1 00:00:00,600 --> 00:00:04,480 Speaker 1: Q and On is the world's largest online political conspiracy movement. 2 00:00:05,160 --> 00:00:08,080 Speaker 1: Followers believe someone code named Q is provided them with 3 00:00:08,119 --> 00:00:11,840 Speaker 1: secret information from inside the White House. No one really 4 00:00:11,840 --> 00:00:14,720 Speaker 1: knows the real identity of Q, though we aim to 5 00:00:14,840 --> 00:00:19,800 Speaker 1: change that. I'm Jake Hanrahan and this is Q Clearance 6 00:00:20,280 --> 00:00:23,759 Speaker 1: podcast series aimed at unmasking the true identity of Q. 7 00:00:25,160 --> 00:00:27,720 Speaker 1: This is brought to you by IR Radio and Q 8 00:00:27,920 --> 00:00:32,800 Speaker 1: Dayta Media. In this episode, episode three, which is a 9 00:00:32,800 --> 00:00:35,280 Speaker 1: bit of a two potter, we're going to be looking 10 00:00:35,360 --> 00:00:38,040 Speaker 1: at q and On's initial birth on for chan and 11 00:00:38,040 --> 00:00:41,120 Speaker 1: how things began to change once he moved to a Chan. 12 00:00:45,479 --> 00:00:47,840 Speaker 1: We're gonna have to go back and forth a little 13 00:00:47,880 --> 00:00:49,760 Speaker 1: bit for this to all makes sense, but trust me 14 00:00:49,800 --> 00:00:52,360 Speaker 1: on this. It will set up the much needed groundwork 15 00:00:52,800 --> 00:00:58,600 Speaker 1: for later episodes and revelations. So let's go back again 16 00:00:58,680 --> 00:01:02,440 Speaker 1: to October twenty ev team. Remember that's when Q posted 17 00:01:02,480 --> 00:01:05,959 Speaker 1: his first ever drop on four Chan. Along with the 18 00:01:05,959 --> 00:01:08,880 Speaker 1: one saying Hillary Clinton would soon be arrested, which we've 19 00:01:08,880 --> 00:01:12,240 Speaker 1: already mentioned in previous episodes, there was this bit of 20 00:01:12,280 --> 00:01:18,000 Speaker 1: information quote HRC extradition already in motion effective yesterday with 21 00:01:18,080 --> 00:01:21,960 Speaker 1: several countries in case of cross border run passport proved 22 00:01:22,000 --> 00:01:25,760 Speaker 1: to be flagged effective ten slash thirty at twelve oh one, 23 00:01:25,880 --> 00:01:30,039 Speaker 1: A M expect massive rights organized in defiance and other 24 00:01:30,120 --> 00:01:33,240 Speaker 1: fleeing the US to occur. U s m S will 25 00:01:33,280 --> 00:01:38,360 Speaker 1: conduct the operation while energy activated. Proof check, locate an 26 00:01:38,440 --> 00:01:41,720 Speaker 1: MG member and ask if activated for duty. Ten slash 27 00:01:41,800 --> 00:01:46,840 Speaker 1: thirty across most major cities. End quote. Another one of 28 00:01:46,880 --> 00:01:50,560 Speaker 1: the first drops attributed to Q Reid's quote, potus will 29 00:01:50,600 --> 00:01:54,240 Speaker 1: not go on TV to address the nation, and potus 30 00:01:54,280 --> 00:01:57,320 Speaker 1: knew removing criminal rogue elements as the first step was 31 00:01:57,400 --> 00:02:03,080 Speaker 1: essential to free and pass legislation. End quote. Now before 32 00:02:03,080 --> 00:02:05,480 Speaker 1: we dive into y, Q and A migrated to h 33 00:02:05,640 --> 00:02:08,840 Speaker 1: N after those initial posts got traction. I just want 34 00:02:08,840 --> 00:02:11,000 Speaker 1: to skip forward a minute to look at a recent 35 00:02:11,080 --> 00:02:14,960 Speaker 1: QUE drop. The content isn't exactly important, but let's just 36 00:02:15,040 --> 00:02:18,160 Speaker 1: compare the original que drops. I just read to this 37 00:02:18,200 --> 00:02:22,120 Speaker 1: one that was published this month on October seven, Q 38 00:02:22,680 --> 00:02:25,600 Speaker 1: quote do you remember when the media had wall to 39 00:02:25,639 --> 00:02:29,480 Speaker 1: wall living fear coverage re n K? Do you remember 40 00:02:29,480 --> 00:02:33,880 Speaker 1: when Hawaii accidentally sounded the incoming missile alarm? What happened? 41 00:02:34,280 --> 00:02:38,160 Speaker 1: NK no longer a nuclear threat? Mounting collapse China seeking 42 00:02:38,360 --> 00:02:44,079 Speaker 1: NK commitments of fire short long range ballistic missiles pre election. 43 00:02:44,880 --> 00:02:49,960 Speaker 1: Q end quote. Now, maybe I'm just not enlightened enough 44 00:02:50,000 --> 00:02:52,720 Speaker 1: to understand what qu is talking about fully here, but 45 00:02:52,880 --> 00:02:55,840 Speaker 1: one thing I think is obvious is the change of 46 00:02:56,200 --> 00:02:59,800 Speaker 1: writing style. In the first drops, Que was on points, 47 00:03:00,000 --> 00:03:02,400 Speaker 1: certain of what was about to happen. As you heard, 48 00:03:02,440 --> 00:03:06,720 Speaker 1: he made failed predictions with dates, times, everything. Now he 49 00:03:06,840 --> 00:03:10,760 Speaker 1: spews these vague, do it yourself jigsaw statements that often 50 00:03:10,840 --> 00:03:14,040 Speaker 1: have no relevance to what's actually going on week to week. 51 00:03:15,120 --> 00:03:17,200 Speaker 1: Q and on has been growing and growing now for 52 00:03:17,280 --> 00:03:20,120 Speaker 1: three years, so it's of course possible that he just 53 00:03:20,240 --> 00:03:24,359 Speaker 1: eased into his position, got comfortable, refined his language. It's 54 00:03:24,400 --> 00:03:27,200 Speaker 1: also quite possible, though, that someone else took o overt 55 00:03:27,240 --> 00:03:31,120 Speaker 1: and change the writing style. Anyway, keep that in your 56 00:03:31,120 --> 00:03:36,520 Speaker 1: mind as we go forward. So Q and on posts 57 00:03:36,560 --> 00:03:39,080 Speaker 1: originally sprung up in a thread on one of four 58 00:03:39,160 --> 00:03:44,280 Speaker 1: chan's political boards known as Pole or the Politically Incorrect Board, 59 00:03:44,320 --> 00:03:49,760 Speaker 1: which is overwhelmingly populated with neo Nazis, white nationalists, and 60 00:03:50,000 --> 00:03:54,680 Speaker 1: various other stripes of fascist ideology. To read poll frankly 61 00:03:54,840 --> 00:03:58,200 Speaker 1: is to rot your brain, so naturally that's where The 62 00:03:58,240 --> 00:04:01,960 Speaker 1: first que post appeared as replies in a thread titled 63 00:04:02,040 --> 00:04:06,520 Speaker 1: Mula investigation. That thread was basically a comment on how 64 00:04:06,720 --> 00:04:10,120 Speaker 1: US right wing news pundits were smiling about the Munal 65 00:04:10,200 --> 00:04:15,840 Speaker 1: investigation rather than looking worried. The reaction from Pole users 66 00:04:15,960 --> 00:04:18,159 Speaker 1: to the que post back then was at first a 67 00:04:18,200 --> 00:04:22,240 Speaker 1: collective site, a sort of oh no, not this ship again. 68 00:04:22,800 --> 00:04:25,120 Speaker 1: That's because the essence of what Q and on does 69 00:04:25,279 --> 00:04:28,640 Speaker 1: is actually nothing new. It's just the most successful version 70 00:04:28,680 --> 00:04:32,800 Speaker 1: of a genre of bullshit Internet hoaxes known as insider 71 00:04:32,839 --> 00:04:36,400 Speaker 1: and on. Travis view of the Q and on Anonymous 72 00:04:36,480 --> 00:04:40,240 Speaker 1: podcast explains this. What's really interesting about Q and on 73 00:04:40,480 --> 00:04:42,680 Speaker 1: is that this is part of a kind of tradition 74 00:04:42,920 --> 00:04:46,680 Speaker 1: or a kind of a genre of posts within the 75 00:04:46,880 --> 00:04:49,520 Speaker 1: within four champ. I mean, they're called they's called these 76 00:04:49,520 --> 00:04:54,040 Speaker 1: insider and nce, and very frequently someone would show up 77 00:04:54,080 --> 00:04:57,080 Speaker 1: to the poll board on four chat or whatever and 78 00:04:57,240 --> 00:05:00,480 Speaker 1: they would claim to be someone who's deep inside government. 79 00:05:00,480 --> 00:05:03,880 Speaker 1: They would uh, you know. One example, as before Q 80 00:05:04,080 --> 00:05:07,000 Speaker 1: and on is that there was someone called mega ann 81 00:05:07,240 --> 00:05:10,880 Speaker 1: who claimed to have insider information about mega upload and 82 00:05:11,040 --> 00:05:15,039 Speaker 1: its owner Kim dot com, or there was there in 83 00:05:15,080 --> 00:05:18,839 Speaker 1: two thousand sixteen, there's one called fbi ann who claimed 84 00:05:18,839 --> 00:05:24,520 Speaker 1: to have information about Hillary Clinton. Supposedly. They claim baselessly 85 00:05:24,600 --> 00:05:26,960 Speaker 1: that they have some kind of insider informations. There's something 86 00:05:27,000 --> 00:05:29,919 Speaker 1: that happens frequently. What makes Q and a unique is 87 00:05:29,960 --> 00:05:32,880 Speaker 1: that it's the first one that kind of like burst 88 00:05:32,960 --> 00:05:36,440 Speaker 1: out of the chance and into wider social networks. And 89 00:05:36,040 --> 00:05:39,280 Speaker 1: and eazy is even sort of referenced by the President. 