Last week, Jerome Corsi, a right-wing “journalist” for the conspiracy theory website Infowars, appeared on "Lionel Nation" to discuss his efforts to decode the cryptic postings of an anonymous internet user known only as "Q" and their supposed relevance to the coming "storm."
As we have noted before, Corsi, who was behind the bogus "Swift Boat" attacks on John Kerry and the equally bogus birther attacks on Barack Obama, has recently become obsessed with "The Storm," a fringe right-wing conspiracy theory alleging that the special counsel investigation into Russian interference in the 2016 presidential election is really a cover for President Trump's efforts to take down thousands of corrupt political, business and entertainment leaders who are part of a massive satanic pedophile ring.
Those who traffic in this conspiracy theory rely almost entirely on 8chan forum board posts penned by a figure known only as "Q," whom they believe is actually a high-ranking official within the Trump administration—or possibly even Trump himself. The cryptic warnings and messages posted by Q, Corsi stated, are designed to prepare Americans for the horrible truth that is soon to be revealed once Trump unleashes a wave of arrests.
"This is the beginning of the end for the Clintons," Corsi said, citing Q's posts asserting that member of Hillary Clinton's campaign "were engaged in human sacrifices [and] trafficking," as alleged in the "Pizzagate" conspiracy theory.
"I've been warning people," Corsi said, "when this next round comes, we're going to get released things—I've seen the very beginning of it—that the normal person shouldn't watch. Because we're going to be seeing these global elites, I mean, do you really want to watch films of innocent children pleading for their lives while people are butchering them?"
