QAnon conspiracy theorists are gathering at the Washington Monument today. I’ll be on hand to cover it — the event is set to kick off this afternoon.
The Washington monument has been a controversial choice for the QAnon rally because, as I wrote earlier this year, many Q believers think it’s a Satanic symbol.

The QAnon rally in DC has a meme table with printed-out memes for distribution. They also have Q awareness bracelets.
The QAnon rally is kicking off with a prayer for “operators in harm’s way” and “Q team”
The first speakers at the QAnon rally say their children got sick of them talking about Q and said they wouldn’t talk to their parents until the end of the Trump administration — “We said, we’ll see you in 6 years.”
The QAnon rally has rapidly become a 9/11 Truth rally. “Jet fuel doesn’t even burn that hot!” says speaker @Education4Libs
One of the QAnon speakers is insisting a guy in the crowd is me in disguise. Needless to say, he’s not. Good luck to that guy!
So far speakers have been pretty vague about QAnon’s nuttiest aspects, but now speaker Gene Ho is accusing world elites of drinking children’s blood.
A woman at the QAnon rally says she walked by John Podesta on the street today — “It shook me to my core.” Another speaker explain how he got a sinking feeling when he got lost and drove by Comet Ping Pong.
QAnon rallygoers are now roundly booing the concept of vaccines. Earlier, someone advised drinking turpentine if you’re sick.
One QAnon believer keeps asking whether Mike Pence is an “agent of the Smithsonian.” This is proving to be a galaxy brain take, even for fellow QAnon believers.
