Ann Vandersteel: QAnon Is Part of the Trump Campaign’s ‘Comprehensive Media Strategy’ for 2020

While seeing what the MSM has been saying about Q lately, I ran across this RWW article posted Friday but not notable. Deserves moar attention, for two reasons:

(1) RWW tracks us very closely (via Jared Holt); they need tracking too

(2) the focus is on Ann Vandersteel, who is making unusual claims about Q and POTUS 2020 campaign.

EXCERPT

"Ann Vandersteel, a right-wing conspiracy theorist who serves as president of the YourVoice America network, appeared yesterday on a livestream known as “The Patriots’ Soapbox,” where she spent two hours promoting QAnon/sex trafficking/pedophilia conspiracy theories before casually mentioning that she is a spokesperson for President Trump’s 2020 re-election campaign.

"Following that revelation, Vandersteel took a call from a listener who urged her to use her “pull” with Trump to get him to talk more about these conspiracy theories, to which she replied that she is confident that the campaign “has a really comprehensive media strategy” lined-up to spread these claims, and that QAnon is a key part of the plan to “prepare the public for what’s coming.”

“I’m pretty sure there is a very comprehensive strategy about the way they are going to roll out this sort of information,” she said. “Q has been preparing a lot of people … This is about preparing your next door neighbor who can give two rats about politics. They may be a liberal, but when they hear the fact that Hillary Clinton was doing the horrible things that she was doing that are evidenced on Anthony Weiner’s laptop, when they start to find out about that stuff, the disbelief is going to be over the top.”

Anons hope her claims are true. But Vandersteel is a questionable source for insider info–part of Bill Mitchell's YourVoice America. Remember in Sept, when she and 2 others claimed to know 120 intel insiders? Nothing came of it; weirdness be here (see >>2905954).

Vandersteel's Linked-in profile lists her as part of the Trump Campaign 2020 Media Advisory Board (see Cap); account doesn't look very active, tho.

Interviewed Bill Binney at the end of October (see >>3663987 for notes).

WaPo says the "Media Board" has only two members–Gina Loudon & Bruce LeVell (no mention of Vandersteel).

Vandersteel claims to speak for the 2020 Trump Campaign but says things that no one else does. The People for the American Way (RightWing Watch) get hold of it and write articles to discredit Q and POTUS.

We need to know WTF is going on.

DIGG anyone???

Have some questions

I would research but you're here, maybe you can fill in a few blanks

What I'd like to do is a revised graphic like this one but with your new info to the extent possible, either now or soon, depending on whether there's enough on RELATIONSHIPS to make the links.

I'll get back in a few minutes with the Qs, here are the latest two version of the chart, slightly different emphasis. Could drop the ASD "branch" if needed.

RE ALABAMA Election Meddling

>>4858211 PAST BREAD

Of the questions below, many are for purposes of exploration. But if you know the answer to #1 or #2, that would be very helpful.

Questions

1. Maybe i was just going down a different track but don't know relationship of Jared Cohen and Camille Francois to Jonathon Morgan et al. Are they linked thru the Senate report, some other way?

1. Is Jigsaw linked to New Knowledge? How?

1. Fancy title for Jonathon, "digital counter-terrorism advisor," seems bogus as usual…like Hamilton 68. Why is H68 still used, by the way? Version 2.0 now out I think. Yet I read it had been debunked. Need a dig on this, Zerohedge is probably the best place to start.

(all these methods using cluster analysis are–well, like a clusterfuck. The Left is trying to make inflated claims for correlational data.)

1. Ryan Fox & Diresta. Ok, they are at New Knowledge. Last night, when I was reading articles, I noticed that Morgan STRESSED the fact that he was NOT doing the Alabama project in connection with New Knowledge, but on his own. WHY??? Why doesn't he want his work associated with NK? What or who is he trying to protect?

1. Yet I recall another article (maybe the Fox one) that said Diresta's name was on the report. "RECONCILE". If NK didn't do the project, why is the name on the report?

1. Very confusing about these reports; there seem to be at least two of them, although none of them is really available (except for the 6 pages that look like someone fished them out of the trash). No idea what the title is, whether it's Diresta's or somebody else's. WaPo is very coy about where they got it; maybe Buzzfeed? They are also coy.

1. Diresta: she was combatting ISIS propaganda? Gee, wonder who she's working for, since Obama admin has so much to do with ISIS. Deep rabbit hole there. She is someone trying to make vaccinations MANDATORY in Cali.

1. Where does Mehlhorn come in? What kind of work does he do for Hoffman? (Don't ask, maybe….)

1. Sorry links don't work in the new list, can probably fix, I think it's a formatting thing.

."trickling out to normies

If RWW has their way, we'll look like complete loons to normies. Ann Vandesteel–what the heck is she trying to do? Sometimes "friends" are worse than enemies.

>>4859144

Could the name be made up? There is something about her and the group she's with that seems very artificial. Funny–Stalin's name means "steel"–and it's a madeup name.

