Marjorie Taylor Greene's path to Congress has been strewn with controversy. Politico dug up her history of disparaging Black people and Muslims. She's unapologetic about the anti-Semitic tropes she has used to describe George Soros.
But it's another kind of extremism that drew the spotlight to Greene's victory Tuesday in the Republican primary runoff in Georgia: She has promoted the conspiracy theory QAnon, or Q.
The baseless QAnon conspiracy sprang from right-wing message boards in 2017. Those who buy into it think President Trump is leading a secret war against Satan-worshiping pedophiles in the deep state. They believe a figure known only as Q is helping and leaving encrypted messages for "digital soldiers" of the movement to decode.
The watchdog group Media Matters for America counts 19 congressional candidates with links to QAnon who will be on the ballot in November. Many are long shots. But not Greene, whose primary win in a deep red House district means she's all but assured a seat in Congress. Greene has embraced the QAnon conspiracy in a series of social media posts in recent years.

I’d vote for her.
Have congressional Republicans denounced her yet? I fully expect Greene will receive the "Steve King" treatment: winning her race only to be totally ostracized by her party upon taking office.
in a second. AP published a horrible line story about this today saying Q was racist...Absolutely reprehensible.

Trump praises GOP candidate despite her QAnon support
I think Q is a fake, but there is in fact a cabal of deep state pedophiles and human traffickers. Without question. I’ll vote for anyone who recognizes that.
“CNN’s Manu Raju reports some democrats who criticized Joe Bidens extreme creepy and racist remarks are now supporting him.”
Things you will never see on CNN.
Opinion.
Posing as news.
The rich are out to stay rich and the billionares are completely unaccountable and are colluding with the political class against ordinary jerks? No shit. You don't need to make up a huge, weird mythology to explain to me that you wish that the good people could stop it from happening.
what episode is that from...?????
I can’t seem to find actual QUOTES proving her racism. Anyone?
According the hacks at NPR, it is racist to point out that “Sharia law is “bad” and that Black communities are held back by gangs.”
I said that on a Q thread once... and they went nuts
That’s why I have a hard time taking them seriously anymore.
Every new ‘Q’ drop thread brings out the same Qdorks
“I’m here first”
“I’m in the top 10”
“In before the next page!”
All excited to be starting a new thread.
I asked “Serious question- what is the actual benefit of these Q posts? For 4 years nothing has happened to anyone who committed actual crimes against Trump”
I got “TROLL!!!!” in response
I then said “No seriously- what does anyone here find as beneficial except as pablum to placate people dying for action?”
Idiot freeper 1 (again) “TROLL!!”
Idiot freeper 2 : “Hee hee.. Mr. K = ‘Special K’ *giggle* *snort*
I think you are more right that not. Q is clearly someone closely connected to the White House, but other than telling everyone “Wait, and do nothing, and TRUST THE PLAN” I don’t see any benefit.
Trust some ‘plan’ we know nothing about?
Truth hurts.
Q is helping and leaving encrypted messages for “digital soldiers” of the movement to decode. ???? What ridiculous BS!!
“The tide rises on the full moon”.
“The fox in the hollow is cold”
“The South west wind brings snow”
LOL!!!
Every article about Greene repeats these three items, and nothing else, as evidence of her racism:
"In a series of videos unearthed just after Greene placed first in the initial June 9 Republican primary, she complains of an Islamic invasion into government offices, claims Black and Hispanic men are held back by gangs and dealing drugs, and pushes an anti-Semitic conspiracy theory that billionaire philanthropist George Soros, who is Jewish, collaborated with the Nazis."
Marjorie Taylor Greene, who was criticized for racist comments, wins GOP nod in Georgia
Has any reporter ever asked prez trump about q?
The watchdog group Media Matters for America...
Go GREEN!!!
We need more people who are willing to speak their mind.
People who are tired of being put in their place by leftist
democrats/media.
