>got to wonder if Q has assigned numbers to key players
I think that's probable.
Q does seem to confirm that number two is McCabe.
SEARCH crumbs : [#2] Who is #2? Think McCabe [#2]
Also note there are 12 in that list of HOT, so it may map to hours on the clock. I mean a clock Q asked us to map out using timestamps & deltas. Not the birth-control-pill-box clock that hasn't proven useful or predictive and that Q has not confirmed is legit.
At the least, we know that 9 of the 12 in the HOT list are marked as "pre_D".
So Declas will not be the start of habbenings - it's the public reveal that things are almost all wrapped up.
And about Q's recent "AUGUST" in all caps, he had posted Trump's proclamation on National Preparedness that was signed in August. It was about 'emergencies that test the strength of a nation'.
This also fits with Q's recent "Nature is unpredictable."

And it ties back to Q's "We will be initiating the Emergency Broadcast System (EMS) during this time" in the drop starting with "My fellow Americans".
