Rep. Adam Kinzinger on Sunday emphasized the importance of President Donald Trump and other leaders calling out QAnon — a set of far-right conspiracy theories that allege the existence of a “deep state” against Trump.
The Illinois Republican, who posted a video on YouTube explaining QAnon on Sunday morning, said it’s time for other lawmakers to definitively and emphatically denounce the theories.
While QAnon theories have circulated in recent years, they have received more attention since Marjorie Taylor Greene’s primary runoff win in Georgia’s 14th Congressional District on Tuesday.
Greene has vocally supported QAnon theories, and Trump endorsed her candidacy. The president went so far as to call her a “future Republican star” after her primary win. She is heavily favored to win in November.
Speaking on CNN’s “Reliable Sources,” Kinzinger said he supported Greene’s primary challenger, neurosurgeon John Cowan, in the runoff.
“I think up to maybe about a week ago there wasn’t a reason to denounce it because it didn’t need the attention, but now that it's made mainstream — we have a candidate that embraces it that won a primary,” he said.
In a briefing last week, Trump sidestepped a question about Greene’s support for QAnon. Kinzinger said it’s time for the president and leading lawmakers to disavow it.
“The president hasn’t fully denounced it or denounced it at all,” he said. “Now it's time for leaders to come out and denounce it.”

Why? because he says so?
Anything that gets Lefties in a lather is fine by me.
I wonder what they are afraid of?
The fear of Q really took off after the Clinesmith news broke. Stuff is happening and people are panicking.
Anything that is supportive of the Right the Left complains about and demands Republicans condemn.
so they do.
Anything that is supportive of the Left is given a green light, even if it is violent—Antifa—bigoted—BLM—or murderous—Planned Parenthood.
No democrat speaks out, but rather praises such.
And no elected Republican dare speak out.
OMG! When you wake up in the middle of the night, turn on a light in YOUR HOUSE and spot a COCKROACH. (apologies to cockroaches)
He wants Trump to disavow Q?
Look who Trump just retweeted yesterday!

what’s he afraid Qanon will find on him?
‘It’s time’ for leaders to disavow Black Lives Matter.
Is something going on here?
Someone seems to be coming on with a full court press to brand anything that talks about the existence of a “Deep State” as a far-right conspiracy theory, and “Millenial Millie” the Infowars reporter who was jailed for burglary had a documentary she created about just that, and is recently jailed.
I don’t know for sure what is going on, but it sure makes me suspicious with all this focus on this.
It may be hokum or it may not. But isn’t the way to dispel hokum is to hit it with the facts instead of shutting down and denouncing discussion of it?
Bush League Republicans hate anything that undermines the agenda of the Uniparty.
Anyone who does not see the deep state organization against Trump, has no understanding of what is happening.
When will Rep. Adam Kinzinger be publicly called to task to state that it’s time for Democrats to disavow Antifa?
“And no elected Republican dare speak out.”
For such a big animal...some are scared of a mouse/jackass...some are kindly...some are dumb...some run in packs.

95% of Americans don’t know who/what Qanon is. Kinzinger is a RINO.
AK must be compromised...
It’s a LARP. Why do you have to disavow a LARP?
Lol. The Deep State is exposing itself for all to see by calling attention to Q. Afraid of a chimera. This is the greatest effect that the Q hoax will ever create.
Marjorie Taylor Greene is anti-Soros. Soros is a threat to the USA. Not a deeps state illusion.
As noisy as Rep. Kinzinger is about this, my bet is that he takes money from Soros (Like Mittens and a number of other Republicans)
