    Having said that, I'm not happy with congress closing shop yesterday just because there was a threat for March 4. You have all that protection - stop being cowards and do your jobs.
    Alleged threats

    Just more made up bullshit to make people think that wall covered in razor wire and keeping the guardsman another 2mos is justifiable. Then May will roll around and more bogus claims of threats will pop up out of nowhere to keep the fence up longer and the guardsman longer.

    Just one Mexican alone killed at least 16 Americans and eluded authorities by going back and forth from the unprotected Mexican border. Which is the bigger threat? There were worse illegal Mexican serial killers in the US but they mainly concentrated on Mexican and Central American nationals living in the US.

    Illegals are an important voter base for the Dems, that's why.

    The situation at the capital is all a political hoax; protection against those mythical white supremacists that cause so much trouble in legend but few have ever identified in reality.

    California is dumb enough to allow 1 year olds and prisoners to collect 11 billion dollars of fraud unemployment, they're not competent enough to be doing mail in ballots

    We have gotta protect the Capitol from the violent fascists that permeate the right wing.

    Because violent Trump supporters have already tried to overthrow the government once already.

    I tried explaining that to them. The actual reason doesn't fit their world view so they can't accept it.

    Well, they can’t spell in thread titles, so you can’t expect them to understand reason.

    A series of no-shows for Q

    Before March 4, the QAnon follower's calendar was marked with dates that had been hailed as moments of reckoning but didn't happen.

    In 2017, the first "Q drop" - the cryptic messages from the anonymous "Q" figure behind the movement - claimed that former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton would soon be arrested, based on an unfounded allegation that she was involved in child sex trafficking. This, of course, never happened, but the QAnon conspiracy theory was born.

    Devotees of the conspiracy theory eagerly anticipated the release of the Mueller report in 2019, expecting its findings to lead to the arrest and possibly the execution of leading Democrats. Once again, QAnon believers were disappointed.

    Then, in a bid to reconcile their belief that Trump would remain president, they believed that January 6, the date of the deadly insurrection at the US Capitol, was a precursor to "the storm," a violent event that would result in the execution of child-abusive elites.

    The goalpost was moved to January 20, when Trump would seize power before Biden could take his oath.

    But Trump was not inaugurated again on January 20. He left Washington, DC, to move to Florida. Some QAnon believers were left confused and crestfallen.

    Mental gymnastics ensued. Some QAnon influencers argued that Biden's inauguration had happened in a Hollywood studio and was therefore invalid; others claimed that Trump had sent signals in his final address indicating that he'd remain in office. These influencers promoted to their followers the idea that, somehow, their theory was not yet over.

    "QAnon is dealing with a very difficult cognitive-dissonance situation," Michael Barkun, a professor emeritus of political science at Syracuse University.

    Several top QAnon voices disavowed the March 4 conspiracy theory. These influencers have likely been attempting to keep their followers on board with the QAnon conspiracy theory despite its myriad disappointments, Backovic told Insider.

    A post on Wednesday on a QAnon Telegram channel with nearly 200,000 subscribers called the plan "BS" - though the same page had told its followers that the "new Republic" would begin on March 4.

    Another top conspiracy theorist told their 71,000 subscribers on Wednesday morning that a "Q drop" had contained a hint that the March 4 conspiracy theory was a false flag. "March 4 is a Trap," the post said.

    The latest disappointment has led to the introduction of new dates, with increasingly desperate explanations.

    Some QAnon influencers have suggested that March 20 is when Trump will seize control. It appears to be a misinterpretation of the Presidential Transition Enhancement Act of 2019, which provides certain transition-related services to an administration up to 60 days after the inauguration.

    The claim, first made on a popular QAnon Telegram channel, appeared to be gaining ground with supporters offline too. A QAnon supporter told The Washington Post's Dave Weigel over the weekend that he believes that Trump remains in command of the military and will be inaugurated on March 20.


    Dave Weigel@daveweigel

    Met Ken, who informed me that Trump is still in command of the military, and Trump will be inaugurated again on March 20. (Biden is acting as president as a ruse while the Pope and others are rounded up.)

    https://twitter.com/daveweigel/statu...05390920966149

    If Ken said it........ it MUST be ****ing true Mark you calendars!!!!

    In another Telegram message board for QAnon believers, one post encouraged people to remain open-minded about Q's plan. "Dates for late March, April, May, and more dates in the fall have been tossed out there," the post said. "While we can speculate and hope, no specific dates have been landed on… don't get caught up in the dates, watch what's happening."

    Others are simply set on a resounding victory for Trump in 2024.

    "Whether it's some date in March or whether ultimately it will be a second Trump term after an election in 2024," Barkun told Insider, "there will be some further set of explanations and a further set of dates."

    The cycle continues.

    So funny that Board Dems here believe this shit. Believe that the country is in danger with wrong prediction, after wrong prediction by Q.

    No.... they're the ones who believe the shit that Qanon is spewing. March 4th passes, nothing happened, so we better keep the razor wire fence up and keep the guardsman another 2mos.

    Don't forget, "Ken" said March 20th is the new date now and when that date passes, you guys will say the Capitol is still in danger.
