Curious where all those connections lead to. There's a lot of complicity - all the way up to Trump himself and MAGAphone of hate.

He had a little over 100 followers then. About 30 minutes later he had over 400. Then about 15 minutes after that he had 500.

I think the vast majority of these are new followers since the suspect was identified. There is apparently a way to document when the new followers showed up, but that's waaay over my head.
