Good morning from Mannheim, PA where I’ll be covering the Great Awakening show here the next couple days.

This is a Christian nationalist, QAnon-friendly conference featuring Michael Flynn and tomorrow - GOP candidate for governor Doug Mastriano.
Pastor Greg Locke talking about how he’s been targeted by “BLM, antifa, witches and warlocks” Image
Book-burning, COVID-denying, QAnon pastor Greg Locke rides a horse
Mike Lindell complaining how Fox and Newsmax wouldn’t let him talk about Dominion voting systems

Also keeps calling out NYT, WaPo, and HuffPost, who all have reporters here, for writing negative stories Image
Numerological prophecies on stage right now ImageImage
Crowd cheers as speaker Bo Polny declares prophecy that the “Angel of death” will be visiting these people by end of year

Ends speech by saying “45 is coming back!” Image
Even tho Mastriano is billed as a speaker tomorrow … rumblings here that he won’t show, that he’s too busy
Tania Joy Gibson tells the crowd gender dysphoria is the work of Satan and then… Image
Leads crowd in song
Roger Stone is speaking now - “I’m guilty of loving President Donald Trump”
Stone ends speech by talking abt his mentor Richard Nixon, calls Trump the greatest president of his lifetime, then does his best Nixon-leaving-the-White-House-after-resigning pose Image
Julie Green, who has close ties to GOP gov nominee Doug Mastriano, is a “prophet” who claims to have a direct line to God.

She delivered one of God’s new prophecies - about taking down the current government - on stage to big cheers
More on Julie Green and Mastriano here from @ehananoki mediamatters.org/qanon-conspira…
Unclear if Mastriano is gonna show today or tomorrow at all - but his campaign has a booth here Image
Morning all again from Manheim, PA where it’s day 2 of the Great Awakening show, a Christian nationalist / QAnon-friendly conference hosted by Mike Flynn and where GOP gov nominee Doug Mastriano is scheduled to speak today
I was handed this book upon arrival Image
Some vendor booths ImageImageImageImage
Now on stage: Simone Gold, a COVID denialist/anti-vax figure who went to prison for her involvement in Jan 6, and who was released last month ImageImage
A “Save The Kids” shirt a woman was wearing mapping out the tunnels where the Illuminati are apparently harvesting adrenochrrome from sex-trafficked children.

Anyway GOP nominee for PA governor Doug Mastriano is scheduled to speak here later Image

Mike Flynn says him and his wife recently took poll-watching training
Crowd cheering the bombing of the Georgia Guidestones during a presentation by QAnon conspiracist Sheila Holm Image

Welp racist Katie Hopkins is on stage now leading the Great Awakening crowd in a dance
Katie Hopkins talked about how Muslims were out-reproducing non-Muslims in the UK, and about how Black gangs were attacking white farmers in South Africa - straight-up white nationalist shit. Gets huge cheers.

GOP gov nominee Doug Mastriano still scheduled to speak later Image
Now it’s Overstock founder Patrick Byrne giving a very convoluted speech about his affair with Russian spy Maria Butina and promoting his claim that he was part of a an FBI sting operation to bribe Hillary Clinton in 2016… Image
Lookin more and more like Mastriano is not gonna show - but plenty of people in his orbit, people who have spoken at his rallies, have been here all wknd.

His campaign just packed up its booth here and left, telling me he can’t make it even tho he was on the schedule.
Zoning out for the latest anti-vax speech of the weekend, just tuned back in for a second and heard “quantum physics is demonic” so
One of the last speakers today is the daughter of the late “prophet” Kim Clement. She’s playing a video about her dad, who claimed to have god-given visions about 9/11, the death of Bin Laden, and ISIS all before they happened.

Eric Trump spoke on this stage yesterday
Alrighty Mastriano was a no show and in his time slot were some “prophets.” Expect a story later this week.

That’s a wrap for me - thanks for following along. Off to have many beers.

NEW: Police officer John Donnelly attended/helped plan the deadly Nazi rally in Charlottesville. (Was Richard Spencer's bodyguard.)

He went to a Nazi party celebrating the rally & posted racist slurs.

Then he returned to being a cop for 5 yrs. Until now huffpost.com/entry/john-don…
The Woburn, Mass. cop's role in Charlottesville — & his many racist posts, some calling for violence — were uncovered by the anti-fascist collective @UnmaskUTR, whose research HuffPost has verified.

After a HuffPost inquiry, Donnelly has been suspended. huffpost.com/entry/john-don…
Officer Donnelly went by "Johnny O'Malley" in private Nazi chats planning the Charlottesville rally. (Chats obtained & published online by @UR_Ninja)

CW: He frequently used slurs. huffpost.com/entry/john-don… ImageImage

New: Gab was key to the Tree of Life synagogue massacre. The site’s owner is a raging anti-Semite. The GOP nominee for PA gov, @dougmastriano, paid Gab $5k for “campaign consulting.” Now every new account on Gab automatically follows Mastriano. huffpost.com/entry/doug-mas…
it flew a lil under the radar that Mastriano - who refuses to talk to mainstream press - sat down for an interview with Gab CEO Andrew Torba, who is an anti-Semitic piece of shit. “Thank god for what you have done,” Mastriano told Torba. This is Torba: huffpost.com/entry/doug-mas…
Thankfully the folks at Media Matters documented it mediamatters.org/gab/gab-ceo-an…

New: My dispatch from Idaho's Christian nationalist insurgency, where extremists are seizing power, in part, by targeting their opponents w/ shocking cruelty.

Now, a 'cry for help' & a warning from those targeted: Idaho is a blueprint & a bellwether.
huffpost.com/entry/far-righ…
This is the story Idaho Lt. Gov Janice McGeachin — running for governor in today's primary — teased for everyone last week
McGeachin is part of a large & growing radical MAGA faction in the state’s GOP which has openly allied itself w/ white nationalists & militias to a shocking extent, even for the Trump era. huffpost.com/entry/far-righ…

New: A @HuffPost investigation into the inner-workings of Patriot Front, the secretive white supremacist group on a nationwide hate crime spree.

From me & @awinston: huffpost.com/entry/patriot-…
Patriot Front — per a new @HuffPost tally — vandalized, destroyed, or disappeared 40 statues & murals memorializing Black Americans killed by police, or other BLM symbols, during a 1-year period from Aug. 2020 to Aug. 2021. (More have been targeted since.) huffpost.com/entry/patriot-…
These acts — carried out by white masked men, under the cover of night — are designed to strike fear into communities.

Patriot Front members are rarely caught/prosecuted for these hate crimes, which the group broadcasts in propaganda reels posted to @telegram. A sampling:
