Alfie Oakes & Drew-Montez Clark were involved in January 6 Big Lie Stop the Steal activism out of the Naples, FL area of Southwest FL. See this thread for more info: /4

Anthony Sabatini is scandal-prone Florida State Rep, who is darling of the Republican Liberty Caucus of Florida, an extremist organization described in this thread: /5
.@ChrisA023 finds that Ann Vandersteel, the QAnon influencer, is another new member of the #SarasotaSeditionSquad, with a media company registered locally. /6
heraldtribune.com/story/opinion/…
Ann Vandersteel’s media company Steel Truth is registered with the state of Florida, with principal address being a residence on #Sarasota’s #SiestaKey. Vandersteel is also listed with a PO Box in #Osprey, #SarasotaCounty. /7
search.sunbiz.org/Inquiry/corpor…
Ann Vandersteel's media company address was originally listed on filing documents as #Tequesta, FL in #PalmBeachCounty but was changed on Sept. 7, 2021. Yep, conspiracy theorists are descending on #Sarasota. /8
Perhaps QAnon conspiracy theorists are descending on #Sarasota because not only was Sarasota the original Florida hub of MAGA world & Trump campaign HQ in the state in 2016, it also has a QAnon-adjacent #SarasotaCounty Sheriff, Kurt Hoffman /9 heraldtribune.com/story/news/loc…
.@visionsurreal recently detailed Ann Vandersteel’s role in spreading the #Italygate Big Lie conspiracy theory /10

Why have we been roiled with school controversies nonstop in Florida? Maybe because there’s a mess of Florida-related January 6 activism to cover up & distract from. Here’s a thread regrouping Southwest & Central Florida January 6 activism. /1
.@propublica reports GOP fundraiser #CarolineWren met GOP operative #DustinStockton, a frequent #Sarasota visitor, at Willard Hotel in Washington DC on Jan 5. Jan. 6 committee currently seeks info on Willard meeting, where #SteveBannon was present. /2

Great article by @JaneMayerNYer that pulls together threads based on reporting from @anelsona & others on CNP, ALEC, etc. One thing national reporters still need is #Florida angle, particularly #SarasotaSeditionSquad. How to tell story of Trumpworld w/o Florida? You can't! /1
#Sarasota @HeraldTribune's @ChrisA0213 shows many local connections in his reporting. Cyber Ninjas based in Sarasota, plus Mike Flynn, not to mention Charlie Kirk, Steve Bannon & Florida GOP Chair Joe Gruters, head of RNC's "election integrity" unit /2

See several Twitter threads I've put together below for more information about the #SarasotaSeditionSquad & local connections to the Jan. 6 #CapitolAttack

Now that #SteveBannon’s recent involvement with Trump is coming to light after the #USCapitol riots, it’s worth reviewing Bannon's local Sarasota connections & his background, along with some other Trump associates. THREAD /1
bloomberg.com/news/articles/…
#SteveBannon, former Trump campaign CEO & former Breitbart CEO, has been plotting for radical right for years, exploiting a canny media strategy to co-opt mainstream media while pursuing his own alt-right media projects, as @JoshuaGreen found. /2
bloomberg.com/politics/graph…
#SteveBannon has long been at heart of radical right politics, including in leadership at the secretive Council for National Policy, along with Kellyanne Conway & Mercer family members /3