90 00:05:39,920 --> 00:05:42,920 Speaker 1: This Q and on began to grow on Fortune topics 91 00:05:43,000 --> 00:05:46,440 Speaker 1: spread rapidly across Pole. They didn't have their own board 92 00:05:46,480 --> 00:05:48,880 Speaker 1: to post on, so they swam in the same stream 93 00:05:49,040 --> 00:05:52,120 Speaker 1: as the neo fascists. It's correct that Q and on 94 00:05:52,279 --> 00:05:55,200 Speaker 1: initially gained the following on Fortune, but as we know, 95 00:05:55,400 --> 00:05:58,200 Speaker 1: it later began to spill over into the world outside 96 00:05:58,200 --> 00:06:01,920 Speaker 1: of the Internet. People start attending pro Trump rallies with 97 00:06:02,000 --> 00:06:04,400 Speaker 1: Q and on placards and Q and on t shirts. 98 00:06:04,800 --> 00:06:08,280 Speaker 1: Facebook and YouTube were both flooded with Q content, and 99 00:06:08,520 --> 00:06:11,400 Speaker 1: one Florida SWAT officer was even seen with a Q 100 00:06:11,600 --> 00:06:15,080 Speaker 1: patch attached to his chest rig when meeting with the 101 00:06:15,200 --> 00:06:19,279 Speaker 1: Vice President Mike Pence. Q didn't remain simply the newest 102 00:06:19,279 --> 00:06:21,840 Speaker 1: strain of a four Chan insider and on for long. 103 00:06:22,440 --> 00:06:24,760 Speaker 1: In fact, they were only on four Chan for about 104 00:06:24,800 --> 00:06:28,000 Speaker 1: two months in before they had to find a new 105 00:06:28,040 --> 00:06:32,120 Speaker 1: place to nest. Now, despite this idea often to out 106 00:06:32,160 --> 00:06:34,720 Speaker 1: within the media that there are no rules on four Chan, 107 00:06:35,279 --> 00:06:38,120 Speaker 1: there actually are. That's not to say four Chan is 108 00:06:38,160 --> 00:06:40,840 Speaker 1: a good place that's well regulated or anything like that, 109 00:06:41,120 --> 00:06:44,719 Speaker 1: but there are some rules. Raiding other groups or websites, 110 00:06:44,800 --> 00:06:48,839 Speaker 1: for example, is prohibited. Q and On's constant pylon of 111 00:06:48,920 --> 00:06:52,440 Speaker 1: anyone against their movement effectively broke this rule for some 112 00:06:52,520 --> 00:06:56,560 Speaker 1: of the four Chan moderators. Frederick Brennan, the founder of 113 00:06:56,839 --> 00:06:59,680 Speaker 1: h Chan, claims that the q and ons were booted 114 00:06:59,720 --> 00:07:04,280 Speaker 1: from chann. Fortune is explicitly anti Q. The reason they 115 00:07:04,320 --> 00:07:07,200 Speaker 1: had to leave Fortune because it became a real world movement. 116 00:07:07,200 --> 00:07:10,480 Speaker 1: They got kicked off. You know, um here you canu 117 00:07:10,760 --> 00:07:13,840 Speaker 1: mora owner of Fortune is not running a superpack called 118 00:07:13,840 --> 00:07:18,160 Speaker 1: this on the deep state back you know, um he 119 00:07:18,160 --> 00:07:22,400 Speaker 1: he has done everything to try to get rid of Q. 120 00:07:22,800 --> 00:07:26,480 Speaker 1: You know that he is in his power. Yes, okay, 121 00:07:26,480 --> 00:07:31,200 Speaker 1: it did start unfortunate, but Fortune did everything to get 122 00:07:31,320 --> 00:07:33,200 Speaker 1: rid of it. Like they've done a better job than 123 00:07:33,240 --> 00:07:35,880 Speaker 1: Facebook and Twitter, you know, to get rid of Q 124 00:07:36,240 --> 00:07:39,640 Speaker 1: on their platform. Q is basically a nonentity on their 125 00:07:39,640 --> 00:07:43,160 Speaker 1: platform today. So the only time I found Q and 126 00:07:43,160 --> 00:07:46,280 Speaker 1: on mentioned recently on for Chune when doing research for 127 00:07:46,320 --> 00:07:50,160 Speaker 1: this episode was when people derided the movement or accused 128 00:07:50,160 --> 00:07:52,040 Speaker 1: someone of being a Q and on follower. If the 129 00:07:52,160 --> 00:07:56,080 Speaker 1: posts reflected that so effectively, Yeah, q and on is 130 00:07:56,120 --> 00:07:59,560 Speaker 1: still an aug topic on Fortune now. The Q and 131 00:07:59,640 --> 00:08:02,640 Speaker 1: On's generally refute that they were kicked off of Forchune. 