Two tweets from Seth Abramson.

The first refers to the video in this tweet from Millenial Politics in early 2018:

MUST WATCH: Unearthed video shows Michael Flynn bragging about being the “General of an army of digital soldiers waging an insurgency of irregular warfare”. RT!

I wonder if folks realize that the top suspects for ringleaders of the dangerous QAnon movement are Erik Prince, Michael Flynn, Roger Stone, Donald Trump Jr., and Rudy Giuliani. We certainly know they pushed now-QAnon-linked theories *pre-election*. And so this video...good Lord.

PS/ The story of Prince, Flynn, Don Jr., and Giuliani—with the aid of Trump lawyer Joe diGenova—pushing Russian disinformation pre-election as part of a cyberwarfare campaign *against Americans* that we now call "QAnon" is old enough that it's in my 2018 book, Proof of Collusion.

1. Or it could just be a clown in his basement

Pretending to be something he's not.

2. Daily Beast article from a few days ago on how much Flynn encourages the QAnon cult:

https://www.thedailybeast.com/michael-flynn-finally-embraces-his-qanon-cult-following



And yesterday Flynn posted a tweet in which he and his family take the oath of allegiance the QAnon cultists have been taking online, and he added the QAnon slogan "Where we go one, we go all" at the end of the oath.

4. It is clearly in his best interest to do so

The more he encourages talk of the big scary deep state, the more he looks like a victim instead of a criminal.

3. Dem ads need to link these names, with 'QAnon', specific deeds - loudly with trump.

[NoRoadUntravelled]

9. Excellent Idea!

[OMGWTF]

12. And remind the fidiots that "Antifa" means anti-Fascism and that it's not a real organization.

[Lock him up.]

14. The fringe of cRackpots who follow them will never change.

No need to give them more free publicity.

5. Is this something the Lincoln Project can tackle?

Because I don't think the Dems are gonna touch it with a 10-foot pole, at least not head-on.

[highplainsdem]

10. They couldn't tackle QAnon in any TV ad. Too bizarre, too complicated, and

too unfamiliar to too many people they want to reach.

Maybe a much longer video on YouTube could begin to deal with this...but of course the ringleaders will deny any role in QAnon, possibly even threaten to sue.

There are better things for the Lincoln Project to focus their talents on.

QAnon can be explained and discredited best in print, I think, by outlets like the Daily Beast.

15. I've been reading and learning about QAnon and I

totally think they need to be outed and exposed without question! I think if anybody could do it The Lincoln Project could.

[soldierant]

19. Exactly because it is so complicated

is why I feel it needs to be done via video. The people people who need to learn about it most don't read, or can't read, or both.

And yes, it's too complex for a normal length ad.

Infomercial? Advermentary? (OK, I made that one up.)

6. Flynn's army of digital soldiers is housed in a building in St Petersburg, Russia. . . . nt

[Takket]

7. Flynn is a HUGE name in Q-anon circles........

they are obsessed with his "mistreatment" by DOJ and his freedom is one of their top "objectives". So this makes sense to me.....

[malaise]

8. The real fun part of this

will be finding out who leaked this.

These are the coup leaders!!

[Andy823]

11. It couldn't be Giuliani

he could never stay sober enough to be the leader!

[dflprincess]

13. I agree it's not Giuliani

and I doubt it's Junior. Neither on of them could keep it a secret.

[SergeStorms]

17. And Jr.'s not smart enough.

He was too busy cheating on his wife at the time as well.

[zentrum]

16. Hope this is provable.

Soon.

18. Quintet QAnon indeed.
