By Brett Forrest Close Brett Forrest Updated Jan. 9, 2021 2:56 pm ET The conspiracy-theory group known as QAnon has grown in popularity in recent months. It has spread from fringe internet message boards to mainstream platforms and has become a political issue, and on Jan. 6, its adherents were among the most prominent members of the mob of President Trump’s supporters who stormed the U.S. Capitol in Washington.
Who is “Q”? Followers believe that “Q” is a high-ranking government insider, presumably with a military or intelligence background, committed to exposing the hidden truth of what they see as an international bureaucracy scheming against Mr. Trump and his supporters. Some followers believe that “Q” often sends coded signals about his or her existence, using the number 17—the letter Q’s placement in the alphabet.
Who is Jake Angeli ? QAnon adherent Jacob Anthony Chansley, also known as Jake Angeli, was among the most visible members of the throng that breached the Capitol, reaching the Senate chamber and briefly occupying the seat just vacated by Vice President Mike Pence, according to photographs taken at the scene. Mr. Chansley was shirtless and wearing his trademark fur hat and bison horns, his tattoos on prominent display.
Mr. Chansley was arrested on Jan. 9 on federal charges connected to breaking into the Capitol building. The Capitol Police investigator noted in court documents that after viewing news-media photographs of the attack on the Capitol, he identified Mr. Chansley in part based on his “unique attire and extensive tattoos.”
How popular is QAnon? A new analysis finds that groups perpetuating QAnon conspiracy theory have increased in popularity on Facebook and Instagram since the start of the coronavirus pandemic as more people have spent more time at home and in front of screens. One Facebook group known as “QAnon News & Updates-Intel drops, breadcrumbs, & the war against the Cabal” increased its membership by more than 10 times from Jan. 1 to Aug. 1 of this year.
Facebook also said that it expects renewed attempts to evade detection and that it could update its content policies as needed.

Conspiracy theorists don’t believe information from anyone, unless it comes from another conspiracy theorists. They want conspiracy,.. makes them feel like they know stuff.
Theory? Why do I see PANIC IN DC? The storm is here bitches!
Except that they’re not Trump supporters.
You know what would be wonderful? For all media stop reprinting, reposting, retweeting videos, statements and interviews of all those supporting trump, along with the lies and conspiracy theories being touted by them. Why - because repeatedly sharing makes all believable. THINK