132 00:08:03,000 --> 00:08:05,440 Speaker 1: They say they left after the password for the Q 133 00:08:05,600 --> 00:08:09,040 Speaker 1: account on four Chune was cracked and people began posting 134 00:08:09,080 --> 00:08:12,400 Speaker 1: all sorts of nonsense and jokes under the Q no Monica. 135 00:08:13,040 --> 00:08:16,360 Speaker 1: Q announced that four chan was compromised, and so they 136 00:08:16,400 --> 00:08:19,400 Speaker 1: surfed around for a new home. That's when they found 137 00:08:19,520 --> 00:08:25,080 Speaker 1: Frederick Brennan's h n in late aboard much easier to customize. 138 00:08:25,720 --> 00:08:29,000 Speaker 1: Let's say you're a four Chan user and a topic 139 00:08:29,120 --> 00:08:31,040 Speaker 1: comes up on four Chan and you all want to 140 00:08:31,080 --> 00:08:33,760 Speaker 1: go discuss it, right, you have to use one of 141 00:08:33,760 --> 00:08:37,360 Speaker 1: the existing boards that are there, like q for example, 142 00:08:37,800 --> 00:08:41,560 Speaker 1: they had to use the Politics board because there's no 143 00:08:41,679 --> 00:08:44,920 Speaker 1: way for them to get their own board. But h 144 00:08:45,000 --> 00:08:48,160 Speaker 1: Chan in the beginning, at least, you know, was self service. 145 00:08:48,640 --> 00:08:50,839 Speaker 1: You put in the name of the board you want, 146 00:08:51,559 --> 00:08:54,280 Speaker 1: you put in a user name, a password, and email, 147 00:08:54,880 --> 00:08:58,760 Speaker 1: and it's entirely kind of self service. I don't need 148 00:08:59,040 --> 00:09:02,439 Speaker 1: to do anything. Uh, you can just get set up 149 00:09:03,120 --> 00:09:06,760 Speaker 1: by yourself. Some of you might be sitting there thinking, well, 150 00:09:06,960 --> 00:09:10,640 Speaker 1: fuck this guy. He allowed you and on on his platform. Well, 151 00:09:10,880 --> 00:09:13,560 Speaker 1: like I said, he didn't exactly open the door to them. 152 00:09:13,720 --> 00:09:16,920 Speaker 1: It was already open. Anyone could join h chan and 153 00:09:16,920 --> 00:09:19,600 Speaker 1: create a board. You didn't need to ask permission, you 154 00:09:19,679 --> 00:09:22,480 Speaker 1: already had it. Q and On's had permission to be 155 00:09:22,559 --> 00:09:25,120 Speaker 1: there by the default of the ethos of the way 156 00:09:25,160 --> 00:09:27,960 Speaker 1: the site was run. I think it's fair to mention 157 00:09:28,000 --> 00:09:30,720 Speaker 1: here again as well, that Frederick Brennan did everything he 158 00:09:30,840 --> 00:09:34,280 Speaker 1: could to get h and shut down and raise awareness 159 00:09:34,320 --> 00:09:37,800 Speaker 1: about hoaxes like Q and on after he quit, when 160 00:09:37,960 --> 00:09:41,200 Speaker 1: his creation became a kind of Frankenstein's monster of what 161 00:09:41,280 --> 00:09:43,640 Speaker 1: it was intended to be. It was never a nice 162 00:09:43,679 --> 00:09:46,199 Speaker 1: place to be, but it wasn't intended to be this 163 00:09:46,360 --> 00:09:50,559 Speaker 1: springboard for deep deep Internet hoaxes like Q and On. 164 00:09:50,960 --> 00:09:53,960 Speaker 1: Some people find Brennan to be riding on an angry 165 00:09:54,040 --> 00:09:57,439 Speaker 1: vendetta against the Watkins family, the people who fucked him 166 00:09:57,440 --> 00:09:59,959 Speaker 1: over and became the new owners of h CHAN, which 167 00:10:00,160 --> 00:10:08,079 Speaker 1: we will get to in another episode. I've had people 168 00:10:08,120 --> 00:10:11,640 Speaker 1: tell me brendan stance against it all is disingenuous for 169 00:10:11,679 --> 00:10:15,520 Speaker 1: that reason. I mentioned this for transparency's