MILWAUKEE — President Donald Trump was more than halfway through his speech at a rally in Milwaukee when one of his hand gestures caught the eye of a supporter standing in the packed arena.
The 51-year-old woman believed the president had traced the shape of the letter “Q” with his fingers as a covert signal to followers of QAnon, a right-wing, pro-Trump conspiracy theory. She turned to the couple on her right and excitedly asked, “Did you see the ‘Q’?”
“He just did it?” asked Diane Jacobson, 63, of Racine, Wisconsin.
“Was that a ‘Q’?” added Jacobson’s husband, Randy, 64.
“I think it was,” replied their new friend, Chrisy. The Geneva, Illinois, resident declined to give her last name in part because she said she wanted to avoid negative “attention.”
The Jacobsons met Chrisy and her husband, Paul, hours earlier in the line to get into the Jan 14 rally. The couples bonded over their shared interest in QAnon, which centers on the baseless belief that Trump is waging a secret campaign against enemies in the “deep state” and a child sex trafficking ring run by satanic pedophiles and cannibals.
What started as an online obsession for the far-right fringe has grown beyond its origins in a dark corner of the internet. QAnon has been creeping into the mainstream political arena for more than a year. The trend shows no sign of abating as Trump fires up his reelection campaign operation, attracting a loyal audience of conspiracy theorists and other fringe groups to his raucous rallies.
Trump has retweeted QAnon-promoting accounts. Followers flock to Trump’s rallies wearing clothes and hats with QAnon symbols and slogans. At least 23 current or former congressional candidates in the 2020 election cycle have endorsed or promoted QAnon,...

I read all of the Q posts, and have part Jewish heritage. If there was any anti-semitism, I wouldn't read two syllables of it.
Thanks to the great posters, linkers, educators, historians, humorists here and on the Q threads. FR BUMP!
Well put. It's like watching Rocky Balboa boxing match. He gets his ass kicked over and over but wins in the end. Even in the movies Rocky's wife rightfully so had major problems with Rocky fighting then he did.
Which we can see Trump Jr wife had poison sent to Vanessa Haydon and their kids. If that doesn't make someone want to cry I don't know what would. They still to this day will not stop attacking this great family and us that support them.
You're right my mistake. Though without the Russian investigation Durham couldn't do any investigation.
If Huber sets on his ass this whole time I'm going to be extremely disappointed. Maybe he sent this investigation and information on to another team. I don't know.
Huber was investigating the Clinton Foundation which is now almost dead (Broke.) That wouldn't have happened if there was no real investigation against them.
Well, there is no question that his deep state enemies were waging a campaign against him. Yet, he has survived the dastardly deeds of those Snidely Whiplashes - their efforts to carry off our fair country and treat it roughly. How did that happen?
Donald Jr’s wife Vanessa was hospitalized after opening letter with white powder inside in Feb 2018 - which later turned out to be not poison though it was an act of terror
If you do that, he repeatedly and plainly says “cranberry sauce”.
Your post is worded so that it seems like VANESSA sent poison to someone. Confused me. I knew they had received the white powder.
I’m sorry I wasn’t clear.
He reminds me of an idiot barging his way onto an interstate highway on-ramp as if he owned the place. I don’t know who he is but I don’t like him already.
What is the Washington Times trying to get out in front of?
The President has not denounced Q. Why should we?
“I read all of the Q posts, and have part Jewish heritage. If there was any anti-semitism, I wouldn’t read two syllables of it.”
Q certainly hasn’t.
But the 8kun site that they are posted on is full of it.
They say it is shills that do this, I guess there are all types of shills. I have noticed that on other sites too, Zero Hedge being one of them.
Other than that huge distraction, there are some excellent research findings shared.
We have to counter the lousy MSM some way.
Jim Robinson who runs this site disagrees with you, and Q supporters typically have and post within the thread started and accepted by him
So if you have a problem, take it up with him!
Get over yourself
You are entitled to disagree. I’ll let Jim Robinson speak for himself, I assume you don’t speak for him.
No Jim Is the owner and I follow his rules about reading and posting with the QAnon threads he allows
his is an aberration and only doing so to inform you that whether or not you like the posts, He is fine with them
He may not agree with it all but after all this is FreeRepublic which I have been on since 1998 and I am also a donor
Hope you are too
I put my money where my mouth is
Sic Semper Tyrranis
So, I assume there is no rule that I am not entitled to my own opinion?
