death c.1316 Alice took proceedings against her stepson, Richard, for the recovery of her widow’s dower.
Fourth husband (c.1316–24) John Poer.[5][6]
In 1302, Kyteler and her second husband were briefly accused of killing her first husband. She incurred local resentment because of her vast wealth and involvement in moneylending. When her fourth husband, John le Poer, fell ill in 1324, he expressed the suspicion that he was being poisoned. After his death, the children of le Poer and of her previous three husbands accused her of using poison and sorcery (maleficarum) against their fathers and of favouring her first-born son, William Outlaw.
In addition, she and her followers were accused of:
denying the faith of Christ and the Church
cutting up animals to sacrifice to demons at crossroads
holding secret nocturnal meetings in churches to perform black magic and undermine/overpower the church[7]
using sorcery and potions to control Christians
possession of a familiar, Robin Artison, a lesser demon of Satan
murder of husbands[4][8]
Trial[edit]
Richard de Ledrede, Bishop of Ossory, was obsessed with the laws of the church and morality.[9] When the case was presented before him in 1324, he seized the opportunity to tackle what he considered the important issue of witchcraft.[10]
Ledrede made initial attempts to have Kyteler arrested, and Kyteler called on the assistance of powerful friends. The bishop was jailed and questioned by Sir Arnold le Poer, Seneschal of Kilkenny. On Ledrede’s release he renewed his efforts to have Kyteler imprisoned.
The bishop wrote to the Chancellor of Ireland, Roger Utlagh (Outlaw), demanding that she should be arrested. Ledrede’s use of the decretal, designed to protect the faith Ut inquisitions (1298), demanded that secular powers should concede to church wishes, and this point of law became a thorny issue throughout the trial.[8] Kyteler was related to the Chancellor (he was probably her first husband’s brother) and he asked the bishop to drop the case. A delay in proceedings (the Chancellor insisted the accused be excommunicated 40 days before arrest) allowed Alice to flee to Roger Utlagh; Ledrede accused him of harboring heretics.
Alice and her accomplices were accused of and investigated on seven accounts:
Committing heresy
Sacrificing to demons
Communing with demons
Magically excommunicating/usurping the church
Making love and hate potions to corrupt Christians
Murdering her past husbands
Engaging in a sexual affair with a demon[11]
After some months of stalemate, one of Kyteler’s servants, Petronella de Meath, was tortured, and confessed to witchcraft. Her confession detailed her involvement, along with Alice’s, in six out of seven of the above listed crimes. It would seem, although her testimony was likely forced and unreliable, that the accusers gained most of their information from this confession.[12] Although the testimony did implicate Kyteler to performing heresy, questions concerning Petronella’s credibility come into light, especially when examining the contents of her confession. In Ledrede’s retelling of Petronella’s confession, he writes:
On one of these occasions, by the crossroads outside the city, she had made an offering of three cocks to a certain demon whom she called Robert, son of Art (Robertum filium Artis), from the depths of the underworld. She had poured out the cocks’ blood, cut the animals into pieces and mixed the intestines with spiders and other black worms like scorpions, with a herb called milfoil as well as with other herbs and horrible worms. She had boiled this mixture in a pot with the brains and clothes of a boy who had died without baptism and with the head of a robber who had been decapitated ... Petronella said she had several times at Alice’s instigation and once in her presence, consulted demons and received answers. She had consented to a pact whereby she would be the medium between Alice and the said Robert, her friend. In public, she said that with her own eyes she had seen the aforesaid demon as three shapes (praedictus daemon tertius), in the form of three black men (aethiopum) each carrying an iron rod in the hand. This apparition happened by daylight (de die) before the said Dame Alice, and, while Petronella herself was watching, the apparition had intercourse with Alice. After this disgraceful act, with her own hand she (Alice?) wiped clean the disgusting place with sheets (kanevacio) from her own bed.[13]
Given that ergot poisoning was prevalent in 14th century Europe, scholars argue that Petronella could have suffered from an ergot-induced fever dream, whose effects would be similar to that of LSD’s. In other words, Petronella may have believed to have seen these events because she was hallucinating. However, in spite of this, Petronella’s testimony in the trial lead to her death. Petronilla was burnt at the stake for witchcraft and heresy. She was the first person in Ireland to be burnt at the stake for these crimes, and the first sentenced to death for heresy. Her testimony was also enough to lead prosecutors to move forward against Kyteler.[14]
It is said Kyteler fled to England. She appears no further in contemporary records. The Bishop continued to pursue her working-class associates, bringing charges of witchcraft against them. Petronella de Meath was flogged and burned at the stake on 3 November 1324. Petronella’s daughter, Basilia, fled with Kyteler. Kyteler’s son, William Outlaw, was also accused inter alia, of heresy, usury, perjury, adultery, and clericide. William “recanted” and was ordered to hear three masses a day for a year and to feed the poor.

Significance[edit]
In the late thirteenth and fourteenth century, heresy was considered as evidence of the struggle with the devil, with the “dangers” of witchcraft voiced by the papacy in Avignon.[4]
Pope John XXII listed witchcraft as a heresy in his bull Super illius specula. Kyteler’s was one of the first European witchcraft trials, and followed closely on the election of this pope (1316–1334).[8]
Kyteler’s case appears to involve the first recorded claim of a witch lying with her incubus. Annales Hiberniae state that: Ricardus Ledered, episcopus Ossoriensis, citavit Aliciam Ketil, ut se purgaret de heretica pravitate; quae magiae convicta est, nam certo comprobatum est, quendam demonem incubum (nomine Robin Artisson) concubuisse cum ea ... – that is, that Kyteler had intercourse with a demon named as “Robin Artisson”.[16]
Literary references[edit]
“Lady Kyteler” figures in William Butler Yeats’ poem “Nineteen Hundred and Nineteen”:
But now wind drops, dust settles; thereupon
There lurches past, his great eyes without thought
Under the shadow of stupid straw-pale locks,
That insolent fiend Robert Artisson
To whom the love-lorn Lady Kyteler brought
