QAnon believers are a special breed. They are impossibly able to believe the most absolutely ridiculous nonsense you can imagine. But the thing is, you can’t even imagine this stuff.

Their cult leaders, “Q” and Donald Trump, lie effortlessly and appeal to their hatred.

If you’re not familiar with QAnon by now, the short version is that this is the group you should be thinking of when you hear “Pizzagate.” They literally believe that a cabal of evil Democrats and Hollywood stars are trafficking children for the express purpose of extracting “adrenochrome” from their blood and drinking it to stay young.

Sound like the plot from a movie?

Well, this particular movie turns into a horror pretty quickly. Michael David Fox of New Mexico has admitted to placing a phone call to a Texas member of the US House who he believed was transgender and threatening her life.

How did he know her gender status? He said he “ran her skull features through forensic analysis” and concluded she had been born a man.

The victim, who is not named in the arrest record from May, is referred to as “V1” in court documents. The threat that Fox called in to her was quite explicit:

“Hey [V1], you’re a man. It’s official. You’re literally a tranny and a pedophile, and I’m going to put a bullet in your f*cking face. You mother f*cking satanic c*ck sucking son of a wh*re. You understand me you f*ggot?”

Well then.

Fox admitted that it was his voice on the call, but protested that he didn’t even own any guns.

From the official complaint:

“Fox claimed that he believed Q was going to engage in the ‘eradication’ of the people who were causing all the world’s misery. Fox believed that part of the eradication had already happened. Fox explained that he had run Vl’s skull features through forensic analysis and determined that V1 was born male and is now transgender.

Fox continued to reiterate several different types of conspiracy theories indicating extreme far right ideologies as his explanation for why he conducted the phone call to threaten V1.”

Fox entered a guilty plea for “interstate transmission of threatening communications.”