sake, so you 170 00:10:15,559 --> 00:10:17,959 Speaker 1: can make your own mind up. But for what it's worth, 171 00:10:18,080 --> 00:10:20,959 Speaker 1: I disagree with the people who say that. I believe 172 00:10:20,960 --> 00:10:24,040 Speaker 1: what Brendan is saying, and in all the correspondence I've 173 00:10:24,080 --> 00:10:26,320 Speaker 1: had with him, he's been very straightforward about what he 174 00:10:26,440 --> 00:10:31,160 Speaker 1: does and doesn't know. So on Brendan's h n Q 175 00:10:31,400 --> 00:10:34,240 Speaker 1: and on really began to make its nest. They were 176 00:10:34,240 --> 00:10:37,040 Speaker 1: able to have their own board, which was created by 177 00:10:37,200 --> 00:10:41,800 Speaker 1: a man named Paul furber There's an excellent reply all 178 00:10:41,880 --> 00:10:45,640 Speaker 1: podcast episode mostly about this guy that you should definitely 179 00:10:45,720 --> 00:10:49,000 Speaker 1: check out. He has refused to speak to us as 180 00:10:49,000 --> 00:10:51,120 Speaker 1: he did with them, but we're going to go into 181 00:10:51,240 --> 00:10:54,559 Speaker 1: his role with in qun on anyway. So who is 182 00:10:54,600 --> 00:10:57,679 Speaker 1: Paul Furber? Well? On his Twitter account, where he has 183 00:10:57,720 --> 00:11:00,800 Speaker 1: more than twenty five thousand followers, he claims to be 184 00:11:00,960 --> 00:11:04,920 Speaker 1: a journalist, a programmer, an artist, a musician, a pilot, 185 00:11:04,960 --> 00:11:09,000 Speaker 1: a teacher, a luthia, a biker, a Christian, and a 186 00:11:09,120 --> 00:11:13,319 Speaker 1: medicine seller whatever that means. What further actually is is 187 00:11:13,360 --> 00:11:17,400 Speaker 1: a hardcore conspiracy theorist from South Africa that spreads some 188 00:11:17,480 --> 00:11:20,920 Speaker 1: of the most far fetched bullshit you've ever seen on 189 00:11:20,960 --> 00:11:24,840 Speaker 1: the Internet. Recently, for example, he was theorizing on Twitter 190 00:11:25,320 --> 00:11:28,120 Speaker 1: that Joe Biden had been replaced with a body double 191 00:11:28,600 --> 00:11:32,120 Speaker 1: or a clone. This guy is either insane, grift ing, 192 00:11:32,480 --> 00:11:35,560 Speaker 1: or a mix of the two. Personally, I think it's 193 00:11:35,600 --> 00:11:39,440 Speaker 1: the latter. Paul Furber also states in his bio on 194 00:11:39,480 --> 00:11:43,840 Speaker 1: Twitter that he was the owner of the cbt S board. 195 00:11:44,280 --> 00:11:47,760 Speaker 1: CBTs stands for Calm before the Storm, one of Q 196 00:11:47,920 --> 00:11:51,680 Speaker 1: and On's many slogans, the CBTs board was the one 197 00:11:51,760 --> 00:11:55,160 Speaker 1: created by Furber on the h chan board when Q 198 00:11:55,400 --> 00:11:59,360 Speaker 1: and ons migrated after being booted or leaving for Chan. 199 00:12:00,360 --> 00:12:04,360 Speaker 1: The exclusive reason for CBTs to even exist was for 200 00:12:04,400 --> 00:12:08,600 Speaker 1: all things Q and on. Soon Q posted on Fortune 201 00:12:09,040 --> 00:12:13,120 Speaker 1: saying that he's migrat into a chann. Q started posting 202 00:12:13,240 --> 00:12:16,840 Speaker 1: there on Furber's board, where they wouldn't all get chased 203 00:12:16,880 --> 00:12:19,960 Speaker 1: out by the mods like they did on Fortune. Now, 204 00:12:20,000 --> 00:12:22,280 Speaker 1: remember I spoke about the trip codes of the trip 205 00:12:22,320 --> 00:12:25,120 Speaker 1: code from four Channe was the same on h and 206 00:12:25,200 --> 00:12:29,000 Speaker 1: the trip code is what identifies the anonymous user. The 207 00:12:29,040 --> 00:12:32,240 Speaker 1: trip codes do change, they do get corracked. Well, speak 208 00:12:32,280 --> 00:12:35,560 Speaker 1: about that later on, But at this point people were 209 00:12:35,640 --> 00:12:39,479 Speaker 1: happy to believe that Q had moved from Fortune onto 210 00:12:39,640 --> 00:12:42,960 Speaker 1: a Chan. I spoke to Frank Brennan about Paul Furber's 211 00:12:43,040 --> 00:12:45,719 Speaker 1: role within Q and On at this point. There are 212 00:12:45,760 --> 00:12:49,280 Speaker 1: a lot