The Illinois Republican called on leaders of both parties to stand up against far-right wing conspiracy theories that have circulated in recent days

Rep. Adam Kinzinger on Sunday emphasized the importance of President Donald Trump and other leaders calling out QAnon — a set of far-right conspiracy theories that allege the existence of a “deep state” against Trump.explaining QAnon on Sunday morning, said it’s time for other lawmakers to definitively and emphatically denounce the theories.

“I think up to maybe about a week ago there wasn’t a reason to denounce it because it didn’t need the attention, but now that it's made mainstream — we have a candidate that embraces it that won a primary,” he said. In a briefing last week, Trump sidestepped a question about Greene’s support for QAnon. Kinzinger said it’s time for the president and leading lawmakers to disavow it.

“The president hasn’t fully denounced it or denounced it at all,” he said. “Now it's time for leaders to come out and denounce it.” He added that it’s not a partisan issue, and that both Democrats and Republicans “have to denounce extremism in their own party because that’s where it's effective.”

It's not a problem coming from both parties though....

Sorry, pal. The GOP owns this Q crap. And you know it, RepKinzinger

There is NO separation between QAnon and the GOP CONservative RepubliCONs, none, they are one in the same.

Qanons come with reports and want you to make up your own mind. What is wrong with that?

Liberal from Texas: IdisavowQAnon

No democrat has ever stood up against any of their conspiracy theories and many are still crying Russia, Russia, Russia even after one of their own will be going to jail for his part in the coup attempt. More to follow.

RepKinzinger is an independent thinking voice of reason. We truly need to disavow QNON and totally unequivocally disavow RealDonaldtrump. 🖕Trump and 🖕🖕QNON.

QAnon 😂. You people really are desperate.

You are obviously backing a sinking leftists ship Politico.... you hardly get any likes... BACK TRUMP and your ratings might change...

Dividing line or media tactic?

Democrat party most destructive group in America!

HNTurtledove He’ll be Q Qancelled

It only fuels hate and prejudice and can easily turn into violence. Truth

MattMackowiak Lol. The GOP is all about far-right conspiracy theories. They’re an embarrassment

A Republican with a clue?

Sure. Do antifa next.

HNTurtledove I suspect Rep. Kinzinger might be that surprise GOP speaker coming to the Democrat Convention on Monday.

THIS is who they want Americans to be scared of? This is supposed to be our big concern - Qanon? Hookay, buddy.

While the leftist freaks push the USPS conspiracy theory

The modern day Joseph Birch Society.

HNTurtledove not gonna happen, but nice sentiment

You'll be getting excommunicated very shortly

HNTurtledove Yet more political theater from Republicans. I'll believe it when they do something besides talk.

“When I was young, I used to watch TV. Mom said do your homework or son you’ll get a D. I used to tell her no, not until I finish the show. That’s exactly what I did. I became a Video Kid”

So, One Republican politician out of how many thousand across the country? Next thing they'll speak up against Nazis & White Nationalists. Who am I kidding?

Guys should’ve done something sooner. That cult won’t be going anywhere until the FBI fully dismantles it and arrests its Wizard of Oz-like Messiah

HNTurtledove Don't count on it. They are scraping the bottom of the barrel. In 2022 the gods only know who they'll support. Likely go directly to prisons and asylums for the next batch of candidates.

This ought to be interesting.

Well, I AM shocked. A republican that does the right thing. Good on him. One party DOES stand up against right wing conspiracy theories already. It shouldn't be hard to agree that these do nothing but muddy the waters, bring hatred and suck oxygen out of the room. Let's stop now.

Oh so now you want to stand up?

About time. Dictatorship in the making needs to be stopped.

'both parties'

FakeNewsMediaClowns spreading lies again. We are not a conspiracy or a theory. We are researchers. We do not condone violence or rioting or looting or none of that BS. Why are you so scared of us researchers? Because we find the truth and dont cover for the corruption like msm.

QAnon is a group full of total wackos.

Sure but how many of them can actually define what QAnon is? What this stupid made up right wing nonsense with fat losers eating pizza in their mom’s basement really means. Challenge anyone for a better definition. RachelBitecofer GOP realDonaldTrump foxnews WhiteHouse 😂😂

Yet the President himself sings their praises smfh

Rep Kinzinger should be careful. He might be added to the fake list of people included in Epstein’s flight logs. 🦇💩

Someone linked to Shadow Government? People getting to close for comfort?🧐 When they use Code like Far-Right - it is a Psyop to influence readers

Very fine people

People of the United States. Stay away from the Qool-Aid.

Too late, the Q’s have a file on you

Its a national mental health issue. If politicians can't come up with a cohesive plan to deal with a simple physical virus, or even to agree it's a problem, how can they deal with an epidemic of paranoid delusion? What's the proposal?

Kissinger is one of them. Vote the punk out.

RepKinzinger ReelectTrump123 The only concern you need express, Kinzinger, is Trump and his GOP lackeys, who hope to welcome QAnon candidate Marjorie Taylor Greene to the fold. Check her out, I hear Greene serves Comet Ping Pong Pizza at her Meet and Greets.

Past time

America, RISE UP! Vote & pledge allegiance to our Flag🇺🇸 of the USA & to its Republic/People for which it stands for; one nation, under God, indivisible, with liberty & justice for all.🦅- VOTE GOP/RNC/DJT! 4MorYrs-K🇺🇸G-Protect US from Socialism.

I’m not a republican but this is one that is honest and decent. I don’t always agree with what he says but he is one of the few that hasn’t given his cajones to Trump

DemocratsUp Um, leaders of both parties? Republicans are the ones with the conspiracy theorists.

Agree💯
