QAnon Influencer Accuses Democrats of Being p*dophile. He Hides His Own Conviction With an Alias
By Kristen Doerer | October 27, 2021 1:28 pm
A second-tier QAnon influencer who has baselessly accused high-ranking Democrats of being p*dophile is himself a convicted sex offender, a Right Wing Watch investigation found.
David Todeschini, under the alias of David Trent, operates the Net4Truth BitChute channel with some 21,000 followers, a GoFundMe page for “Christian Ministry and Veteran’s advocacy” featuring QAnon rhetoric, and number of social media pages. Todeschini was also the owner of a YouTube channel that had thousands of followers until that platform purged channels espousing the dangerous QAnon conspiracy theory following the Jan. 6 attack on the U.S. Capitol.
QAnon is a far-right conspiracy theory that posits that a “deep state” made up of high-ranking Democrats, business leaders, and Hollywood figures are operating a satanic child-sex trafficking cult and that former President Donald Trump has been working to bring down the cult. The conspiracy theory has become a movement whose followers are among Trump’s most ardent supporters. Like many other QAnon followers, Todeschini was among those who attended the rally prior to the insurrection on Jan. 6 to keep Trump in office, though it’s unclear whether he was among the cohort that breached the U.S. Capitol.
In his videos, Todeschini calls for Democratic politicians in D.C. to be “taken out at gunpoint,” alleges children are being trafficked, and claims Hillary Clinton, Bill Barr, and others have been convicted of treason and sentenced to hang. The introduction for his videos displays QAnon slogans and the symbol of the Three Percenters, a paramilitary extremist group.
In one video dated Sept. 9, Todeschini railed against a report that President Joe Biden would require federal government employees to be vaccinated, stating, “Why this country hasn’t risen up and hung these bastards by now is beyond me.” He added, “These treasonous rat bastards need to be taken out of Washington, D.C. I say get all the children out and nuke it for .” The title of that video accused Biden of being a “Cho-mo”—prison slang for a p*dophile.
In another video dated Aug. 14, Todeschini and fellow conspiracy theorist “Stoney Stone” interviewed “mini” Mike Lindell—a 13-year-old whose hero appears to be election conspiracy theorist Mike Lindell—complimenting him for being “well spoken” and for his passion for politics.
But the 70-year-old Todeschini is a convicted sex offender—a level three threat, according to New York sex offender registry, meaning that he is at “high risk of repeat offense and a threat to public safety exists.” That registry categorizes him as a “sexually violent offender.” Todeschini was convicted in 1999 of coercing an 8-year-old boy into s*xual acts three years earlier.
RWW was tipped off to Todeschini’s record via Gabe Hoffman, owner and producer of the documentary “An Open Secret.”

Alec Baldwin accidently kills a woman and wounds a director on set by firing a prop gun on set

Sheriff: Baldwin fired shot on movie set that killed woman
By MORGAN LEE and WALTER BERRY
Thu, October 21, 2021, 8:45 PM
SANTA FE, N.M. (AP) — Authorities are investigating after confirming that a prop firearm discharged by actor Alec Baldwin, while producing and starring in a Western movie, killed the cinematographer and wounded the director.
Santa Fe County Sheriff’s officials said Halyna Hutchins, cinematographer on the movie “Rust,” and director Joel Souza were shot Thursday on the rustic film set in the desert on the southern outskirts of Santa Fe.
Hutchins, 42, was airlifted to the University of New Mexico Hospital, where she was pronounced dead by medical personnel, the sheriff's department said.
Souza, 48, was taken by ambulance to Christus St. Vincent Regional Medical Center, where he is undergoing treatment for his injuries.
Production was halted on the film.
A spokesperson for Baldwin said there was an accident on the set involving the misfire of a prop gun with blanks, though a charge without a metal projectile is unlikely to kill at a moderate distance.
The Santa Fe New Mexican reported the 63-year-old Baldwin was seen Thursday outside the sheriff’s office in tears, but attempts to get comment from him were unsuccessful.
The International Cinematographers Guild confirmed that the woman fatally shot was Hutchins, a cinematographer.
“The details are unclear at this moment, but we are working to learn more, and we support a full investigation into this tragic event,” guild president John Lindley and executive director Rebecca Rhine said in a statement.
Hutchins, a 2015 graduate of the American Film Institute, worked as director of photography on the 2020 action film “Archenemy,” starring Joe Manganiello. She was named a “rising star” by American Cinematographer in 2019.
“I’m so sad about losing Halyna. And so infuriated that this could happen on a set,” said “Archenemy” director Adam Egypt Mortimer on Twitter. “She was a brilliant talent who was absolutely committed to art and to film.”
Film colleague Manganiello called her “an incredible talent” and “a great person” on his Instagram account. He said he was lucky to have worked with Hutchins.
Baldwin teamed up as a producer previously with Souza on the 2019 film, “Crown Vic,” which starred Thomas Jane as a veteran Los Angeles police officer on a manhunt for two violent bank robbers. His first credited film, 2010’s “Hanna’s Gold,” was a treasure hunt adventure featuring Luke Perry.
Deputies responded about 2 p.m. to the movie set at the Bonanza Creek Ranch after 911 calls described a person being shot on set, sheriff’s spokesman Juan Rios said. The ranch has been used in dozens of films, including the recent Tom Hanks Western “News of the World.”
Rios said detectives were investigating how and what type of projectile was discharged.
“This investigation remains open and active,” Rios said in a statement. “No charges have been filed in regard to this incident. Witnesses continue to be interviewed by detectives.”
Filming for “Rust” was set to continue into early November, according to a news release from the New Mexico Film Office.
The movie is about a 13-year-old boy who is left to fend for himself and his younger brother following the death of their parents in 1880s' Kansas, according to the Internet Movie Database website. The teen goes on the run with his long-estranged grandfather (played by Baldwin) after the boy is sentenced to hang for the accidental killing of a local rancher.
In 1993, Brandon Lee, 28, son of the late martial-arts star Bruce Lee, died after being hit by a .44-caliber slug while filming a death scene for the movie “The Crow.” The gun was supposed to have fired a blank, but an autopsy turned up a bullet lodged near his spine...

