New Hampshire U. S. Senate candidate Andy Martin says that the QAnon movement is spreading widely while leaving few visible signs of its presence; the Republican Party is watching and waiting



Andy will hold a special news conference in Manchester, NH Saturday, July 25th to disclose who he believes is “Q” and also to take the digital soldier pledge.

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE:

(MANCHESTER, NH) (July 22, 2020)  

Dear Granite State Voter:

The QAnon movement is largely a mystery. Except that it is not. The Republican Party has been challenged by QAnon supporters. QAnon believers are clearly becoming part of the party “base,” but they are not acknowledged as a movement within the GOP.

The liberal media have taken notice. The New York Times ran an extensively-researched article. (Please see Link [1] below.) The Atlantic conducted an extensive investigation. (Please see Link [2} below.) And after a congressional candidate in Colorado toppled an incumbent, the QAnon link was noted. (Please see link [3] below.)

Liberal media call QAnon a “conspiracy theory.” In part it is. But it is also a rapidly organizing movement that could form the initial citizens’ resistance to the Democrats if President Trump is defeated for reelection.

While QAnon is not a conspiracy theory – it is much to elaborate and complex to be a simple theory – it is a coherent belief system. Belief systems have at least three levels. First, they usually have a factual basis for the beliefs. Second, there is conjecture and speculation surrounding the beliefs. Finally, there are myths that grow around and provide s surrounding layer for the facts and conjectures.

Republicans are of two minds. President Trump has retweeted QAnon postings. But QAnon-themed clothing is not allowed at his rallies. (Please see Link [4] below.)

I don’t think the Republican Party nationally has an official position on QAnon, but as congressional candidates win primaries and appear on the ballot, there is increasing media scrutiny.

QAnon involves a series of interlocking facts and conjectures, including the existence of the “Deep State” and an international pedophile ring among other allegations. QAnon is drawing international attention. Hollywood is under attack.(Please see link [6] below.)

And there is also an element of hokey, Boy Scouterism involved. Recently “Q” issued a “digital solder oath.” Candidates have taken the oath and General Michael Flynn recently “took the
oath” as well.

Because of my decades-long investigative background, and my exposure of Barack Obama’s lies, I am constantly asked, “Who is Q?” In a very loose sense, QAnon can be seen as an inevitable outgrowth of the Obama campaign and Obama’s enduring legacy. There were masses of “conspiracy theories” about Obama. Most were untrue. But some were true. I never published a false fact about Obama. Indeed, it was my fact-based investigation of the Illinois state senator, whom I first encountered in Springfield, that irritated him the most. He could not dismiss me as, of course, a “conspiracy theorist.”

When I began investigating Obama in 2004 almost nothing was known about the man. I issued a prophetic proclamation in August, 2004 exposing his lies. (Please see link [5] below.) My investigative work became the Rosetta Stone for other authors who looked into Obama’s murky truths. And so, the fact that QAnon evenly morphed out of the anti-Obama movement does not surprise me.

To be clear, I do not deal in or traffic in conspiracy theories. I am not a supporter of QAnon, although the digital soldier oath may be a different matter. But I have been exceptionally successful over the decades in separating fact from fiction, and I am doing a deep dive into QAnon. There are facts behind the QAnon movement and there is an underlying basis for the adherents to Q. But there are other aspects of the movement that are not fact-based. I will do my best to separate fact from fiction.

My current primary is bizarre. One of my primary opponents manifests unstable and irrational behavior. The other one is a phony and crook. So, I could end up as the Republican nominee for the U. S. Senate. Would I be a QAnon supporter? You’ll have to wait and see.

We have a follow-up event scheduled for this coming Saturday in Manchester. Stay tuned.

Sincerely,

Andy
