Today’s pro-Trump rally in DC has kicked off with a guy who rewrote Folsom Prison Blues to be about Parler.
Proud Boys leader Enrique Tarrio appears to have been invited to the White House. Pic from his Parler account this morning.
Bad news for Fox: the guy with this sign has ditched them in favor of something called “Worldview Weekend”
Vincent Fusca — the man many QAnon believers claim is JFK Jr in disguise — is here. People are shouting “JFK” at him and asking for selfies.
The QAnon presence today seems much more visible than last month’s rally, probably because there are fewer people. Even Arizona’s “Q Shaman,” who dresses in animal pelts and promotes QAnon, is here.
Michael Flynn arrives to big cheers, flanked by former Overstock CEO Patrick Byrne, who claims he’s leading an army of hackers to prove the election was stolen.
This guy is into militias AND QAnon
The organizer of the Stop the Steal rally is talking about her belief the election was stolen by an evil supercomputer named Hammer. To fight back, she has brought a real hammer, and bangs it on the podium.
This Trump rallygoer declined to explain his shirt.
Tension at the MAGA rally as far-right “groypers” spot pro-Trump drag queen “Lady MAGA” and start heckling.

Police prevented about 100 Proud Boys, including this guy, from reaching protesters at the White House

Pro-Trump lawyer Lin Wood kicks off his latest "voter fraud" press conference by attacking George Soros: "Get out of country, George Soros!"
Now Lin Wood saw a guy wearing a coonskin cap in the crowd. Wood picked it up and waved it, to the crowd's great delight.
Lin Wood tells a raucous crowd to sit out the Georgia Senate races until David Perdue and Kelly Loeffler back up Trump's effort to overturn the vote: "Why would you go back and vote in another rigged election?"
I'm reading Sidney Powell's much-hyped "kraken" legal filing. So far, she misspells her key expert's name twice — his name is William Briggs, she calls him "Williams Briggs" and "William Higgs."
These are the first lines of Sidney Powell's "kraken" lawsuit that Trump supporters have been claiming would save his presidency, not looking great. The rest is just rehashed witness affidavits, including one that claims the ballot paper was suspiciously clean.
A key part of Sidney Powell's Michigan kraken lawsuit relies on a guy who claims he infiltrated an antifa conference call about rigging the election. Sounds believable!
Thousands of Trump supporters are here in DC for the “Million MAGA March.” So far I’ve seen plenty of Proud Boys, QAnon supporters, and admiring references to Kyle Rittenhouse.
The Million MAGA March speakers got a little boring, so Alex Jones and a phalanx of Proud Boys kicked off the march to the Supreme Court early.
Lots of signs and shirts at the Trump march calling for Fauci’s arrest
Exclusive: A clandestine network of organized QAnon believers has inspired child abductions and other crimes across the country. thedailybeast.com/qanon-promotes…
I've worked on uncovering this QAnon network for months, because I think we're entering a dangerous new phase of QAnon. In the past, QAnon crimes were committed by lone wolves. Now they're becoming more organized, and more effective. thedailybeast.com/qanon-promotes…
This QAnon network involves three groups: the Children's Crusade, a group that has sheltered QAnon fugitives and was inspired by a fugitive Canadian QAnoner named Agent Margaritaville.
Trump and his allies have embraced @stella_immanuel, a doctor with a viral video saying masks aren't needed. But Immanuel has also claimed that some medical issues are caused by sex with demons and witches, and that alien DNA is used in medical treatment. thedailybeast.com/stella-immanue…
Dr. Immanuel's claim that hydroxychloroquine works against coronavirus has gone viral on the right. But Trump supporters haven't noticed so far that Immanuel also believes that some gynecological problems are caused by demonic sperm. thedailybeast.com/stella-immanue…
Pro-HCQ doctor @stella_immanuel has also claimed that witches are using everything from "That's So Raven" and "The Wizards of Waverly Place" to toys to push witchcraft. She also believes the Magic 8-Ball "was a psychic." thedailybeast.com/stella-immanue…
The deafening cheers from the audience after Trump says "kung flu" make for a good reminder that Turning Point USA has been exposed, repeatedly, for having racist members in leadership positions
Quick thread on racism at Turning Point USA, whose affiliate Trump is speaking to today:
A campus chapter president-elect was removed after the release of a video showed him saying "white power" while a friend yelled the n-word. talkingpointsmemo.com/news/turning-p…
