Here at Dealey Plaza, where hundreds of QAnon supporters have gathered expecting JFK Jr to reveal himself where his father was assassinated. (JFK Jr. died in a plane crash in 1999.)

Crowd, including a group holding a Trump/Kennedy 2020 sign, breaks out into a rendition of the national anthem on the grassy knoll. A segment of QAnon followers believed JFK Jr — who has been dead for more than 20 years — would run on a ticket with Trump in 2020

Experts who have followed QAnon for years said even they were surprised by the turnout today in Dallas. “Frankly, I’m kind of shocked at how many people turned out for this,” @jaredlholt told me.

A pretty steady rainfall has driven a big part of the group to cover, but the lost hardcore QAnon adherents are still standing on the grassy knoll. Every few seconds, passing cars honk their horns over the Xs on the streets marking the spots where JFK was shot.

Taking shelter with a group of folks who seem to believe Trump will walk into the White House as president tomorrow morning

Amid heavy rain, and without any signs of JFK Jr, most of the group seems to have left the grassy knoll. But I’m hearing another gathering is planned for tonight’s Rolling Stones concert at the Cotton Bowl.

A QAnon follower explains why she’s in Dallas today. She believes JFK wasn’t assassinated, and the 104-year-old former president is going to help usher in a Trump/JFK Jr. Administration.

Now the group’s gathered at the entrance of the Dallas County Administration Building — the former Texas School Book Depository from where JFK was shot— reciting Gematria, which is some sort of Biblical numerology language (I have no idea what any of this means)

Here's our story from the afternoon. Thanks to @jaredlholt for the much-needed context.

Don't worry, I'll be back at Dealey Plaza around midnight. Here's hoping JFK Jr. can at least wait until Game 6 is over for the big reveal. dallasnews.com/news/2021/11/0…

A favor for people still reading this thread: If you live in Texas, especially the DFW area, and have struggled with a family member or friend falling into extremism/conspiracy rabbit holes, I would like to talk.