of reasons to believe that Paul was one 213 00:12:49,320 --> 00:12:53,200 Speaker 1: of the people originally positing as QUE for sure, because 214 00:12:54,000 --> 00:12:57,439 Speaker 1: he has that same kind of writing style and that 215 00:12:57,640 --> 00:13:01,880 Speaker 1: same kind of vivid imagination, and so in the very beginning, 216 00:13:02,080 --> 00:13:05,040 Speaker 1: when there was no trip code, it was probably passed 217 00:13:05,120 --> 00:13:08,199 Speaker 1: between a few different people. It's really hard to say 218 00:13:08,600 --> 00:13:12,920 Speaker 1: how many people it was passed between. I definitely think 219 00:13:12,960 --> 00:13:16,320 Speaker 1: that he was always very involved in in Q. Yeah, 220 00:13:16,360 --> 00:13:20,000 Speaker 1: I mean, he definitely wanted to become famous of of Q, 221 00:13:20,679 --> 00:13:24,480 Speaker 1: and in some ways he did for a while. Further 222 00:13:24,640 --> 00:13:27,480 Speaker 1: became a sort of unofficial spokesman for the Q and 223 00:13:27,480 --> 00:13:30,880 Speaker 1: On movement. He was Que's biggest advocate at the time. 224 00:13:31,360 --> 00:13:33,960 Speaker 1: He'd got onto Info Wars to talk about the elusive 225 00:13:34,040 --> 00:13:36,920 Speaker 1: Q and On plan. He'd spend all day trying to 226 00:13:37,000 --> 00:13:39,720 Speaker 1: red pill anyone he could about Q, and he was 227 00:13:39,760 --> 00:13:42,560 Speaker 1: eventually looked to by many in the community as Que's 228 00:13:42,760 --> 00:13:46,120 Speaker 1: right hand man. After all, Furber was the owner of 229 00:13:46,120 --> 00:13:49,720 Speaker 1: the office where Q came to work the CBTs board 230 00:13:49,800 --> 00:13:52,880 Speaker 1: on h Chan. Furber was also the guy who would 231 00:13:52,960 --> 00:13:56,920 Speaker 1: verify that Q was in fact Q via the trip coats. 232 00:13:58,679 --> 00:14:01,360 Speaker 1: I think the pull furb was involved with Q from 233 00:14:01,360 --> 00:14:04,200 Speaker 1: the start on four chant, or at the very least, 234 00:14:04,240 --> 00:14:06,800 Speaker 1: he took control of Q as it migrated from four 235 00:14:06,920 --> 00:14:10,720 Speaker 1: chan to h chan. He began posting his cue, spreading 236 00:14:10,760 --> 00:14:14,160 Speaker 1: the same conspiracy theories he'd been screaming into the ether 237 00:14:14,280 --> 00:14:17,680 Speaker 1: online for years. Furber was wrapped up into the center 238 00:14:17,720 --> 00:14:20,600 Speaker 1: of the movement as it thrived on h Chan, and 239 00:14:20,640 --> 00:14:23,800 Speaker 1: as Frederick Brennan just said, it kind of made him famous. 240 00:14:23,880 --> 00:14:28,680 Speaker 1: At least within this strange conspiracy internet bubble. Furber was 241 00:14:28,800 --> 00:14:32,240 Speaker 1: completely and utterly on board with Q and on until 242 00:14:32,560 --> 00:14:36,760 Speaker 1: he says the account was hijacked and taken over by 243 00:14:36,840 --> 00:14:40,800 Speaker 1: somebody else. Furber has said that he thinks who ever 244 00:14:40,800 --> 00:14:45,320 Speaker 1: had it before this hijacking was genuinely leaking information from 245 00:14:45,360 --> 00:14:49,480 Speaker 1: intelligence from the US government. He now thinks afterwards, now 246 00:14:49,520 --> 00:14:53,800 Speaker 1: that it's hijacked, someone else is making fake information up. 247 00:14:54,840 --> 00:14:57,800 Speaker 1: I think that's a very interesting claim. Remember, if Furber 248 00:14:57,960 --> 00:15:01,560 Speaker 1: was behind this, he can't exactly claim it. If he says, yeah, 249 00:15:01,600 --> 00:15:08,160 Speaker 1: actually it was me, the whole life falls apart. Now 250 00:15:08,200 --> 00:15:11,000 Speaker 1: we're going to cover the hijacking in the next episode, 251 00:15:11,240 --> 00:15:13,640 Speaker 1: but just keep in mind Paul is one part of 252 00:15:13,640 --> 00:15:16,480 Speaker 1: the web of people that are possibly behind Q and On. 253 00:15:17,000 --> 00:15:19,720 Speaker 1: We haven't cracked the case yet, but certainly I think 254 00:15:20,000 --> 00:15:23,160 Speaker 1: this is a very good lead. Before we wrap this 255 00:15:23,200 --> 00:15:25,440 Speaker 1: episode up, I want to go over something I was 256 00:15:25,520 --> 00:15:29,640 Speaker 1: sent recently by another que researcher. It's a video by 257 00:15:29,720 --> 00:15:34,000 Speaker 1: a guy called Steve Pachenk. Other Q researchers I've spoken 258 00:15:34,040 --> 00:15:37,520 Speaker 1: to about this aren't particularly interested in it, but it 259 00:15:37,560 --> 00:15:40,000 Speaker 1: seems fishy to me on some level, as it did 260 00:15:40,040 --> 00:15:42,320 Speaker 1: to the guy who sent me it. Have a listen. 