Dr Judy Mikovits is a discredited scientist who has been proven to lie and fake research.
Dr Judy Mikovits is a discredited scientist who has been proven to lie and fake research (sacked for a research position for falsifying a report), why anyone would use her as a source of information is mind-boggling.
A simple search online comes up with pages of information from both left and right political bias showing that Mikovits is a discredited scientist using lies to gain financial assistance from the likes of QAnon.
In late 2008, a graduate student, who subsequently was hired by Mikovits as her technician, obtained two positive results from a group of twenty samples. He and Mikovits successively altered the experimental conditions until all samples gave a positive signal.
So a proven liar is yet again used as a means to spread more lies and false information on social media.

Dr. Birx testifies before Congress, that over 130,000 lives could have been saved

Trump's White House ignored advice on COVID-19 that could've saved over 130,000 lives, Birx said

Trump's COVID-19 response led to many preventable deaths, Deborah Birx told House lawmakers.
Over 130,000 lives could've been saved if Trump's White House followed the science, she said.
Birx also testified that the 2020 election distracted Trump from the pandemic.
Dr. Deborah Birx, the former White House COVID-19 response coordinator, in testimony to the House select subcommittee on the coronavirus crisis said that former President Donald Trump's approach to the pandemic led to a massive number of preventable deaths.
"No," Birx said when asked if Trump did everything in his power to curb the spread and save lives, per excerpts of her testimony released by the committee on Tuesday.
"And I've said that to the White House in general, and I believe I was very clear to the president in specifics of what I needed him to do," she added.
Birx, who testified before the committee in mid-October, said that over 130,000 lives could've been saved in the early stages of the pandemic had Trump's White House adhered to the science and pushed for measures advocated by experts.
"I believe if we had fully implemented the mask mandates, the reduction in indoor dining, the getting friends and family to understand the risk of gathering in private homes, and we had increased testing, that we probably could have decreased fatalities into the 30% less to 40% less range," Birx said.
She also suggested that the 2020 election distracted Trump and took attention away from the nation's pandemic response.
"The governors and mayors and others that were campaigning, as well as the White House that was campaigning, just took people's time away from and distracted them away from the pandemic in my personal opinion," Birx said. "They were actively campaigning and not as present in the White House as previously."
Trump did not immediately respond to a request for comment from Insider.
From the earliest days of the pandemic, Trump downplayed the threat of COVID-19 and repeatedly spread misinformation on the virus. He routinely pushed against public health recommendations, including wearing a mask or face covering. Trump during an interview with veteran journalist Bob Woodward admitted that he deliberately sought to downplay the dangers of the virus in an effort to avoid inducing "panic."
Top public health experts have excoriated Trump over his pandemic response, saying that his approach led to tens of thousands of unnecessary deaths.
By the time Trump left office, there had been over 400,000 reported COVID-19 deaths in the US.

If not Traitor Joe, then Who's in Charge?
Even in his younger years, Joe Biden was a congenital liar, a groper, a sniffer and served mostly himself (and now his Chi-Com masters), rather than the Americans he supposedly represented. Now, it's abundantly clear that Joe's brain is well past its sell-by date. If he's not in charge, then who is?
No sooner than he seized power he set about the task of sabotaging the country -- destroying our energy independence, implementing job-killing measures, inviting in an unending stream of Third World dregs, the Afghanistan atrocity of abandoning thousands of Americans and erstwhile allies to the Taliban hyenas... the list goes on. If you puposely wanted to dismantle America, you would do exactly what he's been doing.
The man can't put together a cogent sentence but does refer to those who tell him what he can and cannot do. These circumstances indicate that Joe Biden, -- in addition to all his other failings -- is someone else's puppet.

