You might see this article doing the rounds.

I regret to inform you that the sourcing is weak — just some stuff Patrick Byrne said in late August, plus a healthy dose of speculation.

I WISH it were rock-solid reporting, but… 🤷‍♂️

nationalmemo.com/amp/arizona-au…
BTW, it IS true that the new hotness in audit spaces is “well, just counting the ballots isn’t enough! We need to do a *canvass.*”

And I suspect part of that is that they’re realizing: oh, no, the ballots really DO match the official totals. But that CAN’T mean no fraud!
But it’s just WAY too soon to assume that the AZ Senate report will *refrain* from whackadoodle, easily debunked claims about “massive fraud.”

The truth is, those claims are incredibly useful to Republicans. So IMO a better read on Byrne’s remarks is:
“Damn, I sure am nervous at all these delays. Also the hated ESTABLISHMENT REPUBLICANS” (reality check: the AZ GOP is absolutely off-its-fucking-gourd extreme & sprints to the right like it’s speedrunning Dead Cells) “will be reviewing it & editing stuff out? MUST BE A COVERUP.”

Fred IS prominently thanked, and with good reason.

In fact, let me thank him extra: thanks, Fred!

P.S. If you're using dChan, especially our frequency-of-a-search-term-over-time tool, you should read the About section bc there's Stuff You Should Know™.

Some might say that the "frequency-of-a-search-term-over-time tool" is actually called the "time series visualizer," but I say to them: shut up and stop being correct, you jerks. >:(

Anyway, here it is if you wanna play around with it, kids.

dchan.qorigins.org/timeseries
By default it's set to display how frequently the term is used per 1,000 posts in our dataset.

You CAN switch to a different view, where it measures the absolute frequency of a term, but there are almost no circumstances in which you SHOULD.

HOW Q-PILLED IS THE ARIZONA “AUDIT” FAN BASE?

1) Someone named “ArizQna” runs the Arizona audit watch channel. (Screenshot 1)

They then moved this channel, and its associated chats, to the “US audit watch” (screenshot 2). ImageImage
ArizQna is the owner of the US audit watch channel and describes it as “our chat room.” They actively participate in discussions.

So right off the bat, we know that most of the discussion on Telegram is happening in a space created, and managed by, one of Q’s followers. Image
2) What about rank-and-file followers? I’M SO GLAD YOU ASKED.

It’s not that all conversation revolves around Q drops — that’s just not how Q Telegram *talks* anymore, with the possible exception of MelQ and a few other diehards — but it DOES come up: Image

I've mentioned that I'm doing manuscript review for a QUITE GOOD book about QAnon.

Now I can reveal that it's @vanbadham's "QAnon and On," available for pre-order below.

I recommend it wholeheartedly as VERY STRONG companion to @rothschildmd's book.

bookdepository.com/QAnon-On-Van-B…
It covers, so to speak, the deep background of QAnon -- it goes into depth about some of the trends in Internet culture and 4chan culture that drove QAnon into prominence.

It also talks movingly (and with some incredible anecdotes) about the personal cost of QAnon.
And while it has some light overlap with Mike's book, Mike's is -- for me -- the book I would give someone who goes "What's the deal with this QAnon thing?"

But Van's is the book I would give someone who asked "Where does this QAnon thing come from?"

This is in reference to a critically ill woman.

“Patriots” are flooding the hospital with calls demanding that they release her — also they’ve called the cops. So far on Telegram, I’ve seen calls to:

* Pull the fire alarm
* Storm in and take her
* Hang hospital staff

And more!
Iiiiiiiit’s not fuckin’ great, people!

Oh, and a smug motherfucker with a Ron Paul sticker in his broadcast booth is doing some kind of audio livestream and pausing to say things like, “I guess that’s 111 subscribers in the past hour or so ago.”
Now, there’s some good news: it appears there are only a handful of people actually on the scene, so hopefully they WON’T try to barge in.

OTOH, imagine you’re working in the hospital emergency department, or a patient waiting there. The phone keeps ringing off the hook…

We -- meaning the Project -- are keeping tabs on a small "medical freedom" rally happening in the Midwest rn.

It opened with a Hebrew Roots pastor blowing a shofar. Here's a rundown of what the last speaker had to say, courtesy @kunstderfuge1 (who's giving us the play by play):
That last line does not, in any way, make me despair. 🙃

Anyway, the current speaker is of the "I'm not antivaxx, but..." AND ALSO "I'm not a conspiracy theorist, but..." varieties (though fun twist: he claims to be vaccinated!).
Also it should be obvious that we're not, you know, ENDORSING his claims by reproducing them.

It's just interesting to see the same claims and rhetoric going around. Also, I keep wanting to ask: if the vaccine is killing people, why AREN'T you anti-vaxx?

Some highlights from a Calm Before the Storm thread on November 2, 2017. This is CBTS thread #3, one of the earliest spaces for discussion of Q's claims.

Thread is linked below but, as always, the content is vile. Screenshots may be gross, too.

Anyway:

archive.4plebs.org/pol/thread/147…
What we see in the screenshots above is that, as I have noted many many times, the anons were pickin' up what Q was puttin' down RIGHT away, with little or no clarification needed from Q.

In fact, let's zoom and enhance on that Canada-flag anon:

This is, indeed, the direction in which Q took the Uranium 1 narrative.

U1 is a deeeeeeeeep cut of QAnon lore. In brief, it comes from a Definitely Real Scandal™ thrown into the conservative mainstream by a journalist at The Hill, John Solomon, in mid-October 2017.