261 00:15:42,600 --> 00:15:46,880 Speaker 1: And November one, two thousand sixteen, Hillary and Bill Clinton 262 00:15:47,000 --> 00:15:53,920 Speaker 1: and their entourage of assistance affected a civilian coup. In 263 00:15:54,040 --> 00:15:56,840 Speaker 1: contrast to the usual concept of a coup where the 264 00:15:56,880 --> 00:15:59,760 Speaker 1: military is involved and takes over the White House and 265 00:15:59,800 --> 00:16:03,440 Speaker 1: can munication centers, very much like the scenarios you see 266 00:16:03,440 --> 00:16:07,000 Speaker 1: in a movie, this coup was done silently and very 267 00:16:07,040 --> 00:16:12,160 Speaker 1: effectively through two methods. Corruption, and cooptation. The Clintons have 268 00:16:12,240 --> 00:16:17,160 Speaker 1: been involved in co opting our White House, our judiciary, 269 00:16:17,440 --> 00:16:22,520 Speaker 1: our CIA, our Federal Bureau of Investigation. In order to 270 00:16:22,600 --> 00:16:27,160 Speaker 1: stop this coup, we in the intelligence community and others 271 00:16:27,200 --> 00:16:32,160 Speaker 1: involved have informally gotten together and with their permission, I 272 00:16:32,200 --> 00:16:35,360 Speaker 1: am beginning to announce that we've initiated a counter coup. 273 00:16:35,680 --> 00:16:38,480 Speaker 1: We're going to to stop you from making Hillary the 274 00:16:38,520 --> 00:16:41,600 Speaker 1: president of the United States, and at the same time, 275 00:16:42,000 --> 00:16:46,160 Speaker 1: we will convict and indict the President of the United States, 276 00:16:46,640 --> 00:16:49,480 Speaker 1: Loretta Lynch, and many others who were involved in the 277 00:16:49,600 --> 00:16:52,520 Speaker 1: cover up of the massive corruption that occurred under the 278 00:16:52,600 --> 00:16:56,520 Speaker 1: Clinton Foundation. So, as you just heard, Patchennik is making 279 00:16:56,600 --> 00:16:59,480 Speaker 1: this wild claim that the Clintons are operating a deep 280 00:16:59,520 --> 00:17:02,680 Speaker 1: stake who and the secret members of the U. S 281 00:17:02,760 --> 00:17:07,000 Speaker 1: Intelligence community are trying to stop It sounds a lot 282 00:17:07,119 --> 00:17:11,080 Speaker 1: like Queues first posts on four chant. Remember we went 283 00:17:11,119 --> 00:17:14,800 Speaker 1: over them at the beginning. Well. This video by Steve 284 00:17:14,880 --> 00:17:19,919 Speaker 1: Pochenick was published on November one, a year before the 285 00:17:19,960 --> 00:17:24,080 Speaker 1: first ever Q drop. So who is Steve Pochenick? On 286 00:17:24,119 --> 00:17:27,600 Speaker 1: his website, he says that he was the principal international 287 00:17:27,640 --> 00:17:33,520 Speaker 1: crisis manager and hostage negotiator under Henry Kissinger. He claims 288 00:17:33,520 --> 00:17:36,919 Speaker 1: to be that and an action adventure spy thriller author 289 00:17:37,320 --> 00:17:40,439 Speaker 1: working with people like Tom Clancy. As far as I 290 00:17:40,480 --> 00:17:45,000 Speaker 1: see it, Pochenck is your archetypal right wing conspiracy theorist 291 00:17:45,480 --> 00:17:50,480 Speaker 1: and political US Boomer commentator. He enjoys airtime on Alex 292 00:17:50,560 --> 00:17:54,000 Speaker 1: Jones Infools, where he claims him and his network helped 293 00:17:54,000 --> 00:17:57,480 Speaker 1: to get Trump elected. He is a die hard MAGA 294 00:17:57,640 --> 00:18:01,680 Speaker 1: operative here he is speaking to for wars in much 295 00:18:01,800 --> 00:18:04,399 Speaker 1: of this year. But let me ask you