A congressional contender in Texas who attended the Jan. 6, 2021 Capitol riot is a prolific spreader of QAnon conspiracy theories. Jason “Storm” Nelson has frequently expressed these views on social media and in recent appearances on the podcasts of prominent QAnon followers.
Nelson moved to Texas last year. In September, he tweeted that he’d told his daughter they moved so she could go to a good school. In April, he wrote he felt compelled to tell Texans who asked why they moved there that “we vote the way they live their lives.”
This week, Media Matters reported that Nelson had appeared on a QAnon supporter’s show, where he praised the conspiracy theory for highlighting child trafficking and corruption in government.
He also said QAnon has never been wrong.
The Daily Dot found that Nelson has been expressing QAnon-esque beliefs about mass conspiracies, pedophiles, and false flags for years.
