Hi all, just a note. Today is my 24th wedding anniversary and tomorrow will be my 2nd anniversary of going after QAnon, so I’m in a mood.
On August 2nd, 2020, I tweeted that I felt I had a responsibility to expose QAnon because it was using techniques I helped invent. Every day — literally every day — since then I have tried to live up to that promise.
The investigation took me into places I could have never imagined could exist. And it brought me face to face with some of the worst people in the world.
I have written well over two million words in two years. 45,000 tweets, 10 Medium articles, 600+ Substack posts, countless FBI reports and had thousands of private conversations. I have broken numerous stories and helped many people understand what’s happening around them.
I predicted the insurrection and warned people not to go to 1/6. I started a volunteer group to help victims of QAnon and worked with 60 Minutes on their story about them.
All of this has made me a massive target. In some ways that has been very useful — to find out who is authentic and who isn’t. In other ways, it has just been horrific and traumatic.
I am not going to stop doing my work until I feel sure that my grandkids are going to grow up in a free country. And I’m done with the attacks. I will legally go after anyone who continues to prevent me, my friends and my projects from doing our work.
Coincidentally, I reached 2,000 subscribers today. This IS a MindWar, for the preservation of our democracy, and I’m going to keep fighting until we win it or I am dead and buried.
Friends, please, suit the fuck up. 🇺🇸🏴☠️
You are a warrior!!!
Happy Anniversary, Jim!
