Mercedes Sparks—who works for NAR apostle Lance Wallnau, a 7 Mountains dominionist—confirms that she is the one who made the MAGA rally map for Jan 6. @January6thCmte 1/
.@natedog155 made the initial connection. Or at least that’s how I found out about it. 2/
3/ Post 1: “I saw all these memes coming out … [M]illions of people are showing up & I’m like u guys we can’t have memes like how are people going to know where to go?” - Mercedes Sparks
So she made the map, her friend got it to Raheem Kassam (Bannon’s War room) & it spread.
4/ Post 1: “I’m talking to my friend Steve & Steve kind of does all of our events & he’s doing most of the events here like a lot of the technical stuff like consulting & assisting so he’s got a lot of details I was like we need maps…” - Mercedes Sparks
5/ Steve is almost certainly Steve Brown of Resource Media in Florida who does a lot of Lance Wallnau’s Christian revival events.
6/ Mercedes and her husband (Larry Sparks) seem to be very close with NAR apostles Lance Wallnau & Dutch Sheets.
7/ NAR apostles Lance Wallnau & Dutch Sheets are two of the men on stage reciting the chilling dominionist decree. The other two are pastors Mario Murillo & Hank Kunneman. The event was televised by Gene Bailey (on stage) of Flashpoint on Ken Copeland’s Victory Channel.
8/ I wrote about the NAR (including Wallnau & Sheets) and it’s apparent alliance with Michael Flynn, Roger Stone (who has ties to violent extremists), MTG, & Boebert here. buckscountybeacon.com/2022/08/underr…
9/ I’m noticing a few “lock her up” style comments in my replies. Please just don’t. Not on my TL. I see no indication that she anticipated violence. What this new info does suggest is that the NAR may have been more involved in planning Jan 6 rallies than we knew before.
10/
11/ The Disney PSYOP came later. But yes I found this ironic too.
12/ This is Lance Wallnau. He built his reputation around his “prophesy” that Trump would be elected in 2016. He viewed Trump as God’s chaos agent who would take a wrecking ball to everything so that America cld rebuild as a theocracy
13/ He has his sights set on Brazil too. This is a national movement.
14/ NAR apostle Lance Wallnau with Mike Lindell & Doug Mastriano campaign advisor Jenna Ellis
15/ This is an email from Jenny Limcher, an assistant to Texas billionaire Al Hartman who sits on the board of TPUSA and seems to fund various projects through United in Purpose/Ziklag. Note recipients Hartman, Wallnau, Flynn, Lin Wood, Eastman & ASOG (Ramsland, Keet Lewis).
16/ Years ago, Keet Lewis (ASOG) worked for Bill Bright, founder of Campus Crusade who allegedly had a divine vision in the 1970s that led to the dominionist 7 Mountains mandate popularized by Wallnau.
17/ Russ Ramsland of ASOG is the guy who switched Michigan & MInnesota data, creating the false impression that Michigan had more than 100 % turnout washingtonpost.com/politics/2020/…
18/ Al Hartman’s apparent ties to UIP/Ziklag.
19/
20/ United in Purpose/Ziklag is tied to the NAR via NAR apostle Jim Garlow (another 7 Mountains dominionist).
21/ Note that ASOG, in addition to its dominionist ties (via J. Keet Lewis), was founded by Adam Taichung Kraft who once worked w/ Mike Flynn. web.archive.org/web/2020122804…
22/ Phil Waldron, a retired colonel with expertise in PSYOPs, has said that he also worked with ASOG. thedispatch.com/p/who-is-phil-…
23/ So did Joshua Merritt, code name “Spyder” who Sidney Powell called a “military intelligence” expert except he never worked in military intelligence.
24/ Merritt himself later debunked Lindell’s false claim that he had proof of Chinese hacking.
25/
26/ @HarriHursti, a highly regarded election-security expert, agreed with him.
27/ Attorney Jenna Ellis (part of Trump’s legal team) worked with ASOG.
28/ As explained here, MAGA lawyer @JennaEllisEsq & Rudy Giuliani used a chopped up video to falsely imply that counterfeit ballots had been retrieved from suitcases under a table in Georgia during the 2020 election. threadreaderapp.com/thread/1567176…
29/ Ellis now works 4 Mastriano, @PAGOP’s gubernatorial candidate. As I show here, Mastriano has close NAR ties & also spread the viral false claim—based on switched primary & general election data—that PA had counted more mail ballots than were sent out. buckscountybeacon.com/2022/06/doug-m…
30/ NAR apostle Lance Wallnau really wants Mastriano in the PA Governor’s mansion & says his friends in Dallas will help make it happen. 👀
31/ Seems relevant.
.@malcolmkenyatta
32/ “Caught on Tape: Doug Mastriano Prayed for MAGA to ‘Seize the Power’ Ahead of Jan. 6”
“The content of & context of Mastriano’s participation on the call gives lie to his protestations that he’s neither affiliated w/ NAR nor a Christian Nationalist.” rollingstone.com/politics/polit…
33/ Article in post 32 is by @7im. New today.
34/
35/ I think this is where Mercedes talks about making the map. It’s a thread.
36/ @January6thCmte: If you haven’t spoken to Lance Wallnau, this must change. His colleague & fellow evangelist Rick Joyner, has called for a church-based military takeover & imposition of martial law since 2014. twocare.org/pro-revolution…
37/
38/
39/
40/ Wallnau & Joyner, Oak Initiative 2015.
41/ “Joyner has repeatedly warned that the US is heading 4 civil war & claimed that God has “seeded our country” with “good militias” run by military veterans experienced in urban warfare.” 5/2/22 (The article indicates that Oak Initiative still exists) rightwingwatch.org/post/christian…
42/ I know I should not be shocked anymore, but I still am.
43/
44/ Yes, Wallnau is still a member. Joyner still in charge. Some general too. theoakinitiative.org/member-area
45/
46/ These are really scary & bad people.
47/ Related thread. threadreaderapp.com/thread/1568346…
48/ Wallnau & Ali Alexander on Flashpint
49/ Wallnau & other religious leaders with Stewart Rhodes (head of the Oathkeepers)
50/
51/ Wallnau’s close colleague.
53/ “‘We're in time 4 war. We need to recognize that. We need to mobilize. We need to get ready,’ Joyner said…He went on 2 discuss ‘our civil war,’ saying…he'd seen in a dream that ‘militias wld pop up like mushrooms’ & they wld be backed by God” 9/14/20 newsweek.com/evangelical-pa…
54/ This is so depressing.
.@threadreaderapp pls unroll.
