New prophets have stepped into the void left by the December 20, 2020, disappearance of Q, the movement’s founder, proclaiming they would rather drink bleach than receive a lifesaving vaccine in the name of Jesus.

Rather than acknowledge that they had COVID, the far-right influencers suggested they had been targeted by an anthrax attack.

By raising interest rates and stopping the growth in the money supply it stands in the way of further growth in the American economy.
