More Proud Boys and Oat Squeezers go on trial soon to judge previous guy's puny, Peyronie's putsch.

Trump is after all impervious to using stunts to divert attention or copies of Forbes 400 to impress porn stars. And then there’s his ‘psychic friends’ explanation for declassifying government documents by using the intercessory force of his ego.

Judge Cannon claims that Donald “Orange Jesus” Trump is stigmatized. and German legislator Friedrich Merz makes Saturday QAnon prediction day, only making us wonder where Mike Lindell is, maybe Munich rather than Mankato.

German lawmaker Friedrich Merz speaking to the Bundestag about the Russian invasion of Ukraine in February. In his speech, Merz misspeaks and says that everyone will remember where they were on September 24, rather than February 24, the day Russia invaded. Merz corrected himself in the official record of the Bundestag, but QAnon followers in Germany believed they’d spotted Merz revealing a detail of a secret plan. Without any extra information, however, QAnon followers were at a loss about what exactly was going to happen on the date in question. Soon, some intrepid researchers came up with a theory based on a single episode of The Simpsons. One member of a German Telegram channel pointed out that in episode 9 of Season 24 (9/24, Sept. 24, get it?) of the animated sitcom, the plot revolves around a group of preppers. In particular, the characters discuss WROL, or Without Rule of Law, which is doomsday-prepper lingo for the complete breakdown of society after a major catastrophe. The episode also features an electromagnetic pulse device, which QAnon followers believe will usher in “10 days of darkness” and ultimately the return of former President Donald Trump to the Oval Office. [...] Supporters are increasingly convinced their predictions will soon come true, buoyed by Trump’s seeming support for QAnon and recent events they cite as evidence of something happening, like the FBI’s search of Mar-a-Lago and Queen Elizabeth’s death. But the building frustration has fueled violence. “Many in the QAnon scene are frustrated that the secret plan they so desired has not yet been seen in reality,” Josef Holnburger, co-director of CeMAS, a think tank specializing in conspiracy ideology and right-wing extremism, told VICE News. In the U.S. alone there has been a noticeable uptick in violent activity linked to QAnon conspiracies in recent weeks. Last week, a man in Michigan shot and killed his wife and shot and injured his daughter after being radicalized by QAnon conspiracies. In Pennsylvania, an armed man who had shared QAnon videos on Facebook entered a Dairy Queen shop and threatened to “kill all Democrats.” “Some individuals are therefore taking the plan into their own hands and threatening those they identify as enemies with death,” said Holnburger. www.vice.com/...

x .⁦@juliettekayyem⁩ has it exactly right. Trump's embrace of QAnon reflects his desperation in the face of legal threats and his political weakness. It evinces his decompensation, and portends his inevitable self-destruction. https://t.co/7oMcASAnYc — George Conway🌻 (@gtconway3d) September 21, 2022

x It seems like MAGAts don’t realize that Hunter Biden has been under investigation by a Trump/Barr prosecutor for three years now and no charges have been filed. If they’re mad he hasn’t been indicted, tell them to take it up with trump and Barr. — Mueller, She Wrote (@MuellerSheWrote) September 20, 2022

x "Because you're sending it to Mar a Lago or... wherever you're sending it..."



He just confessed to either having more classified material hidden at his other properties, or sending it to foreign countries.



There is no Door #3. Arrest him this fucking second. https://t.co/l4g560mqGL — Patrick S. Tomlinson (@stealthygeek) September 22, 2022

One thing is certain: The 2020 race was not stolen. But Mr. Trump and his Republican enablers have been working to rig future elections to their advantage. (Of course it’s the people shrieking most loudly about fraud that you really need to watch.) The former president has convinced his followers that the electoral system has been so corrupted that the only way to save America is for MAGA patriots to take over the system to ensure that the “right” candidates win going forward. His allies have been busy engineering such a legal takeover, and key pieces of the plan are already in place. www.nytimes.com/...