The Horrendous Trump "so-called" presidency still in the news and not for good things

In response to:
Donald Trump could be charged with multiple crimes over his attempts to overturn his loss in the state of Georgia, report says
Alia Shoaib and John L. Dorman
Donald Trump could be charged with crimes over Georgia election interference, a new report says.
The report says Trump and his allies pressured Georgia officials to overturn his loss in the state.
Trump is facing several probes in relation to his postelection conduct in Georgia.
Former President Donald Trump could be charged with multiple crimes over election interference in Georgia, a new analysis says.
The report by the Brookings Institution, a leading think tank in Washington, DC, analyzed publicly available evidence which showed that Trump and his allies attempted to pressure Georgia officials to "change the lawful outcome of the election."
A key piece of evidence is the now-infamous call made by Trump to Republican Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger on January 3, where the former president told him to "find 11,780 votes" to overturn now-President Joe Biden's victory in the state.
"There's no way I lost Georgia," Trump repeatedly said throughout the call. "There's no way. We won by hundreds of thousands of votes."
Those assertions were false, as Biden won the state by nearly 12,000 votes, becoming the first Democratic presidential nominee to carry the longtime Republican stronghold since 1992.
The report added that Trump publicly pressured and personally contacted several other Republican officials in Georgia to ask for their help in overturning his electoral loss in the state, including Gov. Brian Kemp and Attorney General Chris Carr. Trump reportedly placed direct calls to the officials in December to urge them to go along with "his increasingly desperate plans to decertify his loss."
"We conclude that Trump's postelection conduct in Georgia leaves him at substantial risk of possible state charges predicated on multiple crimes," the report said. "These charges potentially include criminal solicitation to commit election fraud; intentional interference with performance of election duties; conspiracy to commit election fraud; criminal solicitation; and state RICO violations."
The report also added that criminal liability could extend to some Trump allies, including his former personal lawyer, Rudy Giuliani.
Giuliani appeared before committees in the Georgia Capitol with the intent of convincing state lawmakers to "take extraordinary action to reverse Biden's win," the report notes.
In February, Raffensperger's office opened a probe into Trump's efforts to overturn his loss in the state.
Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis also launched a criminal investigation into Trump's conduct related to the election.
The Brookings Institution report analyzed these probes and suggests the crimes that Trump could be charged with, along with his legal defenses.
The report suggests that Trump would likely claim immunity, arguing that he cannot be prosecuted for actions taken while he was in office.
Former presidents enjoy a measure of immunity for actions taken that "fall within the scope of their lawful duties as a federal official," according to the report.
However, in this case, Trump's actions were "well outside the scope of his official duties," the report noted.
For months, Trump has continued to promote debunked claims that the 2020 election was fraudulent, speaking of ballots coming from ceilings and pushing for forensic vote audits in closely-contested states like Arizona and Wisconsin.
The former president is currently facing several criminal probes over his conduct while in office, as well as his personal finances.

Tunnels -stuff you didn’t know-
Anybody who knows me will tell you that, once I get started, I can talk about old railways tunnels until the cows come home. I know many people will roll their eyes at this, but that is because they just don’t realise the possibilities and potential of an abandoned tunnel. Did you know, for instance, that a railway tunnel can be converted into a portal direct to Hell? It isn’t even all that difficult. A team of six committed men have been known to complete such a conversion over a weekend. Even tunnels that are not suitable for conversion to portals have a use; they come in very handy as overflow storage for abducted children.
The tunnel portals do not, of course, facilitate movement between our world and the lower one on a large scale, but they form a very important part of a growing communication network. In order to achieve our ultimate ambition, it is vital that there is unrestricted liaison between the two domains. When the day of The Coming arrives, the armies of Satan will enter our world through the Great Portal, of course, which is located at Cern.

US military says it killed al-Qaida leader in drone strike
Fri, October 22, 2021, 11:14 PM
WASHINGTON (AP) — The U.S. military says it killed a senior al-Qaida leader in an airstrike Friday in northwest Syria.
Army Maj. John Rigsbee, a spokesman for U.S. Central Command, said in a statement that Abdul Hamid al-Matar was killed by a drone strike.
Rigsbee said the killing of al-Matar will disrupt al-Qaida's “ability to further plot and carry out global attacks threatening U.S. citizens, our partners, and innocent civilians."
He said al-Qaida “uses Syria as a base for threats reaching into Syria, Iraq and beyond.”
The drone strike came two days after a U.S. military outpost in southern Syria was hit by a coordinated attack that included drones and rockets. U.S. officials said no American troops stationed there were injured or killed.

He said al-Qaida “uses Syria as a base for threats reaching into Syria, Iraq and beyond.”
The drone strike came two days after a U.S. military outpost in southern Syria was hit by a coordinated attack that included drones and rockets. U.S. officials said no American troops stationed there were injured or killed.
