Summary

Jared Yates Sexton and Nick Hauselman discuss disgraced general Mike Flynn's affirmative response to a question regarding why we can't have a Myanmar-style military coup in the United States. Journalist Justin Glawe (http://twitter.com/justinglawe), who was at the Q Anon convention where Mike Flynn was speaking, joins the show to add more context and discuss how widespread this movement is. Jared then sits down with Marc-André Argentino (http://twitter.com/_MAArgentino), one of the foremost researchers of Q-Anon and online conspiracy theorism, to talk about how very real the Q Anon threat is, as its spread to our leaders and poses a serious threat.
