I'm usually really longwinded but in this case I'm just going to get the point.
No, Pat King did not prove that Covid-19 "hasn't been isolated" thus proving the pandemic isn't real. 1/

Even the screen shot he posted that he thinks supports his victory does quite the opposite. 2/ 
Pat King is ignorant in that the Justice of the Peace he tried to get the subpoena from had no legal authority to issue it. 3/
This was explained to King by the judge, but King clearly doesn't understand that he lost and his suit was thrown out. 4/

Again, what King is claiming is absolutely not true and might be one of the best examples of the Dunning–Kruger effect in action. 6/

It should also be noted that this is all based on the conspiracy that Covid-19 doesn't exist. That the virus "has not been isolated."
Except, that it has. 7/

Unfortunately, as this FB thread indicates, you can't break people out of their conspiratorial mindset if it supports their narrative. This one starts with a claim that the Delta variant is part of a Democrat conspiracy supported by the Liberal Party. 8/
One woman tries to explain the Delta variant predates the Arizona faux audit. Steve Gutsche, a QAnon advocate and formerly an administrator on the Northern Guard Facebook group, jumped in with the "Covid not isolated" schtick. 9/
FYI, Gutsche is referenced in this article on ARC: 10/

When the woman explains her background and provides a link from Reuters that shows it has been isolated, Gutsche claims Reuters is part of the cabal and demands she send him Covid samples so he can confirm it exists. 11/
I have to admit there is a part of me that wants to be a fly on the wall as Gutsche dusts off the Sears Junior Chemistry set he got for Christmas when he was 10 years old but never opened at the time in order to crack the case. 12/
Anyways I use Gutsche as an example of the kind of people who will believe King, sight unseen and without question, because it confirms what they already believe and because they reject anything that contradicts their accepted narrative. 13/
And here are some more of those people. 14/

17/
These people, based on King's erroneous understanding of a loss in court, are going to be a problem. They are going to clog up courts with the decision to quash King's suit being cited as if it is case law. 18/
They are going to use it to harass business owners enforcing their own Covid rules. They will use it to harass health workers. They will use it to interfere with vaccinations. 19/
And as a reminder, once again, KING LOST!
There is no merit to his claim.
He is just to dumb to realize how dumb he is. 20/

But Pat is going to milk this. Here he is in Nanaimo last week talking about his efforts. 21/
He eventually gets to talking about his great victory getting Dr. Hinshaw and AHS to "admit" that they had no material evidence. 22/
Once again, that is NOT what the court said but King doesn't read past the heading. 23/
And the kicker?
King says he is going to travel across the country teaching people to do what he did... which I assume means he is going to teach people to make erroneous arguments, get tossed out of court, and then claim victory. 24/

Now, we sort of have an idea of the pseudo-legal woo King plans on "teaching" to people based on his chat with sovereign citizen proponent and angry chimney sweep Duke Willis posted on July 28 to Pat's Instagram account. 25/
In Willis' mind, the big take away was that King "proved" that Covid was a lie.
Again, it is not a lie. 26/
Again, it is not a lie. 26/
Pat then provides some of his... er... wisdom on why he subpoenaed Dana Hinshaw regarding the quarantine in Alberta. 27/
Duke then gets to the meat of the issue suggesting that King contact sovereign citizen guru of the moment Christopher James. 27/
Let me note here right now if anyone suggests you take legal advice from Christopher James, run away. 28/

In fact, it seems that Christopher James does factor into this story in that someone using his strategy got themselves stomped into a mudhole. 32/
Don't worry though. Willis thinks he knows the reason why the "Christopher James" method didn't work in this case. 32/
He follows it up with some more pseudo-legal woo. 33/
According to Duke Willis, it is all about threading that needle with the "right words."
Pat King seems to be listening attentively which I suspect will turn out to be a bad thing for Pat. 35/

Willis also advises King to record proceedings. King said he was told not to, but claims he did anyways which seems to be sorta illegal. 36/
For those interested in the "admiralty law" conspiracy being referenced, here are a few useful links. 37/

One thing I have to give him begrudging credit for is how smug and confident he is in his stupidity. 41/
And finally, a reminder why being fined for violating Covid health restrictions will likely not be the last fine Pat King (or Duke Willis) will be facing. 42/

Looks like I ended up breaking this thread twice. Here is where I first continue:

Here is the next part where the thread was broken.

Just going to say when Ezra Levant is calling you on your BS, then you might just be BSing. 43/

Also, hard to die from something that doesn't exist. 44/

So it seems that we have a new development. 45/
I've done a few tweet threads in Jay Riedel including his own opposition to Covid lockdowns. 46/
https://twitter.com/ARCCollective/status/1338660338011525122?s=20
Also his initial support of the January 6 insurrection at the Capitol Building in Washington DC that was inspired by Trump.... 47/
https://twitter.com/ARCCollective/status/1360678756285779969?s=20
.... before backtracking and claiming it was DEFINITLY antifa. 48/
https://twitter.com/ARCCollective/status/1347068066568433664?s=20
Now Riedel isn't just anyone with a bone to pick with King. At one time, Pat was Jay's ride or die. 49/

In his complaint about him today, Riedel implies financial maleficence by King. 53/
I find all this very interesting. 54/
In response to Levant also confirming that yes, Pat lost, Pat's gf said Levant doesn't know what the court said because they don't know what the court said. 56/
