I really cannot stress enough how bad the Hal Turner thing is.
Flynn was the head of the Defense Intelligence Agency before he became the Nat'l Security Adviser.
For him to be like "ah yes, this man who blames the Jews for everything? RELIABLE SOURCE!" is *pretty alarming.*
N.B. It is possible, of course, that the texts aren't legit. There's a hard cap on how reliable a source Lin Wood is, and the cap goes down quite a bit when he's talking about someone with whom he's enmeshed in a blood feud.
Which is almost everyone he's ever met, at this point.
But my *guess* is that this is an actual exchange he had with Flynn.
Gun to my head, I'd say it is far more likely to be legit than not. Maybe an 85-15 chance it's legit, though that's likely too generous to Flynn; I don't know that Wood is sophisticated enough to make fakes.
Of course, you can argue that it might be *someone pretending to be Flynn*, which... here's the thing:
during the post-election period, Lin Wood and Mike Flynn were moving in the same circles. Sidney Powell, Patrick Byrne, and Mike Lindell were common points of contact.
I would have to go back and re-read Byrne's narrative about the Kraken and other Stop the Steal hijinks to see whether he reports that Flynn and Wood were working *directly* together.
But I think it's highly likely Flynn and Wood have each other's real contact info.
UPDATE: Lin Wood has now posted a 16-minute audio clip -- apparently a recording of a phone call between Wood and Flynn.
There's a very juicy bit from about 8:20 forward, which contains an audio recording of Flynn *saying* he thinks Q is a leftist or CIA disinformation campaign.
This, of course, matches and authenticates the screenshot. Odds that the screenshot are faked just went way down.
@ResearchFQX is listening to it as well and will have some takeaways when he's done.
@ResearchFQX OK, @ResearchFQX put together a rush transcript of the QAnon portion of the call. It matches @noturtlesoup17's *less*-rushed transcript pretty darn closely.
I have no idea how these screenshots will look on mobile, so LMK if they're terrible.
Lin's pronunciation of "QAnon" is truly incredible. It's THIS close to "Q Anus."
Fox is still finishing up, and... wow, I knew Lin had a persecution complex. But comparing himself to Jesus????
TELEGRAM UPDATE: Lin Wood is now claiming that George Soros gave power of attorney to Mike Flynn.
There are hundreds -- maybe thousands -- of "Michael Flynns" in the US, so even assuming they're correctly interpreting the document in question (which is by no means a given!)...
what is that supposed to prove? In fact, mere minutes after posting that, Wood seems to realize: wait, shit, it's a different Michael Flynn.
But instead of deleting the posts, he waves his hands and mumbles, "Deep State!"
These f'ing people, man.
I should add that the document appeared -- if *I* was reading it correctly, which is ALSO by no means guaranteed -- to give three attorneys, ONE of whom was named Michael Flynn, power of attorney to dispose of about $1.2M for Soros.
Probably they were buying stock in something.
UPDATE: @ResearchFQX has done more transcription work.
He also has a VERY accurate complaint about Telegram's audio interface on mobile, which I'm leaving in because I believe I should tell the WHOLE truth :D
"You'll always have my loyalty" is an all-time great quote in the circumstances.
Small update: @janbobrowicz has created a little video with captions covering the key part of this call.
IF TRUMP LOSES, THEY'RE GOING TO SCREAM "FRAUD" AND REFUSE TO CERTIFY DEMOCRATIC ELECTORS IN ANY SWING STATE THEY CONTROL, REGARDLESS OF THE ACTUAL VOTE TALLIES.
This is why they're purging everyone who stood up to the Big Lie.
And yet... I literally have not heard a single nationally prominent Democrat *talk* about it. Not once.
Now, do I spend all my time listening to them? No, I do not. I spend my time monitoring the people who are *eagerly awaiting* the 2024 events I just mentioned.
So maybe the policymakers ARE talking about this in public and I'm just unaware of it. If so, please let me know.
But if I'm right and they're NOT discussing it, *why the fuck not?* People need to know what's up. Warning them in advance is very effective.
During the early days of QAnon, a lot of anons got all hot and bothered at the news that a Saudi prince named Al Waleed bin Talal had been detained by the Crown Prince of Saudi Arabia.
Surely this was the first gust of the Storm.
How's he doing today? Let's tour his megayacht!
This is the New Kingdom 5KR -- "New" because he recently bought it as a replacement for his OTHER megayacht, which was just called the Kingdom 5KR.
BTW, he didn't sell the old megayacht to fund this. He just reached into his spare-megayacht-change jar & used what he found.
Fun fact: the original megayacht, the Kingdom 5KR, was owned by Donald Trump before the Saudi prince picked it up.
Trump sold it during one of his bankruptcies; the prince picked it up.
The ongoing dispute between Lin Wood and Michael Flynn, Sidney Powell, et al, boils down to this:
When Rittenhouse went on Tucker Carlson's show and called Wood out for fundraising off him instead of helping him, Wood recognized that (correctly) as a HUGE reputational threat.
For all that anons *talk* about avoiding the MSM and not trusting Fox, etc etc, the truth is they're blown along by the winds of right-wing media.
Always have been, always will be. That was true even *before* Q ambled off into the sunset.
And we could probably stand to talk about that more! I think almost every analyst *knows* it but almost no one really puts it in the center of their analysis.
ANYWAY... Wood, seeing this threat, demanded that Flynn and Powell come to his defense with public support. They didn't.
HEY, YOU KNOW HOW EVERYONE WHO SPENDS ANY AMOUNT OF TIME IN CONSERVATIVE SPACES IS *SCREAMING* AT DEMOCRATS TO PUBLICIZE THE FUCKING THREAT TO DEMOCRACY, AND MAKE IT A CENTRAL POINT OF THEIR MESSAGING?
AND WHEN THE REPUBLICANS SIMPLY REFUSE TO CERTIFY THE NEXT DEMOCRATIC VICTORY, IT’S GONNA BE A LOT HARDER TO RESIST IN THE STREETS IF VOTERS ARE STUNNED THAT IT HAPPENED.
BY THE WAY, DO YOU THINK IT’S AN ELECTORAL ADVANTAGE FOR REPUBLICANS THAT THEIR VOTERS ARE CONSTANTLY CONVINCED A COMMUNIST TAKEOVER IS IMMINENT AND ONLY VOTING FOR REPUBLICANS CAN STOP IT???
I fucking do! It’s a pile of ridiculous lies but an EFFECTIVE pile of lies.
You may have seen Q's posts described as "cryptic." That's not ALWAYS true -- some were just links to tweets or what-have-you -- but there's a genre called "stringers" that looks a bit like (MADE-UP EXAMPLE):
DSRH_2021_GO_GO_GO
FTCPTD_2110
Gloves off
Godspeed
aRJT-2309-MZfSr
These were great fun for bakers -- meaning people who parsed these posts for clues about what Q might have meant-- because they could comb the news for any event that had appropriate initials, or letters, or (if they were into that kinda thing) the same gematria as a given word.
A famous early example was "Bunker Apple Yellow Sky," which I SWEAR I will one day do a thread about or die trying.
The short version is: anons decoded the phrase as meaning "Aylesbury" after a plane and helicopter collided with each other near that location in the UK.
This is a joint letter of recommendation and by God, it should have your name on it ASAP. It'll take like five minutes out of your life, and you know she deserves it.
Apply for access and I'll grant it ASAP -- I kept it restricted because, you know, ::gestures at Nazis::.