this, because 296 00:18:04,440 --> 00:18:07,240 Speaker 1: to the to the general population and to the layman 297 00:18:07,280 --> 00:18:11,600 Speaker 1: out there, it looks like, now, this is the storm 298 00:18:11,640 --> 00:18:15,760 Speaker 1: about to hit. So I think the average American asked, now, 299 00:18:15,840 --> 00:18:18,919 Speaker 1: what is the deep state response to them about to 300 00:18:19,000 --> 00:18:24,679 Speaker 1: be exposed fully and perhaps even put in jail sober Basically, 301 00:18:24,760 --> 00:18:28,679 Speaker 1: we're not even answering it because it's so childish, so immature, 302 00:18:28,920 --> 00:18:31,800 Speaker 1: so ineffectual, that this is the reason why we were 303 00:18:31,840 --> 00:18:35,280 Speaker 1: able to be so successful. Now, I don't actually think 304 00:18:35,320 --> 00:18:38,560 Speaker 1: that Steve Pochenick was behind the initial que drops on fortune, 305 00:18:38,960 --> 00:18:41,400 Speaker 1: but he's certainly within the Q and On universe now 306 00:18:41,640 --> 00:18:45,919 Speaker 1: and could have inadvertently influenced whoever the first que post awards. 307 00:18:46,080 --> 00:18:49,160 Speaker 1: With the things he said in these videos, It's perhaps 308 00:18:49,160 --> 00:18:52,160 Speaker 1: worth noting as well that both Pulled Furber and Steve 309 00:18:52,240 --> 00:18:55,960 Speaker 1: Pochenic follow each other on Twitter, and that Furber has 310 00:18:55,960 --> 00:18:59,879 Speaker 1: tweeted in praise of Pochenic on several occasions. They're both 311 00:19:00,040 --> 00:19:04,840 Speaker 1: openly invested in anti Semitic conspiracy theories, and they both 312 00:19:04,840 --> 00:19:08,280 Speaker 1: claim to be part of an insider operation. Now, this 313 00:19:08,359 --> 00:19:11,080 Speaker 1: is hardly an unusual meeting of the minds and the 314 00:19:11,160 --> 00:19:14,560 Speaker 1: Q and On universe, but considering po Chenick's Clinton Deep 315 00:19:14,600 --> 00:19:19,520 Speaker 1: State video from I think it's worth mentioning, if nothing else, 316 00:19:19,680 --> 00:19:23,080 Speaker 1: we can see that all these ideas were already out there, 317 00:19:23,160 --> 00:19:26,320 Speaker 1: bubbling in the conspiracy theory part. It just took Q 318 00:19:26,440 --> 00:19:28,919 Speaker 1: and On to bring them all together and launched them 319 00:19:28,960 --> 00:19:32,280 Speaker 1: into the mainstream. It was a team effort, even if 320 00:19:32,280 --> 00:19:35,960 Speaker 1: it wasn't calculated to be one. I think again that 321 00:19:36,040 --> 00:19:40,320 Speaker 1: it's highly likely Paul Ferber used his conspiracy theory influences 322 00:19:40,640 --> 00:19:43,840 Speaker 1: to form the Q drops on h N. He take 323 00:19:43,880 --> 00:19:46,200 Speaker 1: a bit from here, a bit from there, and spin 324 00:19:46,280 --> 00:19:50,280 Speaker 1: it himself with cryptic language and the odd intel phrase 325 00:19:50,359 --> 00:19:54,200 Speaker 1: passed in that is, as I mentioned until his empire 326 00:19:54,359 --> 00:20:01,440 Speaker 1: was stolen from him. Next episode will look at how 327 00:20:01,560 --> 00:20:05,040 Speaker 1: QUE was set adrift once again when HM was shut down, 328 00:20:05,480 --> 00:20:08,840 Speaker 1: will go over Paul Furber's new insider and on claims, 329 00:20:09,320 --> 00:20:11,680 Speaker 1: and we'll also start looking into how we think the 330 00:20:11,760 --> 00:20:18,760 Speaker 1: Q account was hijacked from Paul Furber. Q Clearance is 331 00:20:18,800 --> 00:20:21,560 Speaker 1: brought to you by I Heart Radio and Cudaytar Media. 332 00:20:22,280 --> 00:20:25,720 Speaker 1: I'm Jake Hanrahan. You can find me online at Jake 333 00:20:25,920 --> 00:20:31,440 Speaker 1: underscool Hand Rahand. That's h a N A h a N. 334 00:20:32,760 --> 00:20:36,520 Speaker 1: This episode was produced by myself with fact checking by 335 00:20:36,560 --> 00:20:40,160 Speaker 1: Sarah hi Tower. The music is by Sam Black and 336 00:20:40,200 --> 00:20:44,000 Speaker 1: the sound levels were mixed by Thomas Griffin at Splicing 337 00:20:44,000 --> 00:21:01,399 Speaker 1: Block to
