Man indicted for threatening to kill congresswoman spouted multiple QAnon conspiracy theories
A New Mexico man who pleaded guilty to threatening to murder a congresswoman is also an avid purveyor of QAnon conspiracy propaganda, according to new reports.
"The plea agreement brought before U.S. Magistrate Judge Damian L. Martinez of U.S. District Court in New Mexico on Thursday has to do with a telephone call Michel David Fox admits making last May to the Houston office of a member of the U.S. House of Representatives," reported Julian Resendiz for Fox 5 News.
Per the court documents, Fox said on the call, “Hey, 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 (expletive deleted) face. You (expletive). You understand me, you (expletive).”
According to the report, after law enforcement traced the call to a cell phone in Las Cruces, FBI agents visited Fox's house, where he admitted to making the call.

Court documents further reveal that Fox said he doesn't actually have any guns — but also professed to be a member of the "Q movement" and believed Q would wipe out "the people who were causing all the world's misery," supposedly a cabal of transgender people who run the world's governments and corporations.
More broadly, the QAnon movement believes that a small circle of elites sex traffics children and consumes their flesh to remain eternally youthful — an idea that has echoes of a more than a century-old antisemitic conspiracy theory.
QAnon believers have been implicated in several acts of violence before; from a man who shot a New York City crime boss, to a California surfing instructor who murdered his own children out of a belief they were "corrupted" by his wife's "serpent DNA."
There are three female members of Congress with offices in Houston who are Democrats: U.S. Reps. Sylvia Garcia, Sheila Jackson Lee and Lizzie Fletcher.
