Walmart, Amazon among donors to QAnon-promoting lawmaker
2020-09-20
[FreeBeacon] Walmart, Amazon and other corporate giants donated money to the reelection campaign of a Tennessee state lawmaker who had used social media to amplify and promote the QAnon conspiracy theory, according to an Associated Press review of campaign finance records and the candidate’s posts.

The corporate support for a QAnon-promoting politician is another example of how the conspiracy theory has penetrated mainstream politics, spreading beyond its origins on internet message boards popular with right-wing extremists.

Dozens of QAnon-promoting candidates have run for federal or state offices during this election cycle. Collectively, they have raised millions of dollars from thousands of donors. Individually, however, most of them have run poorly financed campaigns with little or no corporate or party backing. Unlike state Rep. Susan Lynn, who chairs the Tennessee House finance committee, few are incumbents who can attract corporate PAC money.

Scrolling down to watsit.

QAnon centers on the baseless belief that President Donald Trump is waging a secret campaign against enemies in the "deep state" and a child sex trafficking ring run by satanic pedophiles and cannibals. Trump has praised QAnon supporters and often retweets accounts that promote the conspiracy theory.

#3  More "conspiracy theories" per these lying shits:

Soros is trying to destroy law enforcement by spending absurd sums to elect hundreds of pro-criminal DAs around the country -- true

Top FBI officials falsified evidence, paid a Hilary operative who is a foreign agent to manufacture absurd lies, enlisted other foreign agents to spy on US persons, lied repeatedly in their affidavits to the FISA court in order to spy on other US persons, fed false stories to the media whose reports were then recycled and used as yet more bogus non-evidence of phony "collision," then supported a preposterous 3-year with hunt involving millions of dollars and hundreds of subpoenas that ended in a finding of zero collusion or conspiracy -- and then destroyed evidence of their own conspiracy -- all true...

If anyone ever asks what psychological projection means, direct them to these assholes' "collusion" and "conspiracy" charges. Literally everything they accuse Trump of, they've done themselves.

#2  I like how the pea-brains in the media have defined QAnon as "a conspiracy theory." Yeah. And the world banking system is a wallet...

Conspiracy theory is it? They're certainly "waging" a campaign against the Orange Man.

AP sez it's "baseless." Well, ok then I guess. Should we just move along now ?