>>4859146

Always enjoy this beautiful angel and her small companion. KEK.

>>4859139

Re the Marshall Plan

Part of the Alabama digg, but we haven't gotten around to looking hard at it–and it's probably the key to so much. %5 of the Marshall Plan funds would be a LOT of cash. Sounds like it's been–and probably continues to be–a great slush fund for CIA black ops.

And just look at all the people on the board for Alliance for Securing Democracy (you saw the chart, yes?), including Podesta. Looks like a rogue's gallery.

>>4859195

The group is BIG into image–very slick, don't trust them. Bill Mitchell's voice is like squeaky chalk on a blackboard; creepy. That's why I wondered if the name was chosen for effect.

>>4859199

You can fucking go digg, anon. I dug all evening, all last evening. I'm digging right now, on this board, talking to people, asking/answering questions. You go dig on ASD, Marshall Plan–let us know what you find. Better than complaining, isn't it?

>>4859207

I am so glad he has her. She is remarkable.

>>4859239

The stuff about the C_A–you think you'll get to the bottom of it but every bottom is false, keep falling thru. I see why it has to be taken apart; it was never meant to be anything other than a completely corrupt entity.

>>4859073

they love democracy but hate republics. "power to the people" (for about a year–then down comes the ax)

>>4859139

this is

notable

too

Great intro to fucking Marshall Plan

>>4859273

Alliance for Security Democracy & Marshall Fund

Funny, this dig all started with a little bit of Alabama fuckery–and now we're in Europe with ASD (full of worse DEMS and neo-con GOPs), which is a recent "project" of the Marshall Plan. Both the top people in ASD are part of the "parent" organization; they go on a lot of talk shows together.

Just found two very short creepy videos from ASD. Wow. There's another one I'll attach. So weird.

Neither embeds; but they are like under half a minute. Take a look.

DJT tweet:

"The Democrats are playing politics with Border Security."

Yes, this message IS obvious. So that can't be the message.

@foxandfriends….hmmm

POTUS is rather like a fox–sly and subtle. Who are his "friends"??

thx for #1 and #2.

#3: Hamilton68: if MSM wanted, they could discredit this, the data is out there, it gets referred to. They're not trying.

#4 Re "NO connection with New Knowledge":

can't lay my hands on that article, but I am positive I saw it just yesterday. Will try again before end of bread God willing.

#5 Fox article talks about Diresta's name on report.

"He reportedly contacted Renée DiResta, who later joined his company and became the leading author of the report about the Russian interference efforts for the firm"…

#6 re Wapo article and white hats:

I'm still thinking Wapo's not the main player here, look at the Sputnik comment (among others):

The New York Times first revealed the company's efforts to sway a special Senate election in Alabama in 2017 with a black ops disinformation campaign involving messaging aimed at splitting the Republican vote and a self-professed "false flag" operation involving Twitter accounts designed to give the appearance of being Russian bots following the Republican candidate Roy Moore en masse.

https://sputniknews.com/us/201812281071079929-New-Knowledge-Brags-Affecting-Vote/

That's what everybody thinks. I don't get it, but there it is. Why would WaPo take a back seat?

Just found the answer to my question. Ran into the World Socialist article (first time). Look:

The story was first reported by the Washington Post on December 18 and the New York Times on December 19. Only a day earlier, both newspapers had carried lead front-page articles based largely on a New Knowledge report that claimed to provide new evidence of Russian social media operations to influence American politics.

https://www.wsws.org/en/articles/2018/12/31/know-d31.html

So WaPo "ducked away" (deemphasizing the story) and NYT "broke" it. Both were trying to make people forget they ran the OPPOSITE story one day beforehand!

#6 Info on report(s) is still MIA

#7 Agree about need for more digging on Diresta

#8 "politcal advisor"; does that mean "handler"?

#9 Yes, I did that list. Just looked at archive, no live links there; I copy pasta'd the dead ones. Kek. Did you do the original or someone else?

would be nice to have live links obviously but have not figured out out how all the techincal 8chan stuff works, lots of reseach previously but not like this.

1. Re backing for H68: yes, I know Marshall Fund backed it financially

Thanks for replying, crazy night, just followed a link a got malicious attack. Anon said he's not a good researcher, maybe someone else can do it? Hmmm, maybe check it out…..

Will try to find out where Jonathon said "It was only me, not NK"

>>4859619

>>4859623

I found at least one mention of Jonathon's saying New Knowledge was not involved; there may be another, not sure.

TOP-KEK. (Don't care whether you made it or stole it.)

>>4859596

Now why did you have to bring in a bunch of new names, anon? Every time this digg looks like it's about done, a bunch of new names, new orgs, and new bad activities shows up. Now it looks like we've got the investors. Kek.

Way too much fruitful infomation. And now I'm reading that this guy Kelly P won The Apprentice??? What are the chances??

No wonder Q hasn't shown up lately. Gave us enough material to digg on for a lifetime.
