Thread. Q-promoting former high-ranking intel officials, but who like Flynn mostly left on bad terms, include Michael Scheuer, Bill Binney, Kevin Shipp, Larry Johnson, Ed Loomis -- several praised as Bush-era whistleblowers by liberals but now in deep with Dem-hating Q groups 1/

Read the thread. Lots of names familiar to me from their intel work or their whistleblowing 10 to 30 years ago, but who I had no idea were now in the Q stuff like Flynn 2/
A number are linked to a weird group "International Tribunal of Natural Justice", founded in 2015 in part to combat what they claimed was a global elite conspiracy of child sex trafficking, but also just grifting by representing themselves as legit and charging fees 3/
Website for the group. They allege satanic rituals, organ harvesting, and per writings about them, seem to dislike all transnational institutions -- UN, Catholic church, globalist financiers, etc.

That they were making more or less the full Q argument in 2015 is interesting, though of course the Q "global cabal of child killers" is quite an old (and typically anti-semitic) trope. 5/
You'll find it unsurprising that many are very friendly towards Russia / Putin, including several denying that any 2016 Russia hacking ever happened, and promoting the Seth Rich conspiracy as the alternative explanation. 6/
Indeed, lot of overlap w "Veteran Intelligence Professionals for Sanity", originally 2003 Iraq war opposition group gone steadily more anti-US / pro-Russia, including claims Russia didnt really invade Ukraine and that intl conspiracy is framing Assad for chem use by pro-US rebels
Fitting the "disaffected intel vets who liberals used to like" VISP prominently includes Scott Ritter, though he doesn't seem to promote the Q-style pedophile ring conspiracy theories nor supported Trump
