President Trump is facing intense backlash for celebrating the recent layoffs that took place at the liberal magazine The Atlantic.

Last week, The Atlantic became the latest of several news outlets that have cut its staff amid the coronavirus pandemic, detailing in a memo to staff that 68 of their colleagues were let go, resulting in a cut of roughly 17 percent of all of the magazine's employees.

Roughly 40 million Americans have lost their jobs since the beginning of the pandemic. On Tuesday night, Trump touted the layoffs from the magazine whose coverage has been largely critical of the president.

Q was an obvious hoax from the very beginning. The very first posts claimed that Hillary and Huma etc was going to be arrested the very next day. Hillary was so deserving of it, that the posts gathered huge attention, but of course nothing ever came of it.

Just like the 50,000 sealed indictments, the Trust Sessions lies, it’s just swept away as if the most important proclamations never even happened. The only thing worthwhile about the whole bizarre fiasco is that it shows well intentioned people can still be mind controlled by a faceless, voiceless, typewriter, so that those of us who see through it, need to understand the urgency of figuring out a cure.

From what I’ve seen, ridicule does work the best, even though their epiphany never comes in your presence. It’s usually after one is served a good enough dose of it, that they go away and reflect, and come back more cognizant. Those with no shame, and overflowing with pride and inability to admit fault, however, are more difficult to treat.

“The very first posts claimed that Hillary and Huma etc was going to be arrested the very next day. Hillary was so deserving of it, that the posts gathered huge attention, but of course nothing ever came of it.”

I thought it was a troll operation and so it was entertaining if nothing else. For me it got bad when those grifters tried to claim they knew in advance about a guy in Brooklyn who loaded a homemade bomb and went to the NYC Port Authority to detonate it.

Fortunately, the bomb was defective and only injured the terrorist. But why would someone sane claim to know in advance and not stop it?

That’s when I knew this had gone from trolling the opposition to a real danger.

The whole idea of a Q Clearance doesn’t even have anything to do with the military. It’s a Department of Energy designation.

As you said, the entire thing is a hoax. When they went after VP Pence, that’s when I knew how far those criminals would go. They were going to turn on President Trump next.
