New Thread for Day 3 of the Dallas, Texas For God and Country Patriot Roundup!
Mute this thread or me if you don’t want to see a bunch of QAnon Conference livetweeting on your timeline.
They say they’re going to be starting soon. Right now there’s no video of the conference only audio. They’re playing a bunch of copyrighted music like Plush by Stone Temple Pilots.
Audience is complimenting Andre Popa’s pants, but I can’t see them because the video isn’t up despite Popa speaking right now.
For the entire conference there’s been this call and response chant.
Popa: Who’s a Patriot?!
Audience: I’m a Patriot!
Popa: Who’s a Patriot?!
Audience: I am!
A 10 y/o child in a “Fuck Biden” hat and a “Make America Great Again” hoodie has been pulled up on stage. He seems visibly nervous.
Popa’s asking him why America and freedom is important to him, the kid says because he doesn’t want to lose it.
Popa’s asking how his parents instilled Patriotism, kid says that everything basically does that and that they bring him to places like this.
Popa asks if they can talk about Biden, kids says no. Popa asks if the kid thinks biden is alive kid says “No, At least he shouldn’t be.”
Popa asks what the kid wants to do when he grows up, kid says he wants to work in his dads shop and go into the military.
Kid has the mic, he is thanking all of the private security for keeping the place safe.
Leonard (A 95 y/o WW2 vet you can see meeting Flynn in this video), is up on stage with his wife.
Popa’s asking why Leonard joined the military, Leonard says he was in school and then was dragged out of it, that’s why he joined.
He’s saying that he’s never been treated so wonderfully in his life than at this conference.
He’s talking about his experiences in the war. He was in the Navy and fought in the pacific theatre, specifically bringing up Okinawa and the Philippines.
His wife is talking about how they met and their marriage, it’s pretty sweet.
The kid has come back up on stage to hug Leonard, his “Fuck Biden” hat appears to be signed but I can’t make out who signed it.
Veterans are all coming up on stage, there are a lot of them. An audience member says”We can start our own army!”
A woman on stage is talking about her husband who died in Iraq.
They’re saying the pledge of allegiance now.
Crowd of veterans screenshots.
Popa’s daughter has come up on stage to sing the national anthem again.
Music selection is great. It’s like riding in a car with my parents. Right now it Rock’n Me by Steve Miller Band.
Sid Miller!!!
He’s our Agriculture Commissioner (statewide elected position) with a *lot* of scandals. My fav scandal of his is appointing a doctor with a revoked medical license (was revoked because he married his 15 y/o former step daughter) to the rural health board. statesman.com/NEWS/20180407/…
*Rural Health Task Force, sorry.
Currently telling a story about how his wife set up a chicken coop.
He’s mostly going over his job as agriculture commissioner, like his statutory functions and such. It’s a lot of agricultural supply chain stuff, along with inspection stuff.
He’s talking about going to China to try to get them to buy Texas beef. He’s talking about how they wouldn’t let him take his Smith and Wesson to China on the plane.
He is doing a accent of a Chinese person now.
Oh, he’s talking about how he knew on Jan 20 that he knew that Trump would not remain president. Isn’t playing well.
He’s saying that the Trump admin should have put more gunboats and razor wire on the border.
He’s talking about our electric grid and it needing to be fixed. IDK how this will play to the crowd, many of them aren’t natives and probably don’t know/care about the grid.
He’s talking election integrity. He says there’s no doubt in his mind that Trump won the election and that it was stolen. He believes that Trump actually won Texas by 25 points.
He’s saying that Abbott cannot win re-election because of all the businesses that are coming out against him.
Audience is asking if Sid Miller is running for governor. The audience seems very enthusiastic. He says “Hey, y’all’ve been getting any rain?”
Now is Trenton White!
He’s talking about how he wants to be a leader, and telling the audience that they need to fight. That he wants to get people to realize “the brainwashing stops”.
He’s shaming Austin for supposedly teaching pre-K students about sex.
He’s challenging doctors to actually write down if a baby is a boy or a girl.
Oh! He’s saying that Trump is a 4 year president, and that he needs to stay in the background so that new heat like him can rise up.
He’s saying that there hasn’t been a strong black leader since MLK in this party (presumably talking about the Republican Party.)
He’s saying that he’s giving up his freedoms and privacy for the audience. That he won’t be able to go to Walmart or a car wash without a disguise, but he wants that.
He says he understands BLM but they’re going about it the wrong way. He says he doesn’t have problem with cops, but that the 1-2% of cops who think they’re above the law should be fired.
He’s saying that the Democrats are brainwashing black people, but they’re actually keeping them down.
He says he loves what Candace Owens does, but he needs her to come down to the ground level with him to talk to those who have been left behind/disenfranchised.
He keeps talking about how he wants to lead. This very much seems like a “I’m going to be running for something, vote for me in that” speech.
He’s saying that we should stop being judgements of people who have tattoos and piercings, because if they believe in God, God will forgive them. That those people should be let into the party.
Popa says “My fellow Americans, the storm is upon us.”

Bevelyn Beatty and Edmee Chavannes are back and doing a Q&A session. Popa is begging the audience to actually ask questions this time, not tell stories.
First question is not a question, it’s a lady saying they are inspirational.
Another lady (presumably white) is asking how to effectively engage with the Black community.
