Ron Watkins ran the QAnon website and many believe that he IS Q. And of course, he has Sidney Powell and Michael Flynn right there with him the Q camp. Donald, Sid and Crooked Mike retweet his crap ENDLESSLY. Here's an excerpt:
Sidney Powell, a lawyer who has filed a series of suits she dubbed "the Kraken," which have failed to overturn the results of the election in several states, was part of the meeting. She has repeatedly pushed QAnon theories, and she has used the hashtag #TheStormIsComing, a QAnon phrase that refers to the extrajudicial roundup of Democrats at the heart of the theory.
Flynn, a hero in the mythology of the QAnon conspiracy theory who once took a QAnon "oath" on video, has said in appearances on the conservative media channel Newsmax that Trump should use the military to "rerun" the election.
The "Rubicon" hashtag wasn't new to QAnon followers, who have repeatedly tweeted the phrase in the last week. But the hashtag had minimal success last week until Ron Watkins, who previously ran the message board and QAnon hub 8kun, posted a series of viral tweets Thursday and Friday about Caesar and crossing the Rubicon.
"Will@realDonaldTrump #CrossTheRubicon? Spread the hashtag and show POTUS how you feel about it," Watkins wrote. The tweet got more than 27,000 retweets.
QAnon followers believe the Democratic Party is run by satanic, child-eating cannibals and that Trump is secretly waging a war against them. Adherents follow "Q," an anonymous poster to the extremist site 8kun, who has posted prophecies since 2017 that have repeatedly failed to materialize. The Q account, which usually posts several times a week, has largely been dormant since Election Day.
Watkins claimed to have quit 8kun on Election Day, and he has since appeared several times as an expert on the right-wing cable channel OAN to push false conspiracy theories about Dominion Voting Systems machines, even though he has no experience with voting machines.
Rep. Denver Riggleman, R-Va., who co-sponsored legislation to condemn QAnon that passed in the House in October, said he is worried that QAnon's biggest influencers, such as Watkins and Flynn, "are creating an alternate power structure that will force people into the left-right boundaries of dangerous and fantastical belief systems."
"This has metastasized into a cult based on some arcane type of religious fervor," he added.
As Trump meets with QAnon influencers, the conspiracy theory's adherents beg for dictatorship
With Trump's days in office dwindling, QAnon influencers have become increasingly restless and militant, urging the president to "#crosstherubicon.”
