The QAnon convention has been kicked out of its Dallas venue. Even during a pandemic with the event industry just getting back on its feet, nobody wants to be associated with these people.

Poor Q: Gilley's event venue in Dallas says they've pulled the plug on the upcoming QAnon convention featuring GOP chairman Allen West and U.S. Louie Gohmert. https://buff.ly/3nSuJQi

https://www.dallasobserver.com/news/poor-qanon-john-in-dallas-gilleys-says-its-dropped-controversial-qanon-convention-12015780

The QAnon-linked For God & Country Patriot Roundup keeps getting bigger and bigger. The line-up of speakers includes retired Army Lt. Gen. Michael Flynn, the ex-national security adviser to former President Donald Trump, and Sidney Powell, formerly a lawyer for both Flynn and Trump.

There are even some prominent Texans on the bill, including Texas GOP chairman Allen West and U.S. Rep. Louie Gohmert.

Organized by a group called Patriot Voice, the event is scheduled for May 28-31 and was set to be hosted by Gilley’s Dallas and Omni Dallas Hotel. Gilley’s confirmed to the Observer, however, that the event will not be taking place there. They wouldn’t say why.

Besides a meet and greet at the Omni, most of the convention was supposed to be held at Gilley's. The Omni is mostly just being used as a place for attendees to stay while in Dallas.

Gilley's: "Yeah, that's a big 'no.' Buh-bye."

Q: "WE LEFT OF OUR OWN FREE WILL TO SPARE GILLEY'S ALL THE THREATS AND HARASSMENT FROM ANTIFA DUMP TWITTER & JOIN US ON PARLER SO WE CAN FREELY DISCUSS MASS EXECUTIONS OF ANYONE WHO WON'T VOW FEALTY TO Q REEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE"

Gilley's prolly got concerned about showing up on national news for having Nazi rune stages put up at their venue, a la CPAC, or just endless news clips of idiots parading around on their premises.

and Gilley's said it ain't happening then.

They also said they were going to move here, I hope this puts that to death. There's enough of these yahoo idiots in East Texas we don't need any more.
